Musical Tribute to Dwarf Fortress

So, I've been a fan of Dwarf Fortress for a few years now, and in that time I've had my fair share of 'fun'. My most recent fortress, however, has been the most ridiculous in terms of the scale of its downfall (and its steel industry). As a whirlwind of fun consumed the lower fortress, my last waxmaker managed to seal off the lower sections just moments before his wounds killed him. So, I thought, wouldn't it make for an epic tale if an expedition were to make the perilous journey to the fortress, with no knowledge of what brought about its end?

Thus, I wrote an orchestral piece dedicated to this great tragedy, called 'Reclamation'. I hope to have five written when all's said and done, but this is just the introduction to the story. I figured I'd put it here, since... you know... Dwarf Fortress :P
