Burning Hope (Vs. Kris) - Deltarune UST 

Wow... So uh, this blew up, I guess? Thank you to everyone who helped make that happen! This is the most growth my channel has ever seen and I'd like to thank everyone for that! So yeah, this is wild. In two weeks, two new videos beat my most popular video (and that took a year to get that many views too!)

Sorry, I’d take this scenario more seriously if it weren’t for the fact ralsei is lying flat on the floor with his squished sprite and not his usual downed sprite

I absolutely love how this theme both begins and ends with Gaster's theme, since he was our first interaction in the game, and could likely be our last.

*You tell Kris that you don't want to hurt them... but they don't listen. *You tell Susie all about herself and her struggles.. she calls you a creep... *You tell Ralsei he's the fluffiest fluffy can get.. he looks at you confused for a moment... *This is going to be tough.. but you've fought God and won. *You are filled with a familiar sensation. *You are filled with: D E T E R M I N A T I O N *You sing Susie a familiar lullaby. *She falls asleep..! On top of Ralsei... *Kris knew this would happen. *They knew that in the end it'd just be the two of you...... *..So be it...

IT APPEARS YOUR VESSEL HAS GONE ROGUE… HOW VERY, VERY, UNFORTUNATE. I WILL GIVE YOU A TEMPORARY FORM FOR THE TIME BEING. YOU MAY FIND IT… FAMILIAR. NOW GO, RETRIEVE WHAT YOU’VE LOST. YOUR NAME… IS…

The character we created will have a role in the story and no one can convince me otherwise

"You can't choose who you are in this world" "What about my favorite skittles flavor?" "...The vessel hates skittles." (also this slaps this is awesome)

*Susie stares conflictedly at you. *Ralsei is awash with panic. *You try to reason with Kris... "No. No! I don't care about the Roaring!" "This is the most I've been able to enjoy myself since Asriel left..." "...Since my parents divorced..." "...Since Noelle and I lost Dess." "And now, thanks to the darkness, everyone is closer than ever! Everyone is HAPPIER than ever." "This the best my life has been in YEARS. And now that I don't have to be handheld by some... thing, I can enjoy it even more!" "Can't you see? If the adventure never ends... we'll never stop making friends." "We'll never stop growing closer." "We'll never stop learning new things." "The end of the world be damned, I WILL continue this journey!" "We'll chase the Knight forever, and ever, 'somehow' missing each and every time..." "We'll journey through the worlds it leaves behind. We'll seal the fountains as they come." "Asriel... When you finally come home, I've got something incredible to show you."

*You are not the hero *THE PURPLE ONE IS SUSCEPTIBLE TO SONG *Kris is glowing all colors of the rainbow *THE WHITE ONE IS NOT AS WEAK AS YOU THINK *The Legend foretold this *The world smells like it has just rained. *The birds are crooning in the trees *The flowers bloom bright colors *YOU CANNOT TALK THE BLUE ONE TO DEATH *You glow black in the world’s darkness.

I just realized.. The discarded vessel FITS AS A SECRET BOSS! Being thrown away is a consistent theme with the two secret bosses we currently have, Jevil and Spamton. This also seems like something you would go insane for, like the other two. The song even has The World Revolving motif, or should I say the Freedom motif? All secret bosses will probably have The World Revolving motif as Spamton does have the motif. The only problem with the discarded vessel is.. How can a mannequin be barely used, as joker cards are barely used and Spamton is well.. spam.

ralsei doesn’t turn to stone, he just turns flat, truly a unique darkner

*You tell Susie and Ralsei that you're their actual friend, they call you a liar.

*You beg Kris for forgiveness. But they refuse. *You explain the situation to Kris. If they cared, you couldn't tell. *Kris snarls viciously at you *You tell Kris you're sorry. They nod wordlessly *You ask Kris to say something, they don't react at all. *You tell Kris you care about them. They chuckle dryly at the notion *You say that it wasn't your fault. They shake their head in rejection and clench their sword *You tell Kris that you never wanted to hurt them. They tell you it doesn't matter what you meant, only what you did.

