{"product_id":"purcell-echoes-of-a-forgotten-kingdom","title":"Echoes of a Forgotten Kingdom","description":"\u003cp\u003eStories have always captured my imagination. From childhood bedtime tales to the sweeping YA novels of my teens, I have long been drawn to the thrill of stepping into another world. Echoes of a Forgotten Kingdom grew from that love of narrative and the desire to let music tell a story of its own.\u003cbr\u003eThe piece follows a revolution in a long-forgotten kingdom. “Crownlight” opens with joy and harmony, portraying a realm at peace. In “A Shattered Crown,” an unnamed darkness fractures that calm, its cause left intentionally ambiguous for the listener to imagine. Conflict erupts in “Steel and Bone,” a movement of sharp dissonances, fragmented motives, and flashes of melody, as scenes from an epic cinematic battle. “Where Crimson Lingers” turns toward grief, as both sides confront and mourn the bloodshed. The finale, “Unity: A Crown Restored,” transforms themes of conflict into celebration as the kingdom embraces its history and moves forward renewed.\u003cbr\u003eDedicated to my parents, who opened the door to stories; my sisters, who made them come alive; and my wife, as we make our own story. \u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Alias Press","offers":[{"title":"Set","offer_id":45731724722352,"sku":"494-03372","price":48.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set (download)","offer_id":45731724755120,"sku":"494-03372D-PDF","price":48.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/1767\/5696\/files\/494-03372.jpg?v=1792895819","url":"https:\/\/aliaspress.com\/products\/purcell-echoes-of-a-forgotten-kingdom","provider":"Alias Press","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
