Eshkital – Epic Orchestral Fantasy Music | Emotional Soundtrack for Reading & Meditation

Описание: Hey all! Welcome back to Elder Bastion. This week we enter the gates of Eshkital! For this track, we’ve moved away from traditional western sounds to create something truly distinct. We've blended world vocals, gamelan, dutar, kora, oud, and elder flute with sweeping strings to create a soundscape that feels both exotic and timeless.

Perfect for your DnD campaigns, fantasy writing sessions, worldbuilding projects, and deep focus work.

~ Eshkital: The City of the Sacred Flowers ⚔️
World written by: Ryan Z Nock

Eshkital, the first city founded along the blessed Chebas River, rose from a legendary age when its people united forty tribal champions—each sworn to a different god—to halt a divine Deluge sent by the god of desert storms. A century later, the city thrives as a vibrant crossroads of culture and faith, renowned for the brilliant flowers that line its riverbanks—poppies, arfaj, and the dusky winter crocus. Protected not by walls but by the river-goddess Chebas, whose fertile blessing sustains the region, Eshkital welcomes farmers, pilgrims, and worshippers to the many temples of its forty faiths. Yet its greatest challenge is not war but ideology: the rising might of No-Ostalin, a stern rival city of ziggurats and stone-carved laws. Where Eshkital embodies inspiration, No-Ostalin embodies control—and as their philosophies clash, the question remains whether harmony is possible, or whether Eshkital’s seven sacred flowers can offer any protection should conflict ignite.
