It would be pretty cool if you actually only controlled kris' soul and was forced to attack, but since you can move around you can try your best to not let your attacks hit your party members
Yeah, but in snowgrave after Kris is down during the Berdly fight Noelle says "I can still heart their voice" when asked to stop, so it is clear that at least in battle we also are in command.
@@NoName-oz3gj The player's soul is actually seen during the fight. I've seen people speculating that Ralsei sent our soul to Susie. I myself am on the fence when it comes to most Ralsei theories. But it seems that ralsei most likely sent our soul to Susie (possibly to have that discussion with Kris).
“The Legend is kinda the game’s main theme.” Well, yes, but technically, no? Yes, as in “yeah, it’s one of the main themes of the game”, and no, as in “there is another”. The Don’t Forget leitmotif, present in Light World tracks, the credits of the chapters, the Roaring explanation and… The World Revolving, for some reason. It’s also interesting to note that there has yet to be a song in the game that utilises both leitmotifs. They’ve been kept separate so far. Contrast Don’t Forget’s use with The Legend, used entirely in the Dark World in situations relating to the Prophecy and the Knight, and in Chaos King. The “Chaos King-The World Revolving” comparison gets a little more interesting when you realise that the The Legend is used for the final boss of the chapter (about the Knight and all that) while Don’t Forget is used for the secret boss of the chapter (about freedom, which is connected to Kris).

There isn't alot of fan made themes for this character so it's always nice to see stuff like this. Hearing Nightmare Knight in this makes me wonder if Toby will add it in The Knight's theme when we eventually fight them.
I like to think my prediction is that the KNIGHT is actually the scrapped vessel from the beginning of the game. It was supposed to be the star of the story, but got replaced with Kris instead. It’s now enraged and wants revenge.
A fun play on the phrase "living in your brother's shadow", huh? What I like about this song is, while it's definitely full of energy, it's absolutely brimming with desperation. This is clearly meant to be a scary encounter. Like the Knight took the fight to you and you were not prepared to face it. In that way, it reminds me of Your Best Nightmare a little, which I suppose is apt given the choice of who you decided to be The Knight.
WAIT A [$!$!]ING SECOND IF OMEGA FLOWEY/ASRIEL IS THE FINAL BOSS OF UNDERTALE THAT THAT COULD MEAN FLOWEY TRANSFERED TO DELTARUNE UNIVERSE! Just a thought though
@@Alison-y5w Asriel is already confirmed to be in Deltarune due to the MANY dialogues namedropping him, but since Flowey is Asriel, not separate people, Flowey won’t have been ‘transferred’ to Deltarune. And, Deltarune may well be an alternate timeline, which would mean (unless someone murders Azzy and gets some weird ideas with DETERMINATION) that Flowey doesn’t exist in Deltarune. Probably.
The little tracey effects on The Knight's sprite makes me yearn to see it floating around like Asriel's initial phase in Undertale, minus the rainbow background bit. The simple blue platform and black void make The Knight 10x more imposing.
Saying that in all caps makes it really threatening, but no since his whole face would be covered notice the long goat horns on his head, plus nicecream guy is blue, plus he’s holding Kris in captivity so it’s Asriel, himself being evil again, but corrupted with darkness, but he can be made good, and a powerful ally, but it won’t come easy.
This is so lovely, I really like Catti's design being an occult member since she mentions it in chapter 2 :) very fitting and the music is great!! I think the leitmotifs are Nightmare Night, Megalo Strikeback, The legend, Gaster's theme, world revolving/secret boss theme, Don't forget, His theme, and I think there's a recurring theme inspired by the opening to Your best nightmare as well?

@@latetwenies Yeah, I thought they sounded like they came from a Kirby game. The drum kit sounds like the exact same from the Super Star Ultra soundbank. I'll have a play around with the Kirby's Dreamland 3 instruments and see if I can recognise any. Thanks for the input.
