Vinyl Scratch: Hey, Octavia, what's the best possible place to play a string instrument?
Octavia: Why, on a cliff over a pool of molten lava, of course. Honestly, Vinyl, you should know that.
That way you can use the entire volcano as a resonator. Guess that Bass-Cannon is looking pretty second-rate round about now...
I DO NOT WANT TO CHANGE MY NAME YOU SHOWER OF TWERPS What if the volcano WAS the Bass-Cannon! O.o
RammetDiath Mind = Blown
so would that be a mind melt then?
Wheeze
I'm not a full brony but here is my version of what is happening. As Octavia looks across the battlefield, taking in the cacophony of sounds coming to her. The earth pony's hooves striking metal and flesh, the flapping of the hundreds of pegasi in the air diving and climbing to gain an advantage over the enemy, the unicorns casting spell and counter spell in hopes of fending off the enemy's unicorns, and King Sombra laughing above the battlefield, pleased with the destruction he see's below him. She knows she must play. She reaches for her most special bow, made from her own mane and tail, and with wood and phoenix feather as the back, she picks up her cello, and plucks one chord. And as that chord vibrates, the sound it makes carries like a wave over the field, causing every pony to stop for a moment, in awe, before realizing they might be attacked, and returning to battle each other once more. But despite that, Octavia keeps plucking her chords, and after a moment brings her voice into the harmony. And a few seconds later she hears her voice and cello joined by a symphony and amplified to carry even farther than before. She looks around confused, never pausing her song, and sees that Vinyl Scratch has come to help her. having heard her note, Vinyl had made her way up with her drum and amp, and decided to help Octavia spur the troops. And so Octavia brings her bow down and plays her first note. And that note is even more powerful than plucking the string, for the bow has special magic in it, for it not only has her hair, but her entire family line as well, and that magic,combined with the special wood and feather back, make her cello seem to come alive and speak through every note. The soldiers of Princess Celestia's army are so captivated and moved, they fight with renewed vigor, pounding the enemy in hope's to end this war. A fireball is launched at the two pony's on the hill, but strikes short of there position. The flames adding new light and sound to the song they play. Some pegasi come to help the two pony's, but Octavia shoos them away with a flick of her mane to go and help others in more dire need of them. And the two pony's play on through the battle, not stopping to eat or rest there hooves, for fear of everything they have done to help falling apart, and the darkness wash over Equestria. That is my version of this song and picture. If I did any grammatical errors go ahead and be a grammar Nazi I will not hold it against you. I hope that you might even help add on to my story and make it better. I had decided to set it in the time during "The Cutie Remark" Part 1 time frame, just because it seemed more like that time to me. Thank You.
I love this
*Octavia stands on a cliff looking down at the battle below. The sounds of battle grow ever sharp as the wind picks up speed and she closes her eyes. one....two... three... Octavia breathes slowly, waiting for her moment. She may not be a fighter in the Equestrian army, but this was something SHE could do! This was Her...nay, THEIR calling. Faint clinks sounded as the other musicians settled around her. Keeping her eyes closed, Octavia continued to calmly breathe. Suddenly a shift in the wind caused the battle sounds to quiet down, though not completely, and She knew it was time. She lifted her bow to the sky were both the celestial orbs shone (a sign the both Celestia and Luna were fiercely defending Eqyestria), before crying out. "For Equestra!" At once she the other musicians begin to play. Together they created a haunting song of mystery and beauty. A song that, carried by the wind, strengthened the tired Equestrian army. Ponies stood taller and their eyes shone brightly as the song filled their mind and spirits.....* (just a short story of this song.)
I stand on the stage and look at at all those sitting before me, I gaze at my friends, I close my eyes and start to play, just for her, I place the bow on my cello, I start to play, I start to move to the music, I find my stings are unbound to the rules of music, and that the music the cello makes is like a dream, like I am back with her, every time I am with her, Unbounded, never ending, Love, Until the end of time, I will play, I play for her, I make this music for.. her.
"fast-paced airy Octavia piece"
You got me sold.
"In my life I know of a mare. She is a loud, annoying ruffian. She loves... and composes dubsteps. Hardly a lady. But she is also my friend... Whom I'm sure that I can count on in my darkest days. Our friendship has its highs and lows, but I cherish each and every moment like a great adventure. She's not here to watch, but nevertheless... I dedicate this piece to my best friend, Vinyl Scratch."
As Octavia plays, Vinyl smiled from the back seat. "Jeez, I was only late for a few seconds and you started talking as if I'm dead." She chuckled.
This is not mine it was written by a youtuber called TrollFace I just want to share it.
wasn't that from a comment in evening star's "Octavia'?
+Leah McGregor yep ^-^
Dear Celestia, this would bring even Octavia herself to tears. Amazing doesn't do this justice at all. It's just perfect.
