It's a cool idea to have basically just one long piece that covers most of the story and you execute that very nicely. Like Jofes also mentioned, the proportions feel off with "The Fire Slowly Dying" taking up so much more time than the other tracks and the flute runs in "The Fight" make me think more of fleeing rather than standing your ground. In "Taking the Night Ferry" and "End of Demo" I hear your Uematsu influences most clearly. Those are tracks that would very much fit a game in the style of Final Fantasy 9.
