Den røde tråden på tekstsiden er grådighet, her er denne spesifikke delen av konseptalbumet forklart av vokalist Ashley: «In the story, Granted Indulgence is the point at which our three men take to the woods in search of Death. A right horrible git, who has taken the lives of men, women and children in their village. Instead of finding Death in the deep dark woods, they find a sea of treasure. It is at this point, the three men, so overwhelmed at this life changing find, they begin to conspire against one another.»

Koselig. Og her er litt rundt storyen for hele skiva: 

«Conceptually, the new album is an in-depth exploration into The Pardoner, English poet Geoffrey Chaucer’s most depraved and deceitful character from The Canterbury Tales. The Pardoner is a religious fraud and hypocrite who preaches against the love of greed, yet whose own love of wealth enabled him to profit off the sins of others. He claimed to work on behalf of the clergy, selling spiritual forgiveness for one’s sins in the form of his pardons, which included forged official letters from high ranking church officials absolving one of their sins and bones and crystals blessed with healing powers. In Chaucer’s story, The Pardoner tells a harrowing tale of three men whose materialism becomes the death of them.»
