Loosely based on shogunate Japan, Inazuma is a nation of thunder and lighting, falling petals and lapping waves, wandering samurai and secretive miko—a place where a mortal might meet the strike of a god. “Duel in the Mist” is one of three battle themes that play as you explore this isolated archipelago. Originally composed by Chinese composer Yu-Peng Chen for a traditional Japanese ensemble of shamisen, koto, shakuhachi, and taiko, it is here reimagined as a duel between two classical flutes against a percussive backdrop featuring koto and Korean buk drums. Whether facing kairagi or a single dendro slime, these sick trap beats and dank drops will surely raise your anxiety levels... because all you wanted to do was talk to an NPC.