My favorite part is definitely 0:25 to 0:50. The dreamlike, almost hazy-ish instruments leading up to a guitar solo is perfect. Seriously, I hope we get a boss in Deltarune that uses those „Dreamlike“ instruments, it’s really unique and makes the song stand out from other USTs.
love the inclusion of nightmare knight as i thought that song already fit in the theme of this, also i would change the style of the knight as it is a lightner
Masterfully done with the instrumental separation. Most retro sounding music I hear now a days is too flat so it's hard to make out the individual components.
One of my favorite ideas that I’ve thought of is the red soul kris discards getting ripped out of him for good and placed inside someone else, and us having to save him. Maybe that’s the implication here with cathy. I’ve always wondered if a person can retain their ability to speak normally when having the soul in them, like imagine talking to Susie as the soul and explaining that you’ve just been trying your best to do good.
I had a similar idea Once the knight has taken down the trio, everything freezes like during the yellow soul tutorial and the player is prompted to mash the arrow keys. The soul then bursts out of Kris and gathers up energy to become the vessel.
One thing that intrigues me is the structure of the song, it vaguely in pattern resembles hopes and dreams, with the main melody being played with the chip instrument and then a guitar afterwards.
Concepts: The Knight and Kris take turns attacking. You can't dodge attacks dealt by Kris. If you try to attack the knight, he gets out of the way and it hits Kris. You still use Kris' SOUL to dodge attacks. ACTs done to The Knight don't do much outside of their first usage, which amplifies the characters' MAGIC abilities, similarly to the King fight. Similarly to the Spamton NEO fight, you can snap Kris' wires, and if all of them are snapped, they regain full control over themselves (or rather, you regain control of Kris) and they fight alongside the rest of the gang. Killing Kris results in a GAME OVER, but the game continues to play out afterwards, essentially locking you into the fight until you eventually die (the fight will never end once Kris dies, and you can't dodge attacks without their SOUL).
@David Petras I didn’t steal anyone’s comment. The chances of me typing out the same comment as somebody else word for word without knowing it is very, very, very slim.
GAME OVER A: *Dude what the fuck, we were just doing some friendly sparring, you killed Kris! S: *I don't know what happened, I didn't mean for that attack to be THAT strong! R: *Maybe we can heal them? C: *I'm.. gonna go find some help.
This is probably my favorite Deltarune song and its not even an official song. I think part of it is the tension of the song matches the scenerio depicted in the picture perfectly. It just perfectly establishes the seriousness of the situation where Kris's friends are trying desperately to free them from the knight.
Hell yeah seeing Asriel, as the knight gives me chills, since it’s what i really want to happen mainly so he can become a holy paldian party member since he can’t be the main villain again, and he deserves the screen time the man needs it, also he’s looking like Kris’s, stand power by the way he’s floating lol we just need Kris, pointing with dark aura around him, but i can see Noelle, actually helping him rediscover himself, and make him start to crack the darkness, then Kris, breaks free and hugs him, causing him to break down into tears, and for his outfit to turn white, and green, or blue for happiness since, or purple because that’s associated with the dreemurr’s, then it says Asriel The Soaring Holy Paladin, joins the party, after he collects himself, then either the final dark world, or a couple depending on when we face him down i can honestly see it just depending when we cross paths, who knows, but this is hyping me up, also this is a banger great work.
I don't really think Asriel is the Knight unless there is some plot twist or something that shows that Asriel never went to college. He would have to sneak around town, break into buildings (the School and the Library), and create Dark Fountains without anybody noticing him which is pretty much impossible since everyone knows who he is. But I do think the Knight will be a parallel to Flowey/Asriel though since he was the main antagonist of Undertale.
Asriel cant be Knight,at though,simply because is nearly impossible to sneak around town without getting noticed. Kris would be more fitting to that role... *He has the determination *He has the power *And he looks like a Knight in dark world But we cant forget that maybe these more than one human in Hometown,so
@@tracey8121 Well you don’t know that, plus this isn’t official so I’m saying it’s cool that he is in this, and I’m thinking he does stuff from collage since he’s probably really smart, and makes time to be the knight plus who’s to say a dark fountain can’t be made from inside a created dark world, and Asriel, knows hometown so he can decide where it’s placed to enter. No Kris isn’t the knight i hate that theory.
