The album's plot follows the title character (performed by Cowan) after she wakes up with no memory and with the ability to heal people with the touch of her bare hands, though that comes at the gradual cost of her own strength. As the story progresses, she meets people willing to help her, use her powers or hunt her.[2][3]
The album has been released on CD, color vinyl and digital formats.[3] On 25 January 2021, a video for "Into the Unknown" was released.[2][3]
