Magic of the Old Grey Wizard
from Returns to Roost by Hole Dweller
lyrics
Running to his side, Mr. Loamsdown knelt to face the old man. He could see the exhaustion in his wise and sunken eyes.
“What in the blazes was that? Explain yourself wizard!” Loamsdown at this point somewhat annoyed at the altercation that had startled his ponies.
“What you saw was not pertaining to your business I am afraid” the wizard grumbled. “Remember, as you said, No adventures today”.
Loamsdown looked perplexed as the man rose and hobbled away down the path.
It was the last of any type of magic the lonely innkeeper witnessed in the Shire. Just as soon as the old gray wizard disappeared over the horizon, a mail carrier approached from the edge of the path.

I met Fogweaver through Vedurnan and, later, Magelight. This more energetic take on their music is wonderful and exciting, a compelling twist bearing their unique signature.

I love this album and could return to it daily. Evoking Earthsea so effortlessly is a gift.

If nostalgia for an age where creatures of myth walked together with the children of men had a soundtrack, this album would be it. Also, a touching reminder that we can forego wealth and power for wilderness and freedom, if we so choose.

One of my favorite dungeon synth albums, and I had only heard it a few days ago for the first time. Perfect for drifting off to sleep, but also for driving under the canopy of trees. It is very soft, and pleasant, yet vast at times. The ambient forest sounds are extremely soothing. A wonderful work of art that feels as refreshing as diving into the deeps of a natural, cold spring in the eves of summer.