@@tracey8121 Well in Undertale, Flowey is secretly spying on Frisk for the entire game, and nobody seems to notice him, so in Deltarune he could have the same sneaking capability, like opening dark fountains without people noticing.
Really good! I will note that its odd that you put Catti as the main player character, I feel like Susie is the most likely to take over primary in this scenario.
I think it'd probably be Susie, Noelle, and Berdly instead, because Kris, Susie, Ralsei, Noelle, and Berdly seem to be the members of the Fun Gang. Still kind of odd how Ralsei isn't here.
On the topic of Ralsei here... he states in Chapter 2 that during The Roaring, all darkners would eventually turn to stone. It could be implied here that The Roaring is happening and has to be stopped, and the stone thing happened to Ralsei and he isn't there because of that. Just a thought, though.
So the motifs I'm hearing are: Nightmare Knight The Legend Megalo Strike Back(The intro part) Don't Forget Lost Girl ☟︎✋💣 The secret boss motif His Theme/Memory It's an amazing theme... Though I refuse to accept playable Catti not wielding Jockington as a weapon, or Ralsei not being part of this fight for that matter. Also, please stop the Kris abuse, first you literally hang them and then you sic a t-posing salesman on them. They suffer more in this video than in the first two chapters combined :(
These are the Leimotifs I have Noticed for now: Nightmare Knight The World Revolving/ Big Shot (that "Air is cracking with Freedom" Leimotif) The Legend Megalo Strikes Back Girl Next Door/ Lost Girl Gaster Theme Did I forgot something? 'Cause I could add new Leimotifs if that's the case Plus His Theme (Isn't that Notorious, but if You listen closely in 3:20...) I almost forget it. This theme is awesome Thanks
I LOVE how you had parts of Nightmare Knight in the song since I can realistically see Toby taking inspiration from that old song of his and adding it into the game.
I assume this is the Pacifist Route. If it was the Weird / Snowgrave Route, they would have higher HP. Or perhaps, the Knight somewhat weakened the girls' strength with a spell.
I think Susie would be better since we do take her pov in chapter 1 while she was fighting Lancer. And she is one of the main/important characters in the game. Berdly and Noelle are just side characters in my opinion even if they do have some relevance. Also Berdly “dies” and if our choices don't matter then that could mean that he dies later on in the story.
@@cgimichaelmyers2806 notably, Susie seems almost entirely immune to the Soul's influence. If this happened she would probably be mutually cooperating with the player more than anything
@@cgimichaelmyers2806 interestingly, in the character creation sequence in chapter 1, while you do get a response from the voice(most likely gaster) says "an interesting coincidence" upon naming yourself a lightner character, only the names Kris, Susie and Noelle get a special response from the "voice" saying that "you're about to meet someone wonderful", so I think Noelle is gonna be one of the more important characters and will definitely have some sort of relation to this "Angel".
I like the soundfounts or similiarities to kirby's deamland 3, which makes sense because Toby does have a song he made called "Knightmare Night" which uses Kirby's Dreamland 3 soundfonts
There's a theory out there saying that papyrus is the knight, and I believe that theory a little, and I really feel like the would be fitting for the knight papyrus. (Now excuse me while I make some text)
I feel like that theres a few people that COULD be the knight and people that AREN'T the knight, my main suspect of being the knight is Dess mainly because the bunker can be a dark world (of course we dont know how many dark fountains it takes to release the titans) and she's only opening them as a way to get back to the light world probably due Gaster or one of the titans being the mastermind behind the curtains and telling Dess thats how she gets home due to us having lack of Dess Holiday lore. Ralsei being the knight in my honest opinion is dumb like he could of just told Kris and Susie to open the dark fountains rapidly at castle town like why tell them how to seal them
@@marshalllee6376 ok i have something to counter that statement (hopefully): If the bunker is a dark world the reason its not sealed or Ralsei pointed out its existence is probably because he might not be aware of it's existence because he didn't 'exist' yet, remember all darkners are objects before the dark world is open (The unused classroom and computer lab are PRIME examples) perhaps Ralsei existed after Kris lost the toy horns he was given which might of been after the bunker dark world was created and Dess fell in
@@OniGamer00 wouldn’t he be aware of it once he’s created tho. Like once whoever made him explains that the prescense he feels is the grand fountain, and if he feels another one then that’s and bad should close it, wouldn’t he immediately just go “wait, but there’s like one way down south.”
