Guts and Blackpowder - Warum Betrubst Du Dich Mein Herz (IN GAME VERSION)

for context on why this is the 'in game version', please read the bottom of the description

"Salvation lies across the river" was a line I wrote at like 5am, thinking I would replace it with something better later.

"I remember this one Prussian soldier - like many of us - I don't think he was prepared for, not only the physical effects of this goddamned plague that brings the dead up once more, but also the mental effects of it. He was always seen crying look outside, constantly going on about how we should've helped those poor civilians or put them out of their misery because he knows they're suffering from the awful plague from Hell, we all did. But the risk was too high. After we left the church, he didn't want us to suffer the same fate as those once human civilians and he charged at the large horde rising from the graves in the graveyard. He made it out, but he wasn't going to make it; he was bit and scratched all over. He was scared about turning into one of them, but we helped him. It was the most toughest thing our group had to do, and one of the saddest. I'll never forget him." - Unnamed French Soldier, 17th of October, 1813.

The Organist refused to join us, so he was left behind in the church.

Salvation lies across the river

Ah yes, the second you step out, you get blown into pieces or tackled further into the darkness, never to be seen again. That's why we embrace the C H U R C H

one game someone talked about the bible in the church (some verses) and we had to wait for him to finish

"The blight followed us here. I thought we left it behind in paris. It appears I was wrong. All it took is a single day for the dead to take over this once beautiful city. On the way to Leipzig our brigade found more soldiers, once enemies, left behind by their leaders who withdrawed troops as soon as this... putrid epidemic broke out. In our favor, we have decided to go east, giving us a chance to meet once again. I pray for your wellbeing. As of now we're stranded in a church, planning an escape route. For all we know, salvation lies across the river" A letter from Igor Łużycki, an infantryman of the 1e legion de la Vistule Grenadiers, to his wife, Kalina. Whether or not he has lived long enough to arrive at his home is unknown. He was last seen by his comrades, a few days after their successful attempt to escape Leipzig, mounting a horse en route to his hometown.

" Our men are waiting inside the church, as all of them reload their muskets, blunderbusses, and flintlocks. Our fifer's fife has broke due to him getting mauled, yet survived. Our sapper's injured, and everyone's face is melancholy. I, as a captain of this army, have rushed out and have taken care of the blight. Our men will proceed through Leipzig, in hopes to find a rescue. To anyone who sees this, I wish you good luck and find one of our men. " - Vikstan-Berminton-Charles-de-la Garde III The note is inside a grave, half of it can be seen, as half of it has been presumably dug.

"Peace in the inside , Demons on the outside.."

I think ill never be tired of Gb

For the people who got confused by this quote Salvation lies beneath the river it about our route to reach the river and that salvation is Jacob who accidentally blew himself up to get us to safety

"That church was our only way of shelter, yet, we had to escape. We lost so many of our men because of those demons." -Louise Vanders, 1813 (this is a fictional quote from my character in the world of G&BP) edit: oh wow

it all feels empty and ominous when the place gets left alone

"We will have a better chance to survive if we worked together - Maximus (From Gladiator)

Damn.... this feels sad 😢 even no lore and anything, just the music makes us sad about how the city people suffering from the plague

The soldier from the guy who got too laggy and his game crashed listening to this masterpiece:

YES YES YES!!! I AM SO HAPPY TO HEAR THIS SONG HOLY SH**

We lost many of our men We saw the world get destroyed We saw the undead destroy our world But Salvation lies across the river

This sounds like something that would play when I’ve lost it all
