Album information

The limited edition of this album comes in a digibook, with an expanded booklet. There was some speculation of a video for the song "The Ancient Forest of Elves" to be included as a hidden feature in the disc, but with the CD's release was proven to be nothing more than rumor.

Track 11 is unlisted on any form of the album. It is an a cappella rendition of a traditional Icelandic song by soprano Rannveig Sif Sigurdardottir. Sometimes the track is referred to by her name, or as "Lullaby", but the real name of this song is "Sofðu unga ástin mín" ("Sleep my little loved one")
