We Reflected You, Eyru is an original song from the TrueDark Rising world. It belongs to the earliest age -- the time of Lightmere, when the Highborn stood in Eyru's presence and reflected TrueLight back without effort or shame.
The song traces the moment when reflection became insufficient. Some among the Highborn turned their gaze toward the dark -- not seized, but drawn. Each step felt reasonable. Each concession felt small. The song does not describe a war or a seizure. It describes a drift -- the slow realization that returning to the light had become painful, and that the cost of turning back grew with every step taken forward into shadow.
The bridge carries the weight of the thing no one wanted to name: that the deeper road felt like the only path, even as the light behind them never failed. They did not fall because the light abandoned them. They fell because they stopped facing it.
Like all songs of this world, it serves as memory. It is meant to be sung with reverence, and understood fully only in hindsight.
