News carries fast of murderous plunder without mercy, the mysterious oppressors travel with unprecedented numbers of soldiers \u0026amp; decisions are made for the mountaineers to leave their ancestral lands. The townsfolk live an ascetic lifestyle \u0026amp; their clans are able to gather vital resources quickly, meeting at boats on the east side within days. The Runecaster leads his longship with many others across The Jagged Sea towards unchartered territory.

The climate here is drastically different to their own \u0026amp; the mountaineers will need to adapt quickly in order to survive. At daybreak upon arrival, our hero breaks the seal of a book containing the last words left by the Elders. The passages describe a unique yellow flower which is hidden at the heart of a jungle in a remote landscape. Provided that the mountain-folk can find safe passage \u0026amp; the rare flower's location, only then should they lay the foundations of a new home.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist : Runecaster\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel : Cosmic Ocean\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2025-08-21T10:18:16+09:00","created_at":"2025-08-20T12:10:59+09:00","vendor":"Tobira Records","type":"","tags":["ambient","cosmic ocean","new","post newage","recommended","tape"],"price":596500,"price_min":596500,"price_max":596500,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":47630721057018,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Runecaster \/\/ The Bitter Mountains Trilogy 3xTAPE BOX","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":596500,"weight":430,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/rune2_8b4636af-8896-4dc1-a0e6-f73ba0207d75.jpg?v=1755739171","\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/rune1_7976a681-cf95-4b17-b2a4-ee0121ca0adb.jpg?v=1755739171"],"featured_image":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/rune2_8b4636af-8896-4dc1-a0e6-f73ba0207d75.jpg?v=1755739171","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":36595612909818,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":900,"width":900,"src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/rune2_8b4636af-8896-4dc1-a0e6-f73ba0207d75.jpg?v=1755739171"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":900,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/rune2_8b4636af-8896-4dc1-a0e6-f73ba0207d75.jpg?v=1755739171","width":900},{"alt":null,"id":36595612877050,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.333,"height":900,"width":1200,"src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/rune1_7976a681-cf95-4b17-b2a4-ee0121ca0adb.jpg?v=1755739171"},"aspect_ratio":1.333,"height":900,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/rune1_7976a681-cf95-4b17-b2a4-ee0121ca0adb.jpg?v=1755739171","width":1200}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003eイギリスのダンジョンシンセ作家Runecasterが、2025年8月に自身主宰レーベルCosmic Oceanからリリースした3本組カセットボックスです。\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eダンジョンシンセ〜ポストニューエイジ・アンビエント34曲を収録。DLコードと冒険の地図が付属。\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=2480749477\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/artwork=none\/track=1101177885\/transparent=true\/\" style=\"border: 0;

Born in a time of peace, the Runecaster lives \u0026amp; works within a small community of traders, unable to grow many of their own crops in the cold and harsh environments of the far North. The Runecaster's knowledge of the sea, fishing and of mining rare metals, hewn from ancient rock, are essential to the prosperity of his people.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eRumours are spreading of the King's conspiracy to destroy \u0026amp; steal from the peaceful mountain folk and tensions increase as more black flag pirate ships are allowed to pass through from the Scarlet Kingdom to ruin \u0026amp; plunder their age-old trade routes.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Runecaster sets off with a small party of 4 adventurers in an attempt to open dialogue \u0026amp; seek advice from the mysterious \u0026amp; isolated sea people located across the bleak Dyrne Pass, west of the mountains. It's here that the party learns of a hidden object of great archaeological interest which is said to be located on a small island past the Sword Shores.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Scarlet Kingdom:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThis story takes place directly after the events of the previous tape.

Left to their quiet mountaintops \u0026amp; humble villages, the traders live quietly, weaving cloth garments \u0026amp; exquisite shawls. Any time of prosperity brings with it security, comfort \u0026amp; creativity. The shepherds are sprightly, the quarry sparkles with precious delights \u0026amp; The Runecaster's people are content.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eAt the winter solstice, an augury meeting of the elders in Brekka Vale predicts darkness \u0026amp; uncertainty. Within weeks the first raids of a decade occur \u0026amp; the fishing town of Grimnir is sacked (see map, Runecaster I). News carries fast of murderous plunder without mercy, the mysterious oppressors travel with unprecedented numbers of soldiers \u0026amp; decisions are made for the mountaineers to leave their ancestral lands. The townsfolk live an ascetic lifestyle \u0026amp; their clans are able to gather vital resources quickly, meeting at boats on the east side within days. The Runecaster leads his longship with many others across The Jagged Sea towards unchartered territory. As tradition dictates, only the founding elders remain on the shores, raising their hands slowly to bid farewell as they prepare to meet their enemy.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eOur adventure takes place as the community seeks refuge\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e. After a difficult journey of weeks into new waters, the longships finally arrive at the steaming shores of the Stony Marsh. The climate here is drastically different to their own \u0026amp; the mountaineers will need to adapt quickly in order to survive. At daybreak upon arrival, our hero breaks the seal of a book containing the last words left by the Elders. The passages describe a unique yellow flower which is hidden at the heart of a jungle in a remote landscape. Provided that the mountain-folk can find safe passage \u0026amp; the rare flower's location, only then should they lay the foundations of a new home.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist : Runecaster\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel : Cosmic Ocean\u003c\/p\u003e"}
