Music Boxes - Unchained Melodies

Postby Dark Grimoire NPC » Mon Jan 17, 2022 9:29 pm

Find Hans the Music Man during the festival if you would like to have your music box upgraded so that you can hear the beautiful melodies that are trapped inside.
If you have not found one in a Winter's Warming gift, you can purchase one from Hans.


OOC -
Send a PM to this forum account with a description of the melody you have in mind or what inspires the music you think would be locked in your music box. Include a link to your music box and Hans will work his magic.

One per account please. However you will be able to give these away when they are done.
Post any questions you have below.

For clarification - please describe your music as you would be hearing it.
You will not get 'plays xx song'
Because they dont exist in Valorn.
What sort of tune or melody is it?
What feelings does it evoke?
Does it sound *like* something or remind you of something?
Foot tapper or tear jerker?

That sort of thing. If you just send in a youtube link, I will have to figure out how to describe it and 1. that is more work than I want to do for every single person and 2. I will probably not hear it the same way as you as it won't have the same meaning to me (if any at all).

If anyone got a tune and wants to make a change because it is not suitable, reply to my PM with more of a description.

I am trying to make these reflect the music you hear in your heart - Not a link to youtube.
Thanks!

All submitted melodies have been unchained.
If there are issues please send me a message. Also I had to send some clarifying questions to some, so please check your messages and respond as soon as possible so that we can resolve the issues and get your music unlocked.

Seeing everyone's musical interpretations has been grand!
Please keep in mind when submitting it is a music box and not an orchestra - the 15 teeth on the comb can do magical things, but not actual magic. Thanks.

Have just thought: mean one per forum account or DG account?

If latter, please be patient; may not be able until Monday.

The event ends with the festival. I am afraid that is the way of things.
