Erana's Sorrow (Quest for Glory I: So You Want to Be a Hero), fan vocal cover

An arrangement of Erana's Peace by Mark Seibert. I own nothing besides the lyrics. All in all I'm pretty pleased with how this one turned out. The instrument I used here was a renaissance flute made from bamboo. There was always something a little sad about this piece for me, even when I heard it as a child. Then, of course, I found out about what actually happened to Erana in Quest for Glory IV, and this seemed like the logical place to draw lyrics from.

Lyrics:
When I first knew that I loved you
There was no sound to speak
No light to seek
All my hope destroyed
When I first knew that I loved you
There were no words to tell
Locked in a spell
Trapped inside the void

Chorus:
You'll never know how I long for your touch
Never know how I love you so much

When I first knew that I loved you
You could not see my dreams
Nor hear my screams
Stifled by the black
When I first knew that I loved you
You'd only heard my name
When you first came
You cannot love me back

(Chorus)

What a wonderfully picturesque rendition of an already amazing tune. You matched the lyrics, mood, and music so well in the way you arranged it. Lovely work!

[PhoenyxRider]

@GreenMaster8 I can't thank you enough! *permagrin* Thank you so, so many times!

[benbo777]

Wow, amazing, just fantastic. Favourited, downloaded, loved.

[PhoenyxRider]

@benbo777 Thank you so much!  It means a lot!

[seriouslyWeird]

from which sequel s this screenshot? i don't remember it being in first quest for glory (but then again, it was a long time since i played it)

[PhoenyxRider]

@seriouslyWeird It's from QfG4: Shadows of Darkness.

Greatest adventure game series ever. Quest for Glory V fell flat, (they departed WAY too far from the gameplay of the first four) but the rest? They just don't make games like these anymore. The ending of QfG4 is just a punch to the gut like you wouldn't expect from a game. Katrina's story alone is devastatingly beautiful, but then you add Erana as well. They REALLY need to do a QfG movie. Start with the first game, then work through the other five.

This is such an amazing piece of music, even independent of the fond reminiscence of the games. It reminds me a lot of Amy Lee's (from Evanescence) early work. The bamboo flute and vocal effects really make it an ethereal piece, totally reflective of Erana and her story. Thank you for such a great tribute to a childhood memory :)

[Fyrirrek]

Beautiful work, gave me goosebumps! Currently trying to learn this on guitar and happy to find this:)

[Francois424]

WoW. That would be perfect for a QFG4 movie's credit rolling at the end... Dowloaded; Thank you for making it available.

[cynbot]

This gave me goosebumps :D absolutely wonderful job!

[AkiraTakahara]

Beautiful! This is truly a lovely rendition that does this series justice, and I thank you for the upload (saved the mp3!).

[gigertron]

Thank you so much for making this, all of you.
