Hero's Journey

Submission for the OST Miningame music jam

Piece 1/4 - McGuffin

This piece attempts to give ambience of the secluded cave, perhaps something along the lines of "Cave of Frozen Time".
Within the said cave, our hero is supposed to obtain McGuffin - whether it's a new power, an artifact, or a spell, is up for your imagination.
The piece establishes tonal center through the Whole Tone Scale, settling in the harmony, letting melodic parts to break free by exploring passibng dissonant and consonant sounds.

Piece 2/4 - Allons-y

This piece accompanies our Hero on his journey to get to the enemies.
Now, with McGuffin in hand, nothing can stop him.
However, between the notes of the melody, there lurks a bit of uneasyness; as perhaps expected while going for the Big Bad Boss.

Piece 3/4 - Confrontation

Time for our Hero to face his adversary.
But - OH NO!
It was a Twist Villain all along!
Will our Hero prevail?

Piece 4/4 - Homecoming

Last piece in the series, probably could also be the first - because of the circular nature of the Monomyth.
It's a very jolly, whimsical theme.
It gives us vibe of an rustical village, that our Hero defended from the Villain.
Thanks to his hard work, everything is back to normal and people are happy.