Asriel being the knight would be pretty interesting. Especially considering that the cucumber quest fansong made by Toby himself dubbed “nightmare knight” uses a slightly altered version of “your best nightmare”s lead melody
0:00-0:25 Nightmare knight instrument 0:25-0:50 The legend 0:32-0:37 Don’t forget 0:51-1:03 Nightmare knight with lost girl in the background 1:04-1:05 Gangster’s theme 1:06-1:30 Nightmare Knight 1:19-1:30 The World Revolving 1:31-1:44 Nightmare knight with His theme in the background 1:44-1:47 Gangster’s theme
I would honestly add this to a playlist. I’m begging you, please add this on as many music services as possible. This is amazing and I would love to add it.
What if toby fox saw this and liked it so much that he asked the_updator to join the deltarune team and he's been working on deltarune chapter 3 the whole time
that part at 1:00 just before gaster's theme reminds me a lot of klonoa: door to phantomile, wonder if that's done on purpose since both games seem to be somewhat based on dreams. this sounds really great!
I think this would actually be a really cool concept, because kris is usually the one telling the members what to do, but here they would have to think for themselves!

Undertale fan songs: have "Megalovania" in the songs
Deltarune fan songs: have "The Legend" in the songs
True. But then again, The Legend is kinda the game’s main theme. Megalovania has no excuse though lol.
To be fair, it does make sense for The Knight, the one CAUSING the roaring to occur, to use The Legend in it's theme.
Idk I usually hear "his theme" way more than Megalovania on Undertale fan songs honestly

Well, yes, but technically, no? Yes, as in “yeah, it’s one of the main themes of the game”, and no, as in “there is another”.

@@yams7355 What do you mean? You can see Ralsei's pinkish horns coming through the helmet and his ear.. things?
Masterfully done with the instrumental separation. Most retro sounding music I hear now a days is too flat so it's hard to make out the individual components.
Amazing! You really captured Toby's essence in this!
Ps. No one's talking about it, but at 1:30, you can faintly hear His Theme in the background
Perfect.... It would be such a coincidence if this was actually lore of the next game
One of my favorite ideas that I’ve thought of is the red soul kris discards getting ripped out of him for good and placed inside someone else, and us having to save him. Maybe that’s the implication here with cathy. I’ve always wondered if a person can retain their ability to speak normally when having the soul in them, like imagine talking to Susie as the soul and explaining that you’ve just been trying your best to do good.
I feel like we are going to have a moment like that at some point
I had a similar idea
Once the knight has taken down the trio, everything freezes like during the yellow soul tutorial and the player is prompted to mash the arrow keys. The soul then bursts out of Kris and gathers up energy to become the vessel.
One thing that intrigues me is the structure of the song, it vaguely in pattern resembles hopes and dreams, with the main melody being played with the chip instrument and then a guitar afterwards.
Smells like cinnamon
Amazing mix, mate, this is pu toby fox levels of awesome
Concepts: The Knight and Kris take turns attacking. You can't dodge attacks dealt by Kris. If you try to attack the knight, he gets out of the way and it hits Kris. You still use Kris' SOUL to dodge attacks. ACTs done to The Knight don't do much outside of their first usage, which amplifies the characters' MAGIC abilities, similarly to the King fight. Similarly to the Spamton NEO fight, you can snap Kris' wires, and if all of them are snapped, they regain full control over themselves (or rather, you regain control of Kris) and they fight alongside the rest of the gang. Killing Kris results in a GAME OVER, but the game continues to play out afterwards, essentially locking you into the fight until you eventually die (the fight will never end once Kris dies, and you can't dodge attacks without their SOUL).
