And as Ruby Gloom approached the dark forest,
she wondered to herself whether it was truly right
to search for light inside the shadows.
Whether it was possible to find beauty
among the tenebrous existence of trees
surrounded by nothing but themselves.
the answer came soon enough to her;
as she stepped towards the base of the forest,
gloom became enveloped in a tight embrace
held together by wooden branches.
She was not afraid, but she was also not comfortable.
It was the sort of feeling that reminded her of school.
And so, Ruby Gloom is exactly as we left her.
Cold and alone:
A spectre forced to haunt her past life,
to listen to these songs over, and over,
and over, and over, and over again.
Why do you still believe in me?

"Why do you still believe in me" melody is adapted from soddiken's song "people eater".
Intensely touching yet somewhat relaxing. Haley is probably the most-bestest guitar lady in the universe, by the way. Just listen to "The Bug Collector". Sabaudia
Normally I find electronic music like this obnoxious. This album is no exception, but there are some gems in there. Just listen to "Wait" and "Outro" and you'll know what I mean. Sabaudia
Ditch Effort (AKA "Anry Guiltar") is my favoritest music man. This album of his is cool, but check out his YouTube channel too. Just listen to "Brave New World". Sabaudia
