  • This is beautiful. I bought your album and it is what I run to. Sentinel hill is last and it always gives me the drive to run faster and finish my run and gives me hope that I won't give up. Thank you and ember for making this video.

  • I dont get the ending

  • Before I read the words, I thought Ember was singing, "but a heart the is pure won't bring my Westfall child home from war..either way,..war takes something away from your soul, and any warrior will tell you that they are fighting to keep that pain from happening to someone else.

  • I have sent this to all my military friends..it says what we all believe and feel..thank you!

  • This is so sad... =/

  • This is OUR song and should be a song sent to as military as can be! I am the daughter, wife and mother of warriors!

  • This is amazing! Pls Greyfoo, may you send me sheets for this? I really wanna learn to play it.

  • @amrithiel I'll update the info block and to include some music data, I'm thrilled you'd want to play it.

  • @TheGreyfoo Thanks very much for updating :) Now i need just convert guitar data into piano data and done :D

  • @TheGreyfoo I do not understand what happened at the end did she die kill herself or what?!?!?!

  • I still like Scarlet Toy best of all your work Grey, but this is wonderful. As soon as I noticed that Scarlet Toy was on iTunes, all your music got downloaded and I found this gem. Keep it up!

  • So beautiful <3

  • wow, great song.

  • Whoa, this song is SO SAD. I was flitting around songs from you and Ember finding good ones to listen to while playing WoW... This one had me near tears... If it was any longer I'd have to cut it short. But it's so beautiful, I've listened to it a few times now and every time I just like it more. Awesome work, keep it up!

  • Everytime I've listened to this song, I assume it's a mother who lost her first born to the war and he's dead. But for the first time today, I thought, wait... she doesn't know for certain, there's still hope he may return.

    Then I saw your comment in regard to "the real ending is what you hope for..."

    Beautiful.

  • This is beautiful...

  • This song is so sad

  • yours and embers best song i love it

  • ZOMG!!!! I wanted to download your songs for months now and bought the album without hesitation =P Your music is amazing and keep writing =D

  • @Strad1921 Thanks for the kind words Strad!

  • This song touches me, by far one of the best I've ever heard. Since I first listened to it I think I've revisited to listen again at least 3 times a day lol. It's very calming in stressful situations as well. :)

  • I typed in "Wow silvermoon to sentinel hill" and this comes up ? how the fuck do i get to sentinel hill as a blood elf ? someone reply.

  • @OzSlay haven't played in a while but I think the quickest way would probably be to have someone port you to Undercity then run it I think there is like 7 zones between undercity and Westfall. But I could be wrong been like a year lol.

  • I bought your album and its amazing, i just wish it included this video to make it all that more powerful. Ember did an awesome job. There's one thing that always bothers me though, did his mother die while waiting ( maybe depression?) or was she looking at her husband grave or something? I'd love to know. Keep up the good work Foo ^.^b

  • @Renia118 Thank you Renia. When I wrote this song it had an unresolved ending, truly there is no greater torment than losing a child, and yet how many children have wars taken from us? As the sun sets on time itself, these parents are waiting forever for their children to come home. But when I made the movie, it had other ideas, it demanded I add another scene. It asked me to hope, and so I did. The real ending is what you hope for, too.

  • I actually just bawled.

    Lmao

  • Why can't we download this song? D:! Its so pretty!

  • @fairylover1991 Well, the good news for you is that in just a few days from now, you'll be able to!

  • I put all 10 of your videos on loop and just play them all day. Everyday. Ever since I found your Archeology song. Thanks for providing such high quality songs all in a row.

  • @MoonDust3 Thank you MoonDust3!

  • @TheGreyfoo I wonder if he came back when they finished building sentinel hill? :)

  • I also made my account just so I could post and 'Like' this video. I enjoy Ember's work immensely, but especially this one. A medium that is normally used for insider jokes has this time produced an emotional glimpse of real life.

  • That gave me goosebumps...i love embers voice

  • Best.Machinima.Ever.

  • I've commented on here once before but I have to say it again, I'm in love with this. This is one of my favourite songs ever. You two should actually release an album. This song is easily relatable to anyone, even non wow players or non gamers. <3

  • This is hauntingly beautiful. What a voice.

  • im blown away : O

  • I don't think I've stopped listening to this for about 4 days... it's so hauntingly beautiful... Lol, I made an account just so i could subscribe and like this vid. It's that good. Can't wait for another video by you, though you just released your last one :P

  • Epic!

  • let me know when you'll selling your works. I'll buy them! *cheer*

  • I keep coming back to this video... You and Ember did such an amazing job. ;__;

  • This song/lyrics/vocals/machinima gave me goosebumps.