@David Petras I didn’t steal anyone’s comment. The chances of me typing out the same comment as somebody else word for word without knowing it is very, very, very slim.
What if this new deltarune chapter 7 xd
GAME OVER
A: *Dude what the fuck, we were just doing some friendly sparring, you killed Kris!
S: *I don't know what happened, I didn't mean for that attack to be THAT strong!
R: *Maybe we can heal them?
C: *I'm.. gonna go find some help.
@@MintyMoron64 That's actually really cool
This is probably my favorite Deltarune song and its not even an official song. I think part of it is the tension of the song matches the scenerio depicted in the picture perfectly. It just perfectly establishes the seriousness of the situation where Kris's friends are trying desperately to free them from the knight.
Hell yeah seeing Asriel, as the knight gives me chills, since it’s what i really want to happen mainly so he can become a holy paldian party member since he can’t be the main villain again, and he deserves the screen time the man needs it, also he’s looking like Kris’s, stand power by the way he’s floating lol we just need Kris, pointing with dark aura around him, but i can see Noelle, actually helping him rediscover himself, and make him start to crack the darkness, then Kris, breaks free and hugs him, causing him to break down into tears, and for his outfit to turn white, and green, or blue for happiness since, or purple because that’s associated with the dreemurr’s, then it says Asriel The Soaring Holy Paladin, joins the party, after he collects himself, then either the final dark world, or a couple depending on when we face him down i can honestly see it just depending when we cross paths, who knows, but this is hyping me up, also this is a banger great work.
what
I don't really think Asriel is the Knight unless there is some plot twist or something that shows that Asriel never went to college.
He would have to sneak around town, break into buildings (the School and the Library), and create Dark Fountains without anybody noticing him which is pretty much impossible since everyone knows who he is.
But I do think the Knight will be a parallel to Flowey/Asriel though since he was the main antagonist of Undertale.
Asriel cant be Knight,at though,simply because is nearly impossible to sneak around town without getting noticed.
Kris would be more fitting to that role...
*He has the determination
*He has the power
*And he looks like a Knight in dark world
But we cant forget that maybe these more than one human in Hometown,so
@@tracey8121 Well you don’t know that, plus this isn’t official so I’m saying it’s cool that he is in this, and I’m thinking he does stuff from collage since he’s probably really smart, and makes time to be the knight plus who’s to say a dark fountain can’t be made from inside a created dark world, and Asriel, knows hometown so he can decide where it’s placed to enter. No Kris isn’t the knight i hate that theory.
@@tracey8121 Well in Undertale, Flowey is secretly spying on Frisk for the entire game, and nobody seems to notice him, so in Deltarune he could have the same sneaking capability, like opening dark fountains without people noticing.

it's awesome how toby fox lit the flame in many people's heart that like video game music.
excellent job
Undertale, lit a flame in us all honesty.
Really good! I will note that its odd that you put Catti as the main player character, I feel like Susie is the most likely to take over primary in this scenario.
I think it'd probably be Susie, Noelle, and Berdly instead, because Kris, Susie, Ralsei, Noelle, and Berdly seem to be the members of the Fun Gang. Still kind of odd how Ralsei isn't here.
@@Robot2wq ralseis meant to be the knight in this intepretation I think.
@@EmeraldCrowz I KNOW THOSE PINK HORNS EVERYWHERE I GO, YOU ARE RIGHT!
@@EmeraldCrowz They said Asriel in the description, if I'm correct.
On the topic of Ralsei here... he states in Chapter 2 that during The Roaring, all darkners would eventually turn to stone. It could be implied here that The Roaring is happening and has to be stopped, and the stone thing happened to Ralsei and he isn't there because of that. Just a thought, though.
So the motifs I'm hearing are:
Nightmare Knight
The Legend
Megalo Strike Back(The intro part)
Don't Forget
Lost Girl
☟︎✋💣
The secret boss motif
His Theme/Memory
It's an amazing theme... Though I refuse to accept playable Catti not wielding Jockington as a weapon, or Ralsei not being part of this fight for that matter.
