"The clouds of lightning around you crowd in close. The very air is so charged with energy that you can feel the waves of heat. Then, a stark flash of light illuminates the darkness, and you can see the manor floating around you. Pivoting in the void, it’s impossible to make out the shapes of its twisted corridors, the outline of its broken spires, its windows which no longer contain glass."

The day has finally come. After much trial and error, I have finally released the extended, patreon-exclusive version of the Foundry VTT module.
This extended module contains everything from the free module + alternate versions, bonus tracks, and seamlessly looping versions of everything.
Currently the module is up to date up to track 112. I'll be periodically updating it with the latest tracks around once a month...

Hey folks,
It shouldn't be long now at all until I have the Patreon-exclusive Foundry module in your hands, featuring all the looping versions of the tracks, plus alternate tracks and bonus tracks. I have everything set up in terms of the playlists and file structure, so now I'm just integrating the new module into Foundry VTT's patreon integration system.
To prepare for the release, I've added a new Tier at £4.50 / $5.50 per track, the Bard + Extended Foundry Module

Hey folks,
Whilst preparing the upcoming patreon-exclusive version of my Foundry module, I realised that the main module had an issue where some tracks were not appearing in the main “All Tracks” playlist and the “All Atmosphere / Suspense / Combat / Theme” playlists.
I've pushed an update that fixes this. (Note: this update doesn't add any new tracks, just fixes the playlists)

Hey folks,

You can find all of these in the regular download archive within the 'Bonus Tracks' fo...

The road is edged by the blackened trees, the ground cracked and dry, the sky dark with smoke and ash. The whole world was bathed in a flickering red light. You can feel the screams as much as hear them, a terrible, soul-destroying sound that enters your head like nails on a chalkboard. The sound of a tortured world."

"The Temple is old, older than memory. It has stood for countless centuries, a silent sentinel among the trees of the forest. Grey stone intricately carved and set with shining marble, it is a thing of elegance, smooth and sleek. Deep, sweeping stairs make a broad, inviting path to the great double doors. The doors themselves are oak, polished by age and weather, covered with intricate bas reliefs of wreaths and trees and the faces of ancestors long gone."

The slightest lurch or judder, and the city would fall. And so it was that every last one of the citizens pulled together, and fell together, and rose together. They worked through the night and through the days, fixing what was broken, tuning what was ragged, replacing what was worn."
