Uh. So I guess this technically isn't @jackredfieldwasmyjacob 's Idhun Musical but I've really wanted to share this for a while and it is from Falsettos which is a musical so anyways.

This is based on a fic-verse called Bidhun where Jack and Kirtash are in love with each other. This takes place when Victoria had already woken up but was still very weak. Anyways enjoy. (Ima post the last one later cause Tumblr only let's me post 10 lmao)

RECAP OF MEMORIAS DE IDHUN & CHARACTERS

Before starting with the songs, I wanted to do this post so you see a bit of the synopsis of the story and main characters!! Before starting, of course there’ll be spoilers here, but honestly, the books have been out for at least 15 years, it’s kinda like giving Harry Potter spoilers at this point.

SYNOPSIS:

Before starting, keep in mind I haven’t read this books in about 8 years so some details are a bit hazy. 

But basically, Idhún is this wonderful fantasy world with a lot of races and creatures that I’ll talk about after with the characters and stuff, but, in a nutshell, the three most important and key for the story are three: sheks (winged snakes), dragons and unicorns. So, there’s this evil dude called Ashran the Nigromant who is a really powerful mage and the leader of the sheks (in reality he’s the Seventh, the god of the sheks, in the body of Ashran but we don’t discover this until the end of book 2) and in a day called the Astral Conjugation when magic is more powerful, he summons a really powerful spell to wipe out all dragons (they are the mortal enemies of the sheks) and unicorns (they give the gift of magic, so Ashran wants to weed out any potential powerful mages like him). While this is happening, two dudes, namely Alsan and Shail, are able to save a baby dragon and a baby unicorn and through a portal they travel to a safe place, the Earth. But something happens on their way, and the souls of the dragon and the unicorn get inside some newborns, Jack and Victoria. When notice of this happens, Ashran sends his son, Kirtash, who is half-human, half-shek, to trace and kill them (they don’t know the dragon and the unicorn are in human bodies, though). 

I’ll go in more detail with the story and stuff whenever we get into the songs per se, but that’s the general premise of the first book :)

Here is a map of Idhún btw, all second and third books take place here! I used to have memorized it perfectly, I think my love for geography started with this map:

Let’s move on to the characters, I’ll only talk about the ones mentioned in the “We Are From Idhún” song, I think those are the main ones:

JACK REDFIELD

My boy. You can guess from the name of my blog he was my favourite character haha. He’s the last Dragon, so half-human half-dragon, and he’s like your prototype of hero, brave, strong, etc. I wanted to be him growing up, and he had a flaming sword which was really cool. He also could transform into a dragon.

VICTORIA D’ASCOLLI

She was my first crush look at her. Also, SHE LIVED IN MADRID! I was so happy to live in the same city as her, you have no idea. Well, she is the last Unicorn, so she’s half-human half-unicorn. She lived with her grandma Allegra D’Ascolli, that was later revealed to be Aile Alhenai, a really powerful fairy mage. She is also your typical protagonist; strong-willed, a really powerful healer, and also very brave, although it’s true she suffered of the “heroine complex” and the “love interest complex” a bit.

KIRTASH / CHRISTIAN / CHRIS TARA

The emo boi. He has three names cause Kirtash is his idhunite name, Christian his Earth name, and Chris Tara his singer name. Yup. This guy was a singer. He is the Edward to the Jacob, the Draco to the Harry. You know the drill. Jack and him hate each other but love Victoria, so yeah. He is really angsty, he can transform into a shek and has a sword made of ice. I used to hate him a lot when I was a kid for some reason, but he is probably the most interesting character in the saga.

SHAIL FESBAK

After Jack, he was my favourite character. He is a human mage that saved the last unicorn, Lunnaris, then Victoria. He is really intelligent and calmed, he seems to have everything under control, but at the beginning of s2 he’ll lose a leg, and he’ll try to balance his life again, with the help of his love interest, Zaisei.

ALSAN OF VANISSAR:

He is the king of the kingdom of Vanissar, a consummated and stern warrior. He saved the last dragon, Yandrak, later Jack, and he is a really powerful and natural leader. In the beginning of the second book he gets turned into a werewolf, so he starts to change, not only physically but also mentally, to the point that he becomes kind of a villain in the third book.

ZAISEI:

So, Zaisei is a Celestian, a race that looks... well, just like her. They are my favourite race, they live in Celestia and are really peaceful. They raise big birds that are use for transport that I don’t remember how they were called, it was like Hei-Hei or something like that. Also, they are incapable of lying and can see inside people’s hearts. Zaisei is a priestess to the Celestian god, Yohavir (I think it was him???) and she’s your prototypical Celestian, really kind-hearted and just alright good. As I said, she is Shail’s love interested and honestly, they are the cutest couple of the books.

KIMARA:

Kimara is a semiyan, the yans are the people who live in the desert of Awinor, and are just like her, but shorter and usually with a lot of clothes that make only their eyes, always red, show. Kimara is feisty, fierce and determined, and she is the first person Victoria turns into a mage, so she is still learning. She also develops a really big crush on Jack, and is not a very big fan of Kirtash.

GERDE:

Gerde is kinda what Kimara is to Jack, but to Kirtash. She is a fairy as you can see, and she is the right hand of Ashran. She has a crush on Kirtash, and is really provocative and seductive, she is also a compulsive liar and really mischievous. She becomes the main antagonist in the third book, when the Seventh god enters her body after Ashran’s defeat.

And those are the main characters! That was a lot, I’ll try to post something else today!

BOOK 1 SONG 4 - I’LL BE STRONGER (JACK)

Here is last song, “The Story of My Life”

Aaaaand... back to Jack and nonsense.

