When asked for her commentary on the content of the album, Von Hauswolff provided this quote from Swedish author Walter Ljungquist. "Take a human death, a thin, pathetic outer contour that encloses a great, unknown silence. It is in that silence, in an unknown, just imagine the center as the legend grows. Ah yes! Therefore, there are no legends in our time. Our time is a time without silence and secrets, and without it there are no living legends."