Watchpony got me here to witness this masterpiece.
I hear her rage. I hear her creations of storms. It calls her. To stand up and fight. However, this isn't an ordinary war, but a war of music, a music of storm as she reaches the top of the cliff where magma flows, but she doesn't fear it. Instead she plays her cello as her song reaches out to her enemy.
The picture makes me feel when Octavia plays the cello the ground falls apart but the only thing that can save the other ponies is her playing the cello. It is a cool picture that seems to show off the emotion quite well.
It was probably a bad idea to unbind those strings then :P
Hahaha. I see what you did there! Yea. So much emotion in this song.
I follow the same train of thought but in my mind its the world falling away in her mind. Only her and her cello stand, nothing else matters. All else fades away as the music consumes her.
that's sounds cool.
ShinigamiAros That's deep.
It's at 2:03, that everything just clicks into place. That solo, just woah. It never ceases being the leading drive to the music, everything just works around it. Bravo! Bravo! *Cheers*
Two Steps From Hell: Equestria Edition :D
Two Steps Feom Equestria :D
To Steps From Tartarus
Two Steps From Everfree Forest
Two steps from Friendship.
Perfection.
Good story line. Vinyl has been muted by a curse. And Octavia must travel miles into hell to find it. No help from Twilight and friends. Just her and her cello
Heh, the Cellist of Storms needs only her cello and she can brave the deepest pits of fire and flame.
Beautiful music. Never get tired of hearing it.
Wow, this is so hauntingly beautiful!
Me: The freak is UA-cam doing suggesting an MLP song to me.
Me 3 months later, a hardcore MLP fan: Oh ye of little faith, why doubtest thou?
Welcome to the herd, bro /)

Excellent piece. I applaud you for proving yourself capable of creating beautiful pieces time after time.
I can't even describe, how amazing it is... Good job !
Too epically awesome for words. ❤️💛💚💙💜
That brought tears of true glory to my eyes, thus causing a chain reaction in which chuck Norris swings by and nods approvingly at this beautiful masterpiece formed by the gods themselves
This really has a nice adventure feeling to it. Kinda reminds me of Assassins Creed. Well done.
My mind just got Sonic Rainnuked. By far one of the most epic pieces which you've composed. And the fact that it's Octavia makes it 20% cooler. Brofist to you my good sir! :D
Not sure if you were talking to me or Maestro, but I'll assume it's me, since I'm so awesome :P
Take that, Bass Cannon! Octavia is so brawling she just brought her cello to fight the final boss.
So awesome I'm so glad I subbed to you I love this song so much keep It coming. Bro hoof to all who heard this song
+Djoron Treandor The "solo" at 2:03 is actually a cello, I also thought those were violins when I first heard the song :P
Gosh this song is amazing, I listened to it for ages playing Space Engineers, it just fit well to me. your song is amazing as is the artist who made the cover, it's amazing.

rewatching this in 2017
Why have I not heard to you before?
You are so talented :)
I wake up, feeling the light passing through the windows of my aircraft...
I was knocked unconscious by a piece of debris from an enemy aircraft I downed last mission
I checked my aircraft's damage, the engine was partially leaking and half my left wing was damaged
I knew my generals would be worried, I hadn't made contact with the S.S. Koldren...
then I heard a powerful blast: a flak cannon, but I was above thick cloud... they couldn'tve hit me...
then I heard roaring aircraft engines, and trough the clouds I can see that another massive air battle was taking place, they seem to be searching for me...
my airmen were getting shot down, and only I had the biggest gun on that sector that day
so with strong spirit, I managed to fix some of the engine leaks and the wing damage (I have a spell where I can spawn objects) and I dove down, straight into the enemy, knocking them out, one by one...
my first try at making a story based off a song :P
srsly tho this song is amazing
I'm nicknaming this "Climbing Etna"
Great work like always
You aways put a great background cover for your music =P
This reminds me of Skyrim good old times anyone else ?
I usually don't like non vocal songs. But that was magnificent.
This could be amazing even if it wasn't pony inspired. Enter this in a compition, you will win.
wow, found this through the artwork on DA. its a great piece. im gonna go ahead and sub now =]
¡Amazing!
Hey Maestro.
You've made epic pieces for
Cadence. (Love heart)
Octav: (Strings unbound)
Star Swirl The Bearded (Legacy of Star Swirl)
King Sombra. (From shadow unto crystal)
And there's probably some I've missed.
Have you considered doing a serie like that?
legendary
BEST ONE EVER
How can be every song so successful? I love it , if only someone would make kinda dramatic movie or something...
beatiful
I like it so far but nice. :)
Does anyone else have this feeling where this could become Assassins Creed Music?
Damn, 10 years. Hope you are doing fine my friend
I feel like I've heard this somewhere else, I just can't remember
You never disappoint /)