Also, please stop the Kris abuse, first you literally hang them and then you sic a t-posing salesman on them. They suffer more in this video than in the first two chapters combined :(
There’s also a lot of similarities to Chaos king in the structure and some parts of the soundfont
Would love if Jockinton were wrapped aroud Catti's waist and she holded him kinda like Chaos King
The intro part from Megalo Strike Back comes from Earthbound
@@MathR_ The motif still definitely intended to be megalo strike back, in the context of undertale/deltarune it's always megalo strike back.
Should have put a Hopes and Dream/Save the World motif in it since this fan concept is pretty much a parallel to Asriel's boss fight from Undertale.
I like the gaster motifs.
These are the Leimotifs I have Noticed for now:
Nightmare Knight
The World Revolving/ Big Shot (that "Air is cracking with Freedom" Leimotif)
The Legend
Megalo Strikes Back
Girl Next Door/ Lost Girl
Gaster Theme
Did I forgot something? 'Cause I could add new Leimotifs if that's the case
Plus
His Theme (Isn't that Notorious, but if You listen closely in 3:20...)
I almost forget it. This theme is awesome
Thanks
I think somebody mentioned His Theme, which makes sense considering we're fighting Asriel.
@@MintyMoron64 Wait!
...
Is that Knight ASRIEL?
... That could explain the white part, but idk
@@MintyMoron64
OMG IT'S TRUE!!
It's on 3:20 and is subtle
But there is it
You forgot the prophecy at 0:26
(Idk how it is called correct me if im wrong)
“man college boring ah hell, gonna go make like 5-6 dark fountains now”
Wow! This sounds really good!
I can hear the knight vibes in the beginning
I love that there's a stray pixel at the bottom left of the arena.
Catti definitely doesn't look pissed enough
Apart from this major flaw, great work all around
Reminds me of Chaos King's theme cuz their Boss themes went to Calm then Out of nowhere Intense asf
One of the songs I listen to most this year (2023), that's wonderful
I LOVE how you had parts of Nightmare Knight in the song since I can realistically see Toby taking inspiration from that old song of his and adding it into the game.
The attention to detail on the picture is great, even the stray pixel is here! Amazing Knight theme too!
Why are their stats so low? Susie would have at least 200 HP by this point.
I assume this is the Pacifist Route. If it was the Weird / Snowgrave Route, they would have higher HP.
Or perhaps, the Knight somewhat weakened the girls' strength with a spell.
@@jojosbizarreadventurexpuyopuyoThe main three level up after each fountain sealed, getting more HP.
love the lore in the description!!! would love to see it get followed up!!
I'm the freedom leitmotif finder.
The freedom leitmotif is at 1:18
Until we meet again.
We meet again often
@@JacobHeaton-tx4gdI see you have done it before me, amazing
would be nice to see people make more dark world alts for the overworld characters, they looks greaaat
I just noticed the single dead pixel on the stage and now im pissed off
I just noticed wtf-
tbh kris' replacement wouldve fit better with berdly, since berdly knows what its like being mind controlled and kris saved THEM
I think Susie would be better since we do take her pov in chapter 1 while she was fighting Lancer. And she is one of the main/important characters in the game.
Berdly and Noelle are just side characters in my opinion even if they do have some relevance.
Also Berdly “dies” and if our choices don't matter then that could mean that he dies later on in the story.
I wanna see berdly available to fight in chapter 3
@@cgimichaelmyers2806 notably, Susie seems almost entirely immune to the Soul's influence. If this happened she would probably be mutually cooperating with the player more than anything
@@cgimichaelmyers2806 interestingly, in the character creation sequence in chapter 1, while you do get a response from the voice(most likely gaster) says "an interesting coincidence" upon naming yourself a lightner character, only the names Kris, Susie and Noelle get a special response from the "voice" saying that "you're about to meet someone wonderful", so I think Noelle is gonna be one of the more important characters and will definitely have some sort of relation to this "Angel".
Berdly is a dude
1:17 Love how you can hear the Freedom motif here.
The way the song sounds, it implies the Knight is some strange fusion between Gaster and Asriel. Gastriel if you will?