[CHORUS]

I’ll be stronger

Now I’m not.

Cause I’ll be stronger

Do you know?

I’ll be better

Than now. Cause I’m

Going to train till

I’m fed up.

[chorus]

My sword is the

best. I’ll kill a shek

I’ll defeat it all. I’ll

be the best!!!

[chorus]

Nobody could defeat me!

So yeah, this is basically the training montage song. After Jack calms down, he starts training under Alsan cause he wants to help the Resistance to defeat sheks and szishs (reptile-like people).

[al-mayriti]

I may or may not have already talked about this here, but when I was about 11, I was totally obsessed with this Spanish book trilogy called Memorias De Idhún. So much, that I still have a notebook full of 64 songs I wrote for hypothetical Memorias de Idhún musicals (I don’t know either what I was thinking about). And, even though English is not my first language, for some reason I decided to write them in English. So they are full of broken English, and they are so bad they are hilarious.

So anyway, I was thinking of writing them here for meme material and laughs, what do you think?? I’ll probably have to make a tag for them also, I was thinking something along “mdimusical” or something like that.

Please let me know what you think!!!

Note that the three songs in bold (Beyond, Why You?, and Cold) are songs that were in the books, all sung by Christ Tara, who is the same person as Christian and Kirtash. It’s complicated. I’m still gonna put the lyrics here for continuity’s sake, but keep in mind those were written by the books author, Laura Gallego García. Also, fun fact about myself, I learned by heart all three songs and sung to myself or my family. I usually started crying after singing “Why You?”, my favourite of the three, because it reminded me of my crush at that time. Oh, the good ol days.

Please, if you do all the figuring out the story stuff please let me know, I’m really curious to see what you come up with!!! And let me know also if any of the song titles piqued your interest!!! 

Next post is gonna be of pictures of the characters as they appear in the official comic books (that I of course have) so you can imagine them properly.

WE ARE FROM IDHÚN

Oh boi, here we go. This song got kinda popular in my primary class, and some girls even learnt it and sang it in the playground. It was something else.

In a nutshell, this is just an introduction to all of the main characters of the books, so it’ll help those of you who don’t know what the hell they are about, although my 11-year-old self wasn’t really a master with words, to say the least, and specially with English, but alas, here we go. 

I present you, “We Are From Idhún”, sung by literally everybody:

[Chorus]

We are from Idhún,

We are from Idhún,

We are from Idhún,

And we are going to present us.

[Everyone I guess]

In Idhún, there are 

winged snakes, unicorns and

dragons. People can see 

in our hearts and live

in deserts too.

[Chorus]

Hello, I’m Jack, I’m

a dragon and I have

save Idhún too.

[Chorus]

Hello, I’m Kirtash,

I’m a winged snake,

I have killed people

but save it too. (?????)

[Chorus]

Hello, I’m Shail, I’m a

wizard and I have find

the last unicorn.

[Chorus]

Hello, Alsan is

my name. I have find

the last dragon and I’m

an errant king. (I love how I “Englishified” Spanish words)

[Chorus]

[Everybody]

In Idhún, there are

six gods and eleven

countries too.

[Chorus]

I’m Victoria, and I’m a

unicorn and I have two

loves.

[Chorus]

Hello, I’m Zaisei and I’m

a sacerdotist priest. I have blue

skin, and I can see your

hearts.

[Chorus]

Hi, Kimara is my name.

I’m a semiyan, and I’m

a wizard too.

[Chorus]

Gerde is my name,

I’m a fairy. I was

bad but now no. (wtf she’s the bad guy)

[Chorus]

We’re from Idhún!

And we’re Jack, Kirtash,

Shail, Alsan, Victoria,

Zaisei, Kimara and Gerde.

We’re from Idhún!

How long was this song supposed to be holy shit. And like, I invented exposition my god. This would have been a pretty boring song if it had ever come to life tbh. 

But I guess it was catchy????? Nevermind, I hope you liked it!. I’ll try to make them like this, as truthful to what’s on the notebook as I can.

[al-mayriti]

So, I’m gonna start those Memorias de Idhún songs I talked about the other day. But first, let me show you the actual notebook I wrote them on, along with my childish 11 year old handwrite (now I write in cursive so yeah, big change).

Oh, and as I couldn’t think of anything better, the tag for these posts are gonna be “mdimusical”. I’ll soon make a link for it in the tags of my blog.

BOOK 1 SONG 3 - THE STORY OF MY LIFE (VICTORIA)

Here is last song, “Help Me!”

Also known as exposition™ the song, my god. Anyways, finally we have a Victoria song, yay!!! Here are the lyrics:

[CHORUS]

This is the story of my

poor life, the story 

of a girl that wants

to fly. And she can’t.

My parents were death.

I was in an orfanat, [I meant “orphanage”, I “englishified” the Spanish word cause I didn’t know the word in English]

alone.

[chorus]

Allegra D’Ascolli wants me

to stay with her. They 

said yes, cause I have

magic powers and they

thought that I was a witch.

[chorus]

Now I’m with her,

And she’s my grandmother,

But my family is death.

[chorus]

Loving that “but my family is death” at the end, Victoria, great way to lighten up the mood. Anyways, after Jack’s frenzy song, he would greet Victoria, and she would sing this song as a means to explain who she is. I honestly didn’t remember they thought she was a witch in her orphanage, huh. Anyways, apart from that, she is in Limbhad cause Shail is teaching her magic, although I don’t know how did she meet Shail and Alsan in the first place. Basically, she is another member of the Resistance.
