SoulWeaver Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 ...I...actually contemplated the possibility of a Genealogy movie franchise('Sigurd, Prince of Chalphy' and its sequel, 'Seliph, Scion of Light') just yesterday, so this isn't too out there for me.

Dayni Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 (edited) As someone who's had the thought of putting lyrics to Doors of Destiny, not all that farfetched. Also interesting that only villains and Lewyn get solos. Edited September 10, 2018 by Dayni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interdimensional Observer Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I once considered the possibility of an FE4 opera, albeit without anything in song details. Sigurd et Arvis would be its name. Followed possibly by a sequel, Emperor Arvis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthR0xas Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Honestly, I'd be down to write some lyrics for those songs, in my free time that I currently do not have. Really cool idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthR0xas Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) You know what, screw sleep. I'm going to write the opening song. Before diving into lyrics, understand that these might not sync up that well, and I'm not putting these to sheet music since I don't have sheet music from the Genealogy games. The first problem I came into was the song itself. Genealogy's soundtrack has around 120 songs, which leaves around 60 per generation. Here's a link to the soundtrack for the curious https://serenesforest.net/music/genealogy-of-the-holy-war-original-soundtrack/ Anyways, Genealogy has two opening songs, the Fire Emblem Theme, and Beginning. While beginning has a fitting name, I chose the Fire Emblem Theme for two reasons. 1. It is significantly more iconic, memorable, and a better tune than beginning for a big opener. 2. It's longer, and opening songs normally sport one of the longest lengths from what I've seen. For simplicity sake, basses are labeled with B, Tenor with T, Altos with A, and Sopranos with S. E is for everyone. When we get to specific characters, I'll use their first initial to note them, but that comes later. I'd also recommend listening to the song while reading the lyrics, as without them it just kinda doesn't work (although I will fully admit I came up with some odd lyrics) With all of that out of the way, I give you the opener, which since you didn't name it, I gave it the name "The Holy War". The Holy War B - Ho-ly T - Ho-ly A - Hol-y S - Ho-o-ly S - Oh that war, swept across the land (Drums Start) E - Fi-ire E-hem-blem, Heroes desend from blood-lines, out comes the generations now, and for a time T - Fi-ire Ee-mblem A - ooh hoo hoo T - who, hath you brought for-orwards A - For-or-wards T+A - De-cendants laden with strife, and at what cost S - Oh these heroes, fight through the mel-ody trying to find whaaat, is their pur-pose B+T - Yes these heroes fight on with might, of a thousand spears that never rest E - Fi-ire E-hemblem though fi-ers consume you, lead me to-day so that I, may find the light B - Fi-ire Em-bulem S - The em-blem B+S - will never falter (Soprano goes up the note) B+S - and it will be right here, forever more S - Though the Lopto, they try to con-ciel you, know that your dawn will always shine B+T+A - Bloodlines kneel before you, to ensure that your heavenly light shines E - Fi-ire E-hemblem wea-pons forged in your name, heroes they bleed, but it won't be done in vain. T - Fi-ire E-hemblem A - Oh emblem T+A - we must adore (Altos climb the note) T+A - you, for the things that you have, gi-ven us all B - Fiiii-ire Emblem T- Oh ho ho B+T - Fiiii-ire Emblem A - Oh ho ho B+T+A - Fiiii-ire Emblem T - Ho-ly wars it cau-ses but we, fight through the pau-ses (repeat with Sopranos joining in on the second time) S - Fi-ire Emblem Gene-ee-ology of the Holy War Starts E - NOW (Basses hold longer than everyone else) And that is song one of whatever crazy number that is. Coming up with lyrics to sixteen-bit jingles is way harder than I though it would be, but it's a good challenge. Come back next time to hear Sigurd's opening song, "The First Steps" Edited September 11, 2018 by DarthR0xas formatting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corrobin Posted September 11, 2018 Author Share Posted September 11, 2018 This is happening. THIS IS HAPPENING. Thank you so much, Darth! I'll assist with extra lore details as well as the second generation's songs to help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthR0xas Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Alright, here's song number two. Simple stuff, S is for Sigurd, Al for Alec, N for noish, and Ar for Arden. If I use one A, it means both of them, since I have to cut corners somewhere. V is for a verdane soldier E still stands for Everyone. Lex will also make an appearance (represented by L), but that's more to make for a better connection to part two of this four part song thing. Used the song "Prologue" here, for obvious reasons Off We Go: The First Steps (Three second opener, probably a small trumpet solo) S - Ho men, we're off to ba-ttle A+N - To Ba-ttle S - Jug-dral re-qu-ires our mi-ght A+N - Our mi-ght (same time as previous line) S - Pu-sh on and show that E - We a-har the on-ly light, so we must move on and fight Al - Ar-den, why are you so damn slow? Rush to reach us now! Ar - Al-ec I'll make you eat those words, my de-fence is true S - Men cut with the pointless chats (drum), time to slay these Verdane rats. N - What Lord Si-gurd said is true, Al-ec hand me that jav-a-lin Al - No way, I could never V - HA cau-aught you in my trap! Surr-round them you paid riff-raff. S - Gods no, this can't be our ending, we have grea-ter heights. Ar - Don't fal-ter sir, we're still standing Al+N - We won't flee the fight S - Thanks men, but we're all still trapped, support-less and all a-round sapped (Song abruptly stops) L - You're not support-less for long my friend (Transition into part two) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthR0xas Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 (edited) Finally got time to continue writing these songs. Next song is "Recruitment" with Lex (L), Avel (AV), and Arvis (AR). Sigurd comes in as well, represented by (S) Reinforcements Single bass note L - Av-el come on our friends are stan-ding right there AV - Sir Lex please just slow down, we've been marching so long L - Jeez boy it's not that hard but L - If we must stop AV - Yes we must L - Here should be fine AV - But what about the Together L - Bandits? Oh ho this will be in-ter-es-ting, just take my axe and SWING AV - Bandits? Looting, raiding, how bar-baric. light a fi-i-ire and BURN Spotlight shifts from Lex and Avel to Arvis AR - There goes my bro-ther off to fight a damned war that, he wasn't invited to. Spotlight shines on both of them, as Lex and Avel bicker AR - If I must help L - Head westward. AR- Can't pick a side AV - No eastward AR - Plans un-hinging I must find a way to insure that my he survives L + AV - Fine split up and take them from all sides that they all die. L - Ho Sigurd S - What's up friend? L - Fighting on in the end S - I cannot thank you enough AV - Hey I'm here too. S - Yes you are AV - Noble and true S+L - Not a doubt in my mind AV - use my powers to ensure that victory occurs with Lex too. S + L - Fight on with the goals combined of Lords who are out to prove. Song comes to a close AR - Lord Sigurd! S - Lord Arvis, whatever are you doing so far from Castle (forgot its name)? AR - Well someone needs took keep an eye on Avel, although I can't stay here long. S - No need to bother, I'll keep a close eye on the boy. AR - My gratitude is immeasurable, please take this sword as thanks for the further care of him. S - Is this a Silver Sword? You flatter me Lord Arvis, this sword is far too pristine for a prince lowly as I. AR - Nonsense Sir Sigurd, take it with good faith, I'll be off now, best of luck with Verdane. Arvis walks offstage S - Arvis, such a weird fellow. Can't focus on him now, there are bandit pouring out of that castle, even with the boosted manpower I don't think it'll be enough to handle it. If only Quan and Ethlin were here, they always have my back. Ethlin: Brother, don't think that now is any different.
