MERIDAS VILLAIN SONG - Touch the Sky | ANIMATIC | Brave cover by Lydia the Bard
Hello! Welcome to this weeks instalment of Disney characters as Villains! This will be the last one for a little while so I really hope you enjoy Merida's Villain Song!
BIGGEST THANK YOU to the wonderfully talented individuals that have helped bring this project to life for the INCREDIBLE and CHILLING animatic, Merida honestly scares me a little bit now, and to For your BEAUTIFUL and HAUNTING composition, you're amazing. You guys should definitely go check them out!
Now, for a little context, heres the story for this alternate universe and villainous Merida.
STORY
We begin at the end of Merida’s story. But with a small change… what would have happened if Merida reached her mother a few seconds later? After all that work and all the suffering they’d endured, they couldn’t save eachother. In turn sealing both their fates…
As Merida reaches her mother the sun rises and Queen Elinor is turned into a bear permanently. But without any of her previous memories she is scared and doesn't recognise Merida, and so does what any bear would do, she attacks the perceived threat. Merida tries to defend herself but in the confusion is caught by her mothers claws across her face. The fight continues and it becomes clear very quickly that this is not one Merida will win. The clans scramble unsure of what to do but Merida’s life is in danger and so her father does what any caring parent would do and neutralises the threat. Merida is left weeping and lost as she holds her mothers dying body. her father tries to explain that he had no other choice but to kill the bear and imprison its cubs, but Merida is inconsolable.
Following this the clans call for a return to tradition, saying that to separate ourselves from decades of law is dangerous, as Merida herself has demonstrated. It was what the queen wanted. Merida’s father agrees to the law, keen to return to tradition in the hope that it would keep them safe as it always has and as a way of honouring his wife's memory. Merida must marry.
Merida is furious, to have gone to the lengths that she had and to have sacrificed so much only to end up back where she started. Whilst also grieving the loss of her mother, there’s only so far she could be pushed before the laws and traditions sent her past the brink. She had tried to empathise, tried to lead her people down a better path and they’d given her nothing but false promises back. Then they killed her mother. Her Father had killed her Mother.
Merida feels suffocated, her mind running round in circles, replaying the events of the last few days. Her mind is screaming at her to do something, to bring her mother back? Not possible. To go to the witch for another spell? Because that worked so well last time. But there was one thing, one thing she could do that would mean lasting change and would bring justice for her mothers death. Justice for all the people that had been oppressed under this patriarchal regime. If she did nothing, who was to say that this wouldn't just continue happening to those that came after her? Forced into a life they didn't want, but with no power to make change? And so Merida leaves to destroy the old ways for good.
