"Deus Ex Machina at a Young Age" is one of many Morpho Knight themes introduced in Kirby Star Allies, corresponding to Susie's battle with the fluttering fiend. It was composed by Hirokazu Ando, and features all four of the themes he composed for the battle with Star Dream in Kirby: Planet Robobot.
Composition
The theme opens with the "Bright Spinning Planet" portion of "Vagrant Counting Song of Retrospection" from the intro, quickly growing in intensity and almost immediately doubling in speed. The part based on "Haltmann Works Co. HQ" plays twice, followed by an abrupt switch to "Soul 0 System" with traces of the Vagrant Counting Song still just barely audible. After a few beats, the song once again makes a sudden and unnatural shift into "Vagrant Keepsake of Oblivion", akin to a similar movement during the fight with Star Dream Soul OS.
The entire "Haltmann Works Co. HQ" part of this song plays out, and while the last note is held, the motif shared between "VS. Star Dream" and "Fatal Error" plays. This takes over entirely, through this rendition of "Haltmann Works Co. HQ" and on into the double "Kirby's Triumphant Return" portion of "Havoc Aboard the Halberd", also taken from "VS. Star Dream". It briefly returns to the motif shared with "Fatal Error" before returning to "The Noble Haltmann" and "Kirby's Triumphant Return", this time in its original form and resolving into the second section of "Green Greens". "Soul 0 System" returns with the double-time "Bright Spinning Planet" of the Vagrant Counting Song, and then the track loops back into the "Haltmann Works Co. HQ" of the Vagrant Counting Song.
