This playlist moves from the ominous grandeur of a besieged city to the close, vulnerable ache of Maris and Luca’s separation. Classical, cinematic, and atmospheric instrumentals evoke Isara’s ancient-inspired world and the violence gathering around it; the vocal songs turn toward lost freedom, loyalty, love, and defiance of fate.
