That song is awesome! =0

@TheWorshipOnes @GirlGamer1001 Thank you!!!!
@Andasax same, but I could see a few other flights. Idk.
@PearlConor I'm gonna say yes to that last bit. They probably find it funny xD

@Ern
Oh holy shoot thank you! I know that was directed at Kit, but that helps me figure out what in the heckky I did to give it a specific sound! xD
Right now that's easier for me to do since I don't have a lot of musical experience, but at least I know it! And also thank you so much! You seem to know more about music and music styles, so it means a lot to hear that! (And also just in general all this is killing me with positivity)

@Yuubi FGhbGFDH <3
thank you!!

[/quote] Look at you, you excited nerd ovo Look at all this stuff I'm learning for it @KronosDViolinist Nothing like a commission to get experience We can talk it out in PMs, I think But not right now right now is bedtime for me

@KitalphaHart True, I just think in this case I'd ask for payment after I finish the song in case I end up not being able to do it.
Either way, sleep well!

@LeafeonWarrior Leaf I hecking love you and you're amazing

That is very beautiful <3

I've been wanting a theme for my clan,but I haven't read music in years..