THAT SPAMTON AT THE END THOUGH-
0:25 and 1:05 NIGHTMARE KNIGHT MOTIF (I'm the Nightmare Knight Motif finder, farewell.)
I like the soundfounts or similiarities to kirby's deamland 3, which makes sense because Toby does have a song he made called "Knightmare Night" which uses Kirby's Dreamland 3 soundfonts
I can hear inspirations from Nightmare Knight in there and that's so fricking genius!
You say that, but everyones been wanting this, so no.
@@ivythay4259 yes* now scram
oh my god there's even a stray pixel in the fighting area.
updator, you are seriously awesome!!!
Smells like the final battle
* It’s the end yet again, or is it?
I doubt the Knight would be the final boss, at least as we see here.
T posing spamtong and kris at the end is the best lmao
god when i first heard that short gaster theme leitmotif my godamn fight or flight instict activated
I guess Raseli was taking a bathroom break for that one
Wow, hearing The Legend leimotief literally maked me shiver, that's an awesome concept for the Knight's theme
THIS IS SO AWESOME!!!!!
There's a theory out there saying that papyrus is the knight, and I believe that theory a little, and I really feel like the would be fitting for the knight papyrus. (Now excuse me while I make some text)
I feel like that theres a few people that COULD be the knight and people that AREN'T the knight, my main suspect of being the knight is Dess mainly because the bunker can be a dark world (of course we dont know how many dark fountains it takes to release the titans) and she's only opening them as a way to get back to the light world probably due Gaster or one of the titans being the mastermind behind the curtains and telling Dess thats how she gets home due to us having lack of Dess Holiday lore. Ralsei being the knight in my honest opinion is dumb like he could of just told Kris and Susie to open the dark fountains rapidly at castle town like why tell them how to seal them
@@OniGamer00 if the bunker was a darkworld wouldn’t ralsei be like, Guys there a dark fountain over there let’s seal it.
@@marshalllee6376 fair point...
@@marshalllee6376 ok i have something to counter that statement (hopefully): If the bunker is a dark world the reason its not sealed or Ralsei pointed out its existence is probably because he might not be aware of it's existence because he didn't 'exist' yet, remember all darkners are objects before the dark world is open (The unused classroom and computer lab are PRIME examples) perhaps Ralsei existed after Kris lost the toy horns he was given which might of been after the bunker dark world was created and Dess fell in
@@OniGamer00 wouldn’t he be aware of it once he’s created tho. Like once whoever made him explains that the prescense he feels is the grand fountain, and if he feels another one then that’s and bad should close it, wouldn’t he immediately just go “wait, but there’s like one way down south.”

this is excellent
btw you should make a soundcloud
Love how you used a bit of the kirby 64 soundfont at 1:35, pogs to you mate
i love how much this sounds like a final fantasy song with those trumpets, and the catty is just too good
God if you get to fight the knight and nightmare knight leitmotif isn't used i'll be so unbelievably sad
The part at 00:26 just hits different.
The idea that the Knight IS Asriel but he too is being controlled is a nice subversion of the popular fan theory.
I think the knight is RALSEI tho...
I have actually been saying it since the knight stuff was brought up, i so want a final fantasy
Why?
Wait a minute, was that SPAMTON?
that part at 1:00 just before gaster's theme reminds me a lot of klonoa: door to phantomile, wonder if that's done on purpose since both games seem to be somewhat based on dreams. this sounds really great!
If Asriel is the Knight, would that make Kris the Fork?
well played sir
Asriel, being the knife would be twisted since he’s a goat.
Listening to this with only one earbud is an interesting experience
I think this would actually be a really cool concept, because kris is usually the one telling the members what to do, but here they would have to think for themselves!
I really like the song and the design of the characters. Nice job!
I really appreciate the use of the Cucumber Quest "Nightmare Knight" leitmotif, it adds an authentic Toby Fox flair
If Toby Fox can repurpose Noismaster's theme for Mettaton EX he sure as shit should reuse Nightmare Knight for The Knight
