[EmpathP] Lullaby of the False Hydra [Original Fan Song]
I CURRENTLY HAVE A KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN ONGOING FOR D&D X KIRBY PINS! CHECK THEM OUT HERE:
Hello my friends! Today I bring you a small but special song which is planned to be a bonus track on my upcoming album “Fossils“.
This song is inspired off an unofficial monster from D&D called The False Hydra. It’s a terrifying, man-eating creature with multiple eyeless heads which crawls from the depths beneath villages and towns. The first thing it does upon emerging from below and raising it’s grizzly heads is begin singing a song that warps the perception and memories of those around. It uses this to its advantage to begin feeding on the helpless beings of wherever it chooses to nest. So complete is it’s ability to warp other’s perceptions of reality that people completely forget the ones who have been eaten by the monster, as if they were never there. And it continues to grow more and more heads as it feeds, each head taking on the vague resemblance of its victims.
I wanted to write a song based off this lore, in a “What might the monster’s song sound like?“ type way. I hope you guys enjoy!
Side note: it’s been about 15 years since I last took Latin, so apologies to any scholars who may watch if my Latin is incorrect XD I couldn’t find anyone who specializes in the language to double check my lyrics.