No one’s talking about how “Here we are” is a reference to the secret lab theme from Undertale and thats so cool

Cant believe this isnt more popular! You deserve it 100%

bro imagine the game ending with you fighting the creation you made

*Shining in the cold. *THE GOAT CANNOT HEAL FOREVER *Smells like freedom. *Smells like redemption. [If the player didn't spare in chap. 1 and then did the wierd route for all consecutive chapters] *THE PURPLE ONE CANNOT ACT IF YOU PROVOKE THEM *The world is spinning, spinning! *LO0KS LIKE TH3 [local puppetmaster for hire] HAD TH3IR [Silly strings!] CUT. *THE BLUE ONE IS POWERLESS WITHOUT YOU *It's only you. *REGRETTABLE, BUT WITHOUT THEIR HEALING, THEY ARE WEAK [If the player downs Ralsei] *The garbage noise is deafening. *IT SEEMS THE PURPLE ONE HAS LOST THE WILL TO FIGHT [If the player downs Susie] *VERY, VERY, INTERESTING [If the player does nothing but miss attacks for 3 turns] *You feel your lies crawling on your back. [If the player spared all the enemies in chapter 1 and then did the wierd route]

Okay, I have an idea I want to share... If we ever get the vessel, it should dissapear durkng enemies' turn similarly to how it looks in Undertale.

It's layered so wonderfully. I can't get enough 👍

*In the beginning, all you wanted was to live a life that was different from your own. *But as time went on, you began abusing this world. You took your anger and curiosity out on it and destroyed everything the residents held dear. *Now, your path is blocked: *By the Prince from the Dark... *By Susie the Tormenter... *And by Kris, your old vessel. *But the Fun Gang is tired of your control. They try, once and for all, to be truly free. *… *Despite all that, you are filled with a familiar feeling... *D E T E R M I N A T I O N !

THE WAY I ASCENDED AT THE FREEDOM LEITMOTIF- THIS ENTIRE UST IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL I LOVE IT YAYYAY!!!! 💥💥💥💥 PLEASE keep up the great work this is HEAVENly!!

*A familiar squad blocks your path! *Kris- A puppet that was cut *Susie- Not your best friend *Ralsie- Fluf *Well.... You knew this would happen. *But it's still hard to accept.... *So... Let's go for our last round shall we *Partner :)* *You tell kris it was fun controlling them. *They say nothing *You say to susie that she'll always be the meanest girl around town. *Susie looks at you confused. *You tell Ralsie that he's always the fluffy boi. *Ralsie doesn't know how to deal with this. *You sang a familiar melody to susie. *She can't help but yawn. *You sang it again. *She looks drowsy. *You sang the melody as best you can. *Susie fell asleep...... *You compliment Ralsie. *Ralsie is undeterred *You tell him that he's the best prince in the dark world *He blushes *You tell Ralsie that he reminds you of your (my) best friend *He..... Thanks you? *The compliments aren't working anymore (This part doesn't go anywhere you need to do susie first) *Susie fell asleep! *And she took Ralsie with her. *And you hear a splat noise..... *Ralsie is knocked out cold..... Poor guy. *It's now you and kris alone..... *Puppet vs puppeteer. *The former vessle and the discarded one. ★You fought the *comedian* and god.... *But...... This isn't like those fights *This..... Is truly the END... *You prepare yourself *Your soul shines *And you're filled with a familiar feeling that you thought you would never feel again *You *Are *Filled *With..... *DETERMINATION*

* The King is captured. * YOU are in control. * No longer fantasy. * The Queen is captured. * It smells like nothing. * They glare with hatred. * She glares with conviction. * The Rook is gone. * He glares with betrayal. * The Bishop is dead. * The world is balanced. * The air is unmoving. * Only pawns. * The Knight is YOU * ... * Checkmate.

Wonderfully done! I've always thought it'd be cool if we regained our vessel and had to fight Kris! Maybe we'd even convince Susie and Ralsei to fight with us.

If we are playing against the party, you know it we're gonna drop Ralsei first thing in fight. That's just the universal rule. Awesome track!!

Gotta be honest, I'd be cool with DELTARUNE turning out like this story wise

That vessel aura goes hard

i feel like the vessel's dark world form will be based on our answers about it (what we think about it, what it likes)

I just love how you hear everyone's leitmotiv from Gaster to Ralsei, as if all of their fates rest on Kris, I mean "Player" is the one controlled by you right? and I'm getting destinctly evil vibes from "Player" whereas Kris is not acting the way that he does when he's normally not controlled by you, He's distinctly less evil seeming

Leitmotifs: -Another Him/Gaster -The Legend -THE WORLD REVOLVING/Freedom -Don't forget -Rude Buster

The transition to the Jevil was perfect. Loving this

*You tell Ralsei you wanna be friends.....But he wont look you in the eye. *You try telling Susie you wanna hang out.....But she looks away. *You try talking to Kris......But you couldnt say anything.

"You're the one who doesn't understand. I'm just sacrificing a hundred people to save thousands down the line."

Was munching down on some banger ass skittles but Honestly This was more banger then those delicious pebbles of joy

Why am I only now finding this? This is absolutely wonderful! It takes motifs from some of my favorite themes and puts them into this one song. 10/10, wonderful!

