Great soundtrack! Did you use a hurdy gurdy vst? tried to incorporate one into my submission a few times but the quality wasn't great so I ditched it. Any recommendations welcome. The fairy theme is quite funny haha, very referential for sure. I think if the instrumentation wasn't so similar the likeness could have been more subtle.

Description
A medieval fantasy/adventure videogame OST. Each track has its place in the story and represents the emotion and feel of the characters or setting, all tied together with the Intro's letimotif. The songs were all composed in Ableton Live using mostly Orchestral Tools sample libraries.
1. Intro/Lore - The beginning cutscene for an epic tale. Prepare to embark on a fantastic journey and dive into the story of a world long forgotten.
2. Market - A bustling marketplace where children play, people sell, and musicians perform. I wanted to create a lively and catchy sound that would make a medieval person dance.
3. Fairy/Goddess - You've entered an ethereal realm and encountered the story's enchanted deity. She offers you wisdom and guidance, bestowing a magical power that only you can wield.
4. Hero/Princess - The love between the hero and the princess captured in sound. The Princess' beauty is radiant and there is no length our hero won't go to save his beloved. This romantic scene captures the moment she is rescued and the two lovers are reunited.
Message from the artist
I loved taking part in this challenge and wish I had more time to dedicate to it, but I hope you'll enjoy what I managed to write over the last few days!
Theme

How does it fit the theme?
The stringed instrument and medieval fantasy style art was the perfect catalyst for an adventure OST.
