A sequence of ornate, dreamlike instrumentals sets the scene for Caraval’s shifting illusions, while the vocal half turns toward Scarlett’s longing, Tella’s daring, and the sisters’ bond under pressure. The mood moves between enchantment, menace, romance, and release, like a game whose stakes become increasingly personal.
