Onyx Storm Playlist
This playlist follows Violet from the pressure of a war already underway into the uncertainty of seeking allies beyond the wards, moving between ominous instrumental passages, forward-driving rhythms, and songs about resolve, trust, and attachment. The vocal selections evoke the emotional stakes of Violet and Xaden’s bond and the cost of choosing who to believe, while the instrumentals leave room for the scale and danger of the journey.
