There is a girl here. She clutches something to her chest and stares at the fireplace, where a cascade of soot falls. Soot and ash are grime and dirt to the world, but to her they fall as black stardust, the billowing particles floating around a contrast to the white snow outside.

She is six years old, and the world is still a playground.

I am using LMMS and some sound fonts I found online.  I don't know anything about music theory, so I don't have much process. I just have to force myself to sit down and fool with it until I have something that is not completely unlistenable.  This usually takes me several sittings at least, then I am likely to go back and tweak it repeatedly over time after seeing how it plays in-game.

The biggest difficulty I have is with choosing instruments that aren't piercingly awful.  Not sure if I've selected unsuitable sound fonts or if I am just using them poorly.  Second to that is just not making the track too short or repetitive.

Supermarket, people tend to be a bit desperate when they come to pawn shops and dealing with a lot of desperate magic users sounds dangerous.


Feanor or Celebrimbor?

You become so good at singing that it drives people mad much like a siren, and have to spend far too much time explaining why anyone within earshot loses brain function and vaguely mesmerically wanders in your direction, screwing up whatever they were supposed to be doing (car singing is definitely out of the question). It's a real pain.

I wish I had a second key for my flat again.
