WINDS ONLY

Our mind is set into a poorly run kingdom, where an evil king driven by power has pulled his countrymen into a time of ruin. The opening fanfare introduces this place and brings the listener into a day to day feeling of uncertainty in the following phrase. Suddenly, a dissonant phrase pulls us out of time as the evil king demonstrates his abuse of power. This brings us to the mid-section of the piece which introduces a new character, a young noble with their heart set on becoming a knight in hopes to help the people around him. This phrase builds as they continue to be more and more influential within the kingdom and movement ends with this noble brought before the evil king, with no knowledge of what they've done... or what he'll do next. 

With determination and skill, the squire navigates the aristocratic world of knights, love, and honor, all while striving to overcome societal barriers and fulfill his destiny in a captivating tale of bravery, courage, and self-discovery.

A rebellion is beginning at the start of Part 4.
Directly after learning the news of the swordmaker rising again with the intentions or a rematch, the High Knight tries to turn other knights against
them. This dissonance between them is felt throughout the kingdom, which causes the people to storm the castle. The swordmaker makes is through to the throne room to confront the High Knight and the fight begins. The people make it to the throne room in enough time to witness the swordmaker defeat the High Knight. The "realm theme" begins again with chimes ringing signaling the heroing victory. The Evil King gives the swordmaker his crown to spare himself from a people that have had enough.

The swordmaker becomes the new king!

Part 3 begins with friends helping the swordmaker get to a doctor. It's uncertain of how bad the wound is, but he pulls through and wakes from a long sleep.
The flute solo represents the people's love for the swordmaker. Many come to check on him and return the help that he has given them for so long.
This motive grows into a middle fanfare representing the swordmaker's honor. He is well enough to stand up for the people again and has chosen to do so. This moment feels religious as they are putting their faith back into him for protection, in hopes for a better day. The ending fanfare swells as the people return their love and appreciation to them.

Part 2 begins with an ominous tone and with the audible panic from our swordmaker. A short lament from a tuba soloist is played as the panic
overwhelms them. A fanfare sounds as the King addresses them.

"You think undermining me will change ANYTHING!
You will NOT take this kingdom from ME!"

As those words are said the High Knight attacks the swordmaker.
The battle commences and they prove to be equally matched, but the High Knight catches them off guard with a hidden dagger. The movement ends with the High Knight leaving as the tuba lament plays again... leaving the swordmaker heavily wounded.

In Part 1, our mind is set into a poorly run kingdom. An evil king driven by power has pulled his countrymen into a time of ruin. The opening fanfare
introduces this place and brings the listener into a day to day feeling of uncertainty in the following phrase. Suddenly, a dissonant phrase pulls us out of time as the evil king demonstrates his abuse of power. This brings us to the mid-section of the piece which introduces a new character through an alto saxophone solo, a young noble swordmaker with their heart set on becoming a knight in hopes to help the people around him. This phrase builds as they continue to be more and more influential within the kingdom. The movement ends with this noble brought before the evil king and their High Knight, with no knowledge of what they've done... or what he'll do next.
