"The Hills of Tanchico" is a folk-inspired ballad performed live by three of the main cast members in Episode 6 of The Wheel of Time. Rooted in the show's worldbuilding, the piece carries emotional weight and narrative depth, serving as a character transformation moment and the end credits track.

Since it's release, it has taken fantasy fans by storm, with publications like Collider, Vulture and IGN calling it this show's "Toss A Coin To Your Witcher", as well as fans making merch based on the song and performing singalongs at various fantasy conventions.
