NEATH! A Fallen London Musical | Mask of the Rose Song!

MASK OF THE ROSE IS AVAILABLE NOW! Mask of the Rose on Steam: Mask of the Rose on GOG: Mask of the Rose on Switch (US eShop): In February 1862, with no warning at all, the great city of London fell through the surface of the Earth. This was meant to be a year of progress and industry. The great exposition. Trams. A new sewer system. Instead, London and her citizens find themselves in a cave, forced to adapt to this perplexing new circumstance as both the boundaries of reality and the tight grip of Victorian societal convention begin to fade into the shadows that now seem to watch without eyes. Six months on from the fall, London has extinguished her fires and buried her dead, but there are still many mysteries to be answered… Who committed the first murder in this new world? And why does their victim seem so cheerful? Who are the cryptic Masters of the Bazaar who have taken control of the city? And why are they so interested in the affairs of people’s hearts? Where did all the street signs go? Did your hat just say something? All of these secrets and more are there to be discovered. And maybe you can find love along the way? - So, I may have gotten carried away and written enough lyrics for 3 songs... Failbetter were very gracious in letting me create my own characters for this project, to better explore the world and ideas of Fallen London without being tied to (and risking spoiling) the stories of the characters you’ll meet in Mask of the Rose. With the exception of Mr Pages, you won’t meet any of my characters in this video in-game. They were all written for this song to show as many facets of Fallen London as I could. We have low, middle and upper class and with each we touch on the new laws, freedoms and struggles and the new mysteries of the world beneath. Characters looking for love, looking for intimacy and just looking for companionship, a direct correlation with your options in Mask of the Rose’s relationships. Fallen London, freed from those Victorian societal norms, has always been a diverse, inclusive and unapologetically queer world. And as a queer creator myself it was so important to make sure that was properly represented here, especially at this newly explored early point in the timeline, as the city comes to terms with what it means to have that freedom of self-expression. So, Cassie was created specifically to fill this role and explore these themes. I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t a little nerve-racking playing a femme presenting, character here on the channel for the first time, but as a genderfluid person myself, it felt natural and meant so much to me to get that opportunity. I hope you enjoy her as much as I enjoyed playing her. This project has been one of the most fun things I have ever had the chance to work on and a real career highlight for me. I want to thank everyone in the credits below from the bottom of my heart for working so hard on this. Everyone gave it their all and I couldn’t have done it without you! #fallenlondon #maskoftherose #sunlesssea #ad Check out the full Stupendium originals playlist for all of my original songs!
