From the hauntingly beautiful "Goodbye" to the hopeful "Sunrise," and the dramatic "The Hunt," each track is a chapter in this synesthetic essay, painting vivid images with sound.
The album opens with "Main Theme Version, Pt. 1" and closes with "End Credits," bookending a collection of pieces that range from the ethereal "Water" to the intense "Passion."
