    ...Do you see the same as me?
    Beauty, continuing to bloom, even in a place long forgotten.
    I did not have the will to depart; nor the desire.
    ...Why did they always search for an escape, as if we were imprisoned?
    What offering from the void could usurp the gift of life already given?
    This moment, right here! It is where we are meant to be.

      Makes me wonder why ancients wanted to ascend so much. Was it because of endless suffering from reincarnation? I don't think so, they were pretty advanced civilization, just look at iterators. Maybe religious? Probably, but that's stupid reason to abandon world they build, and all creatures they left, including iterators. Kinda egoistic, for someone who believed in karma and all that stuff.

    This song is so sad man... This echo was basically forced to ascend during the final mass ascencion of the remaining ancients, unlike the other echoes who tried to ascend of their own will but were trapped by their egos, this one was perfectly content to go on living in this world. One of the only ancients to actually be happy with just... living. Not searching for enlightenment or some higher purpose, just appreciating the beauty of this moment, right here. And despite that, they were forced to ascend, just like everyone else.

      That's an amazing coincidence that you thought of that because while I was developing my custom area (after your comment) I tried to implement an Echo into it, but it didn't quite work out and then later while I was trying to decide on the theme to use in a special area of the level I realised that I could use Past Echoes as it was to me like there was an Echo there before but had sadly disappeared. Luckily Past Echoes was already on the top list of songs to use as it fit the area quite well so it doesn't take away from the ambience of the place. Anyway, development ramble over. I just thought that it was a cool coincidence that you had commented this as Echoes and Ancients are two themes that are in a way related to one another.

      I know this is an ancient comment, but it's fitting that I find solace in a comment seemingly dead and buried, yet with life no older than two weeks ago. My favorite track is the one immediately after this in my mind, Theme V Reclaiming Entropy, which sounds like the funeral bells immediately after this march.

    As the Yellow Slugcat you're following in the footsteps as many before you. Hurrying along to the dark deep down.
    But you never see them. Not once.
    No distant shape, no tracks or traces, No sign that they're there
    And you're left to fend for yourself, trying to go along the supposed path that many have before you,
    You feel lonely when you're not being chased down by lizards or hunted by vultures.
    And here you are, traveling surrounded by dangers.
    Trying to ever so constantly find your way to safety.

    Some possibly cut content was found of a thing called "distant ghost" that looked like a black ghostly sperm with a black glow around its head, which was apparently meant to be used in the city background. Imagine this song playing and seeing hundreds and hundreds of these ghosts everywhere. That would be so melancholic and amazing, though it seems they were aiming for a more mysterious feel than a sad and melancholy one.
    Late note: I no longer believe this song would have gone with that setting, but rather the song called "Upperwall" instead.

      I think they were an older concept for the echoes. Hundreds of thousands of the Ancients must've lived in that city atop Five Pebbles. It would make sense to see so many of the black ghosts in the city area if they are semi-transcended Ancients.

      If you listen closely you can realize that it uses the same chords as the ost, pictures of the past and therefore also uses the same chords as the ost random gods.
      I related it against one of the greatest pains, loneliness, Pictures of the Past refers to how Slugcat was left alone, Random Gods refers to how Five Pebbles wanted to isolate himself from everyone, therefore staying alone, and this Echo was one of the few ancients who wanted to live, therefore he also remained alone.

    I heard about das really liking this one as his most fav, and while I don't have it as my own fav, I can see why he does like it
    It's a haunting sort of sound, something that feels almost uncomfortable in a way, which is probably the intent. Unrest fits well for an echo's fate.
    For me, I really have fallen in love with The Cycle, something about it gives off a despair feeling inside, which is an instant hook for me with ambient music as such. Funny to think it's essentially just the reverse of a song already made.
