your work is always pretty astonishing, amazing stuff as always. the orchestral textures are really top notch, and i love that you mixed some synth-y stuff in as well, especially in the first track. it's so cinematic, fire stuff!

Open Sky - So spacey! I love it! Long drones and sprawling sound make a really cool image.
Shooting Stars - Really cool, this feels pretty climactic, but also chill? It's a weird dichotomy you found, but it works real well!
The Cycle Repeats - Love the campfire SFX! Again, very spacey, but it really works in this context.
Summer Stargazing - Yeah, this is definitely an ending track, I love it a lot, really cool soundscapes here.
Nice job!!
The tone is beautiful, with the added context of what you're going through (I'm sorry about your loss), this really does feel like a farewell. I can tell you were emotionally charged throughout the project, and that's a good thing.
I will say the only thing I wonder about is the attachment to the theme, I can't really grasp how it connects, I suppose the melancholic vibe does fit, but perhaps more integration with the setting?
Regardless, really nice work!!
OOH, the vibe!! I love it!
Road Trip is fun! The drums are slightly too high end for my liking, but that's a personal preference thing, the synthwave is a blast.
By the Fire is cool too, I love the campfire! No real complaints.
Campsite Defense Squad is really cool too, I found the noise at the beginning a bit too loud and grainy, but the vibe is so cool.
Other notes is the length, I could do with a little more, but that's cuz I love it so much.
Nice work!!!
I love your interpretation of the theme! I'm gonna break down how I feel about each track.
Gathering The Town - This one is really cool, I love the upbeat vibe, and there's a lot of really cool moving parts. The only thing I have a small gripe with is the ending, I feel like it could've ended stronger, and the silence at the ned makes me think it wasn't intended to loop, which is okay, but if it doesn't loop, the ending could be built up a bit more. However, the VST's and composition is top-notch, really good stuff!
Where People Used To Be - This one is epic, I love your push and pull with the intense instrumentation and drums, the piano is also really jumpy and jovial, this one is definitely my fav of the two. Using water-esque sounds (which I can't tell if they're live recordings or synthesized, which is a good thing!) was a good touch, I did the same thing, but you executed it really well with the ending!
Overall, really nice work!!
