@Sam-Kowal Or something. I still think that the elves just did it for the aesthetic, but I could be wrong. I haven’t reread the series in a while.
Thanks! As far as individual people go . . . Not really? There’s basically one song for people in general, but there might be subtle differences from one person or group to another based on a variety of factors, some physical (namely age, how much muscle vs. fat someone has, and whether or not they have piercings/surgical plates/other random pieces of metal in their bodies) and some psychological (where they consider themselves to be from is one of the major factors in that). But it’s all the same song, just played in different ways. And yes, using the songs does require some skill in music, in particular the ability to play by ear. But the more skilled and creative my MC or anyone else is, the better she or they can use the songs. Thankfully, music is my MC’s passion, and was even before she started hearing the songs.
