It's my favorite part. When I got to this dungeon I still wasn't sure if it was the final real dungeon because the game kept going and going but when I heard that part of the music I just knew. It just felt so final to me and I don't count the area before Origin of Life.
@Amitai Naveh true but that felt more like an epilogue dungeon because it was just a simple path. If anything the whole part was just the final part of the final dungeon since you couldn't leave and do anything after beating Theos.
The only thing wrong with this game's soundtrack is that it is LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE to find the most brilliant piece amidst every brilliant piece... which is to say, almost every one of them. This soundtrack as a whole is just pure, unadulterated genius, and this track in particular is so beautiful that it defies the language that could otherwise explain it. Aggressive but melancholy, regretful but with that drive to push onward, this track is one of but a handful of paradoxical masterpieces in the OST. Almost every other piece is a masterpiece in its own right, but this one is special in its ability to make you feel contradictory emotions not only from second to second _but within the same second._ Not even Vanishing Trail, another paradoxical masterpiece in this OST, is able to produce such a rapid change of emotions. Especially when those church bells hit and ring in (literally) another revision of one of the two main themes, both of which get their proper due here, this track is what it means to be epic. Other musicians, take note... _this_ is how you compose video game music.
The synth line starting at 0:40 soudns so retro, like the old Ys games on late 80s/early 90s hardware. Love that Ys always bring a retro flavour. The inclusion of Dana's motif is also very nice.

Love how they incorporated the main theme into this.
They did it lowkey too
