My Composer Pick for Eternal Sonata sequel (if it were to have one)
I know this is supposed to be a "sequel" to ES, but I figured, if the story of ES was based off Chopin's life, why not base the next one on another composer's life directly, and make it so that it has nothing to do with the original ES? Kind of like an indirect sequel.
And this time, I'm not making it into a "death bed" thing. What if (just if) one of the famous composers from the past was actually inspired to do music BECAUSE he entered the dream-like world?
The composer I chose is Franz Clement, a famous Australian violinist known to be able to play complex pieces just by his memory. Despite that, his playing style is light and elegant, not forceful and quite pleasing to the ears. He is also acquainted with Beethoven.
Franz finds himself in a dream, a dream of music and melodies. In this world, songs are actually a form of magic. And in contrast to the previous ES, no, having magic doesn't mean you're ill. In this dream, where he is but a young child, he meets a young man (older than him, of course XD) Parland, a knight in the Kingdom of Pesante (basically the capital of this world, or the most influential land), devoted to his duty and protecting the royal family and the Holy Diva, Ottava.
In this world, there's a specific religion wherein they believe in a God. In this religion, they believe that their God will "once more arise when two smiles don the night sky." Since I made it so that the world has two moons, this means that their God will awaken when the two moons don the sky reflected in a crescent shape. And such phenomenon only happens once in a century. The Holy Diva is said to be the one to sing the song of reawakening and perform the ritual to awaken their God. Ottava however, is not quite devoted to her duty. She was taken when she was still very young and shut in the castle, just because she holds the powers to sing the song of reawakening.
Parland and Ottava meet when Ottava tries to sneak out of the castle one day. Because of her constant whining, Parland had no choice but to escort her around the capital. Through this time, Parland wonders, is it really worth sacrificing her whole life just to be the Holy Diva?
But what if, in the end, the God their reviving goes against them...?
As Franz escorts the party through their journeys, he says to himself "I shall never forget this wonderful melody of two lovers bound by an inescapable destiny..." Which kind of makes it why he remembers melodies so well, he's able to play them by himself after a short briefing.