  • Greyfoo, this is my absolute favorite of your songs (though I love them all). I am literally in tears every time I watch it. Thank you, this is beautiful.

  • This song is probably one of the most beautiful ever created by anyone. Though I don't agree it should be longer, I dunno if i could take it if it was longer, would probably end up crying.

  • Totally agree with giantsnowpanda (not on the crying part:P )

    Ember's voice feels like it can touch the heart :]

  • This song makes me cry every time I hear it. Ember's voice is so haunting and beautiful.

  • The images, and the song, are stuck in my head. Haunting, beautiful, sad, and inspiring. Thank you both for making it.

  • This song is just amazing.... it should have more publicity.

  • This song is still the most amazing thing ever.

  • Beautiful and moving.

  • I think this is my favorite machina I've yet seen. Just a beautiful work. I especially love the second chorus, when the various characters walk through against backgrounds of other theatres of war, and I'm reminded of how beautiful the scenery is in wow, and how someone living there might see those areas.

    And then of course the guard comes home, and I'm fighting back tears again. Well done.

  • a thumbs up 1. because as horde even i love that place and 2 because its recorded on my server of Dommhammer and finally because the vocals are beautiful

  • That song and the shots done for it are both pure works of art, and when I read your description about what helped inspire it, I was deeply moved (I have degenerative disk disorder, so I understand how depressing back issues can be.) Thank you for your video, and your determination to do something both meaningful and beautiful, no matter what challenges you face. You're an inspiration.

  • So very haunting. The video is a perfect fit and between that and Emberisolte's breathtaking vocals... I choked up. Amazing work.

  • I've watched your videos before but this one omg your voice is kick ass

  • This is undoubtably the best machinima ever made!

  • So beautiful... Must.. Not.. Cry... T~T

  • This song is Truly Beautiful....me and girlfriend were watching this and we both teared up you are one of the amazing artists that need to be discovered with producing and such like that....and trust me if this song isn't voted the best song/machinima of the year then i will sue the people who decide what is the song of the year NO LIE!

  • it's beautiful !

  • You sing so beautifully :D, awesome video!

  • Still in love with this.

  • hmmm is that the imperial armor set? if so, i'm gettin my DK to wear it and wander the streets of SW XD

  • You make truly compelling videos. A lot of WoW machinima is disposable...fun for a few minutes, but quickly fade from memory. Your work is enduring, truly art. Thanks for the effort.

  • Just...wonderful. I'm surprised you didn't place! I luff it!

    ~Pegagirl of Ysondre

  • You're right GreyFoo, this is a winner! Another hit for you and Ember! =)

  • Glad to see this pop up on WoW Insider, it gave me an excuse to come and listen to it again:)

  • Unbelievably epic, amazing... breathtaking. Just wow!

  • Epic song, Epic movie, Epic Emberlsolte! I am in love!

  • Baww, just wayy too beautiful. *Tears* Love it. <3

  • You know Grey, you're serious music is just soooo much better than your goofy ones. They almost make me tear up. Ember, you did a great job.

  • Beautiful! Really love it!

  • Grey, you and Ember did such an amazing job with this video. This is just...damn, man. Just damn.

  • An extremely beautiful song, it's preposterous how little views it has. Ember your voice is beautiful, pleasae allow us the priveledge of hearing more of it. <3

  • Why is this not on wow insider yet??? I've sent it in.

  • @Malthusian WoW-based machinima has expanded to a huge degree over the last couple of years. With more than one movie being released every day, getting featured on some website is a welcome bonus, but not something to expect.

    Having said that, I'm saddened that I haven't been able to generate Emberisolte the level of exposure she deserves for her work here.

    Oh well, back to the drawing board - so much to do!

  • @TheGreyfoo Whats cool, in my opinion, is that when you look at the song in a current situation. It was a happy ending, sence cataclysm, he can come back and defend sentinel hill. So when i thought of that, that kinda made me happy.

  • @Malthusian Looks like you got your wish. :)

  • @Malthusian there you have it on wow insider^^

  • I really enjoyed the Westfall child riding back at the very end. Glad to see he didn't end up as scourge fodder in Icecrown. The music is amazing. Sad, mournful and yet victorious.

  • i love it :D

  • This video is amazing, you have a beautiful voice Ember and the song and video are , as always, a joy to watch.

  • It's songs like this that really breathe life into WoW... amazing work! Any chance we'll get an mp3 of this? :)

  • @jadestinger Hi Jade - yes, next project is the Website, and to optimize all my song volume levels to make MP3s.

  • sent shivers down my spine..<3

  • Ember and Grey, you guys rock! Awesome job!

