 "Adventurer in Merregnon"

  Many adventurers dream of undiscovered worlds, uncharted lands,
 mysterious cities. They dream they encounter strange creatures, that they
 find artefacts or hidden treasures..
  One day, the young man named Gayon decided to leave his hometown, to
 free himself. Never in his life he has done something very exciting.
 But he'll never forget this day, he ran in the plains, as fast as he
 could. He didn't know where he wanted to go but unconsciously he was
 heading for the forest. He felt free. He was happy. But he was stupid.
 He realized that when I saw he was lost in a maze of trees. He couldn't
 remind from where he came. Suddenly he was desesperated. Why he left his
 home? What happened to him? While thinking to this he was walking and
 watching the nature. And he was astonished to the see the beauty of the
 trees, their majestic size, standing like the guardians of an ancient
 civilization that ruled the world before the men. Then his fear
 disappeared, he was protected by the trees and they would lead his walk
 towards hidden cities in the heart of the forest. Now he was excited to
 discover things that were known by few people, maybe even by no one else.
 And he ran again, he ran in the forest, looking for any treasure...

  I had no precise idea for this song (as usual) so it was hard to start
 and find something interesting. As I had few time to track , I just
 developed the few ideas I had. Here is the result.
  Obviously it is not really a medieval style, it's more fantasy but a
 weird fantasy style I suppose. In fact I'm not certain of the genre of
 this music... I just hope it worth something.
  Actually I don't really consider this song is a true finished one,
 because I was time-limited and I may have not fixed all the effects.

  Yea I used the Shaku sample but not too much!
 I think this is again a squarish chords song as I used to do.
 Even if I didn't searched complexes melodies I tried to have a
 well-sounding song. And I've put a lot of filters commands...

  I've mixed down to 8 bits most of the samples because I cannot hear any
 differences with 16 bits samples especially with 32+ channels mixed...
