The Hooded One | Dark Folk Music | Path of Exile 2

He walked beside me through the rotting wood. "The Hooded One" is told from the perspective of the exile walking beside the mysterious figure who appears at the start of Path of Exile 2 and slowly realizing the hooded stranger is something ancient, broken, and divine. A god who made the Beast to free humanity from the tyranny of gods. A god who stepped aside for love. And has been watching the world burn ever since. For those discovering this through music: Path of Exile 2 is a dark fantasy action RPG set on the cursed continent of Wraeclast. The Hooded One is a mysterious figure who walks beside the player from the very beginning, present in every act, every town, every moment of the journey. He is eventually revealed to be Sin, one of the gods of Wraeclast, who created the Beast thousands of years ago to suppress divine power and give humanity an age free from the tyranny of gods. Every civilization that followed used that power for destruction. And Sin has been walking among mortals ever since, the Forgotten One. This is a fan-made track.