  • Ember you rock! Awesome job to the both of you!

  • Wonderful as always. I hope you feel better soon.

  • Wow, that was breathtaking. I have always enjoyed all of your videos, and this one is no exception. Ember, you have such a pure and stunning voice. I got goosebumps just listening to it!

    TheGreyfoo, you really are talented. You have beautiful, creative, and moving ideas that draw us in to the story you've crafted. I cannot believe that this didn't place in the movie/song contest. How on earth could it not? I'm very confused by those judging the videos. Keep up the amazing work!!

  • Simply amazing, this song gave me goose bumps

  • Absolutely gorgeous - honestly.

  • Had this song stuck in my head all day today, so beautiful.

  • This makes me want to level up a new toon just to go through Westfall quests again :P

  • Beautiful guys. Great to see two great machinimators like you collaborating, it definetly deserves more than "thumb up".

    /clap

  • Amazing Grey... cant write words to do it justice

  • :) Amazing. As always. Keep it up man.

  • Beautiful...thank you for the chills. :)

  • OmG LOVE THIS !

  • beautiful X_X

  • I think it's interesting to watch a new genre form and pioneers like Greyfoo and Ember (among others) forge the path. I hope as time goes by you guys only become more successful.

  • He came home :')

  • Isolte, you should sing more this kind of songs. :)

    Your voice fits here better than in... for example "Ninja Raiders".

  • Thanks for posting so we finally get to see it... Very nicely done..

    IMHO better than some of the winners, I was not impressed with all their choices,

  • Such beautiful lyrics could only be done justice by the voice of Ember - perfect match :)

  • Beautiful video and Amazing vocals, keep up the good work both of you <3

  • Grey you never fail to produce anything short of amazing, especially when you partner with EmberIsolte! Another masterpiece from you two. The judges at Blizzcon really have no clue what they are doing, in any of the contests. You always win in my book. -Meltheous

  • @unstablereality I'm sorry is there like a contests for machinimas like this at blizzcon? And reading from you comment they arent impressed by him?:O how couldnt they?!

  • @2xXxPunisherxXx2 terrible troll. nuff said.

  • that's a wonderful video

  • @2xXxPunisherxXx2 you have no idea what your talking about, just because you probably have no talent doesn't mean you should dis people that do. If you don't like it, then don't watch it, and don't spend the time to bring others down.

    Nuff Said!

  • @2xXxPunisherxXx2 Go troll in trade chat.

  • this is amazing. so much feeling!

  • Lovlkey!

  • Ouhh so nice EmberIsolte?

    You have such an nice voice I love it !

  • Wow, that was just beautiful.

  • very VERY good i didnt hear much of the lyrics but its a beautiful song

  • @2xXxPunisherxXx2 You must not be defining "singer" in a musical term. Otherwise, you have NO clue where your own fingertips are even falling on the keyboard.

  • That gave me chills guys - very well done.

  • wow, just wow. that was amazing the vocals were beautiful and the machinima was great!

  • DH in the house. Another nice production Grey (and Ember)

  • And now we see what happens when two great talents come together. Greyfoo, I have always loved your original songs and your videos and this one is no exception.  Very well done. Ember, your voice (as always) was divine. Thank you both very much.

  • That made me want to cry. Maybe because someone left and I'm still waiting for the return.

  • Wow. Grey, Ember, this is simply amazing. Really haunting. Awesome job, as always!!

  • Beautifull work, both of you! (Huge fan here!)

    -Bullworth

  • Once again Im blown away by Greyfoo's originality and the amazing sound of Embers voice. You two make an awesome team and I can't wait to see what you come up with next. Kudos to both of you. But did ya have to make me cry? =P Spectacular work guys!

  • excellent once again !! love it

    btw, I have lots of memories at Sentinel Hill, shout outs to my homies Dwarfy D, Big Ray, and Lil Gryph.

  • Great job with this beautiful song Grey and Ember.

    I hope we will see some more songs from you 2 together.

    I loved every moment of it gj and the machinima was also great.

    Anyway gj and gl with future plans :P.

  • Nice. Very good lyrics. Even standing alone they are very poetic. Should submit them somewhere as a poem.

  • wow is awesome, and so is this song, future artist?

  • WoW!

  • Wow, you can really hear how wide of a range ember has, this is absolutely beautiful. You two did an amazing job with this <3

  • Very well done :)

  • Another winner Grey, thanks.

  • It was an honor and a great privilege to work with you on this piece, Grey. The lyrics, the melody, and later the machinima all had me crying at various points before we could share this publicly and now.. I'm even more emo! *tears welling up* thank you for creating such a beautiful song. :')
