Artist commentary:

Ashley Jones: (composer, booklet commentary)

I find that a lot of my Homestuck tracks tend to be medleys: One of my first ideas for a track was the Gamzee vs. Dave rap battle with all their motifs as a backdrop (that never really picked off because UGH, LACK OF VOCAL TALENT ON MY PART). This one follows a similar vein; Her Imperious Condescension vs. Lord English's Handmaid. I wanted the track to show how tired of life the Handmaid had become, so a lot of her motifs get cut short quite abrasively by HIC's "attacks", as it were. She puts up a little bit of a struggle sometimes, but eventually she just accepts her fate and lets herself be replaced. So ends the tragic life of the Alternian Ancestors.

Brad Griffin: (booklet editor, booklet commentary)

All of scarodactyl's art was actually slightly smaller than the resolution I used for this booklet. Hopefully upscaling it didn't ruin the pixels too much.