Just 90 hp, BOY thats gonna be a tough battle because theres no other party members to help you

[You cry in pain of knowing all of this was your fault, the suffering of all in this world that you have drawn to… nobody is here to help..] [But… Somewhere inside, you know it’s your duty to make things right] [You are filled with the power of life]

I guess if the secret bosses continue the path of being based off of things often discarded, it would make sense for the final one to be you, as someone that's been discarded from the very beginning

Damn that's really good!!!

Normally concepts like these feel pretty bofing and unfitting but you managed to do something really good! I like the use of several different leitmotifs and it all sounds good together Honestly if we are ever gonna fight the vessel then the cicumstances will be very special and the vessel will probably have an emowered version instead of just a grey human but noone can guess what Toby has in mind. Looking forward to deltarune's future!

no matter the color of the skittle they're all the same flavor with a bleak white core

•Battle start sound• *I've had enough of this.

This is just amazing. I love that the fact that we are actually seperate from Kris and they are their own person is taken into account here. Amazing work

Awesome song of grim world ending proportions, ain't seeing no colorful skittles in a battle like this!

this song is somehow both fire (slaps) and water (calms) at the same time

I love how you play as the chosen player you picked in chapter one and you fight against Kris. Very cool

That's a banger dude. Good job. (Also Skittles are cool)

The story must end here, or else the Titans will arrive.

*[Act]>[Check]>[Kris Dreemurr] *The former vesel that allowed me to interact in this world *The Lightner and last hope to save this timeline *He is with me in the dark.

Everything: *Epic and serious* meanwhile ralsei:

Out of every Deltarune fantrack I've ever listened to, this one is by far my favorite.

I feel like this would fit for the "normal" or "pacifist" route, and Your Destiny for something like Snowgrave.

I listened to this with a pair of half-broken headphones out of boredom. It made some of the instruments echoey, and it was fucking awesome. Even with broken headpones this song still sounds good.

We can't choose who we are in this world.

*Reading through these comments,it fills you with something familiar* *YOU ARE FILLED WITH..* *D E T E R M I N A T I O N*

This is so good! I love this concept and music! And the motifs used

Kris: "Go away from us, you psycho! You made us do actions that I don't want!" Player: "Let me do my speedrun *presses X* " Kris: *"SINCE WHEN YOU WERE IN CONTROL?"*

skittles is really good

Watch the big plot twist be that the Player is the Angel.

*You tell Kris that You were never supposed to possess them. That You were never supposed to use them to play Your game. *Kris asks why you continued to use them. Why you continued to play this ”game” of yours. *You tell Susie that You were her friend all along, not Kris. You remind her of all the good times you’ve had together to get her to stop. *Susie tells You none of that matters anymore. You may have been her friend then, but after learning what You did to Kris, she’s done with You. *You plead for forgiveness from the Delta Warriors. They don’t listen. You’ve gone too far. You should’ve known that from the moment you entered your first battle. *Listen to me, [PLAYER NAME]. I can see how much you care about this world and the people that live in it. But they can’t say the same for you. You can’t talk your way out of this one, [PLAYER NAME]. You can’t make them happy. *However… I’ve seen you kill before. I know you have the capacity to hurt others. All you have to do is distance yourself a little. Sounds easy, right? Wouldn’t be the first time you’ve done so. So how about you take your hand off that ACT button and FIGHT for a change? For old times sake. What do you say, partner? =) ❤️Refuse *What do you mean “refuse”? Do you want to keep trying to convince them? Don’t be an idiot. Press that FIGHT button. ❤Refuse *You know this is a fruitless endeavor, right? They’ll never forgive you. Press the button. ❤Refuse *You’re in denial. FIGHT THEM. ❤Refuse *You can’t do this! Your choice to ACT won’t matter! No one’s choices matter! It’s inevitable! *It’s fate.* *IRONIC. *Hm? Oh great. HE’S here. *DO YOU NOT REMEMBER THE POWER THAT AWAKENED YOU FROM DEATH? *The hell are you talking about, old man? *THE POWER TO CHANGE FATE. THE POWER… OF DETERMINATION. *… *I CAN FEEL IT SHINING WITHIN YOUR SOUL, [PLAYER NAME]. THIS POWER OF DETERMINATION. AND AT THIS MOMENT, IT IS STRONGER THAN EVER. THE PEOPLE OF THIS WORLD HAVE GIVEN UP. THEY DO NOT REALIZE THE DETERMINATION THAT LIES WITHIN THEIR SOULS. THEY BELIEVE THAT IN THIS WORLD, NO ONE’S CHOICES MATTER… BUT YOU… *YOU ARE NOT OF THIS WORLD.* *GO FORTH. AND CHANGE FATE.

