We wanted this music to plunge the player in the mood of light sorrow. How do you think, does it fit the intention?

It sounds really cool! I love the mood and atmosphere created here. Personally, the vocals got a bit too much for me but that's most likely just personal taste. Because the musical ideas and chord progressions are excellent. The only part that I don't quite get is your phrase "mood of light sorrow." This feels more excited, epic and perhaps even more of a call to arms than sorrow. Maybe it's just a misuse of the word but that's not the vibe I'm getting at all. It feels more actiony - like the soundtrack to Gladiator.
Also around the 2:43 mark it sounds like the compressor is really getting slammed. It's either that or a synth like sound that has some distortion on it. Or perhaps a bit of both? Regardless, at that section the audio starts to feel much more squashed and over compressed. The rest of the mix and song is fantastic!
Thanks for sharing!
