I feel like maybe this is an unsurprising choice of character to write about. In fact, I've been so torn up about the fact that I HAVEN'T written about Elden Ring's tribute to Guts that I just got up one day and named a whole upcoming EP after him. Inspired by the game's Ranni questline once again, "Halfwolf" is a farewell ballad from Blaidd as he realizes his fate; that his ties to the Golden Order would eventually cause him to betray his friends, no matter how much he loved them. He fought with them every step of the way, and even aided Ranni the Witch in her victory knowing her success would bring conflict and punishment for him. This song is Blaidd's declaration of love and loyalty to his adopted sister, as his own soul breaks within him.

This track was mastered by Fishpaste2100.

Lyrics:

Even if it's not forever
We've together tread this path so far
Wary of the will that made me
Still you leave your trust within my scars
Winterborn and forged strong
Searching for centuries long
Built for a dream like ours

Keep holding on for me
I'll lift you as I break
Torn to the smallest piece
Half dreaming half awake
Take my conflicted hands
My heart will light your way
Know me for what I am
Half wolf and half afraid

Striving to control my instinct
Terrified my nature won't obey
I confess the burden's heavy
Skies begin to change and soon I'll fade
Don't take the risk on me
I'll turn my tail and leave
Before I lose my way

Keep holding on for me
I'll lift you as I break
Torn to the smallest piece
Half dreaming half awake
Take my conflicted hands
My heart will light your way
Know me for what I am
Half wolf and half afraid

I can embrace the cold
But I can't change my soul
My nature still remains
So long our quiet fight
My battle ends tonight
But our bond stays the same

When the voices
Make my choices
And I can't ignore the sound
Without purpose
I deserve this but
I refuse to drag you down
I will fail you
I may hunt you
I must try to
In the end
So conflicted
I've resisted
Tried to fix it
Now I can't
None can mend
What I am

Keep holding on for me
I'll lift you as I break
Torn to the smallest piece
Half dreaming half awake
Carry on for the cause
Spread light across these shores
Remember who I was
Half wolf, forever yours

Half wolf, forever yours
You know I'm not afraid

Hold on
It gets better
It's here at the end we turn it all around
Keep faith
I'm still with you
We all need a friend to watch the world die out