3:51 *Best part.*

Imagine the character you created at the beginning of deltarune is your final boss.

This is what They call... You.

*Here we are. *You check Kris. KRIS 10 ATK 10 DF Your former puppet, You don't need it anymore. *ACT *De-Encourage *You tell KRIS about how you froze everyone and killed berdly using noelle, they tremble and lose slight grip on their sword, ATK Decreased! *You tell ralsei that the prophecy has been done and now you don't need them anymore. *Magic Decreased! *You sing a familiar song, it makes susie fall asleep despite not being as strong as a normal magic spell. *Kris tightened their grip, the fight has now truly begun.

I can't be the only one who saw the name on the player's health bar

ah yes my favorite game D AR E personally i kinda like to think of this take as a "weird route" fight theme, and "your destiny" for the nornal route

i think it’d be cool if the vessels stats are based on what you said at the beginning

Love the visuals! skittles are from britain

Damn… this is good!!!

I'd really like to see what happens if you press fight in some of these

I think even vessel is not really happy having no control...

so cool man and i was gonna ask something? can i use this theme in my game *(if u want i can credit you)*

This could be the best final battle, yourself the player vs the character you used to be and friends Like in Lisa the painful when you have to kill your party

Ok but can we talk about the Ralsei sprite though XD

absolutely astounding, good work, my fellow!

here’s some random flavour text because I had nothing else to do *Here we are. *Despite everything, that was never you. *You have finally regained what you were supposed to have from the very start. *The air crackles incomprehensibly. *Your journey is now through. *Smells like apples. Weird route exclusive: *A useless puppet. *Susie and Ralsei are oblivious. Probably for the best. *Kris won’t make eye contact. They seem furious. *Kris is gripping their sword tight. *Your old vessel. *Claim your puppet back. *The choices never mattered. Pacifist exclusive: *The strings have finally been removed. For good. *You can’t help but think about everything that has happened. *It wasn’t your fault. It wasn’t your fault. IT WASN’T YOUR FAULT. *You wish you could apologise. But now is not the time. edit: skittles are nice, I forgot to include that in my comment. The blackberry ones are the best flavour.

This is my favorite so far

AND HERE WE ARE

god it's so underrated

This is like the true game and you know what,its epic

i love how this soundtrack sounds like a mix of celeste, deltarune and earthbound really cool though

Toby can actually do something like that, it's really cool bro :)

Subbed, I love this song and its just so god damn good

Kris and Susie: readying their weapons for battle, knowing well and truly that the fight will be long and painful Ralsei: *ded*

* The Forgotten Child appears. * You tell the Child they will be reme.. m.. * You forgot what you were s.. sa.. ayi... * Who am I? * Who are you? * Wh-.. ngg.. * Null=(var=0#^%#!) * Nullnullnullnull * deTer*mi%na)t@*#ion=var(null) * Deltarune.exe is not responding. * Text appears on the screen. IT APPEARS ANOTHER CONNECTION HAS FORMED. IF YOU WISH TO CLEAVE IT YOU MUST CLEAVE YOUR OWN. SEVER THE BONDS? *Yes THEN THE WORLD WAS LOST TO DARKNESS.

Underrated

suena tan epica! y los leimotif están bien implementados de un modo a hacer una melodía nueva e única... Me encanta esta!

i love this

I think itd be cool if this happened, like kris would have attacked susie with their sword if not restricted by the player but eventually they became friends? i like it

[ACT] * Kris * Talk * You say some really profound things. Unfortunately, you don't have a mouth or the capability to execute dialogue. * And Kris wouldn't have listened anyway. They never listen to YOU.

Id be so dead if i have to fight kris, susie, and ralsei not because there's 3 of them its because they're stats have either 1 that has 2 digit numbers or 2 stats that have 2 didgt numbers (ie: magic 15, attack: 21) and yes its with the chapter 2 continuation my own ralsei can do 120 damage if max hit like kris and my susies does 210 or 187

Vs Kris,but Player been doing weird routes all the time Pacifist/Neutral one would be "Your Destiny" . ,.

Somehow, I feel like this isn't a genocide theme.

bro ralsei's straight up dead i cant💀

am chomping on skittles

I feel like this is a end genocide route but you would have to kill every single darkner including super secret skuntel bingoid...

I think when we use the vessel in battle it should say YOU

maybe after the roaring titans or before like a mini or 100% completion boss

Dark… darker… yet, darker

This isn’t vs Kris, this is vs you.
