''Rue and Woe'' (1:30) features high strings playing a somber melody, joined by low strings, then both crescendo into conclusion. It plays during the level ''[[Quarantine Zone (level)|Quarantine Zone]]'', when [[Thel Vadam]]ee links up with [[Rtas 'Vadum]]ee after exiting the crashed [[Sentinel manufacturing facility]]. It also plays in the level ''[[The Great Journey]]'', when Thel Vadam confronts [[Tartarus]] in the [[control room]] of [[Installation 05]]. The piece was reorchestrated into ''Heroes Also Fall'' from ''[[Black Tower]]'' in ''[[Halo 3: Original Soundtrack]]'', and then into ''[[Unwearied Heart]]'' in ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary Original Soundtrack]]''.

''Respite'' (2:17) features soft ambiance, quickly joined by low strings. It repeats in different variations until fading out. It plays in the level ''Quarantine Zone'', during the cutscene in which 'Vadam and 'Vadum board the [[anti-gravity gondola]] leading to the [[Library]]. The piece reprises in ''Road to Voi'' from ''[[Epilogue (Halo 2)|Epilogue]]''. The piece was reorchestrated into:

''Antediluvia'' (2:22) begins with a short reprise of ''Wage'' from ''[[Delta Halo Suite]]'', ending before the percussion changes to high tempo. Instead, it transitions into the digital notes from ''Veins of Stone'' in ''[[Sacred Icon Suite]]'' followed by a brief heavy percussion beat. The digital notes continue with shakers, and high vocals fade in eerily to end the first part of this section. This plays during the ending cutscene of the level ''[[Gravemind (level)|Gravemind]]'', in which [[Miranda Keyes]] and [[Avery Johnson]] were escorted as prisoners into [[Type-52 Phantom]]s, and [[Prophet of Mercy]] was killed by a [[Flood]] [[Pod infector]]. The second section begins with high female vocals and high strings from ''[[High Charity (music)|High Charity]]'', but soon joined by soft timpani drums. They play in a smooth ambiance before a soft drumroll transition into the next section. This plays in the opening cutscene of the level ''[[High Charity (level)|High Charity]]'', when [[Cortana]] and [[John-117]] discusses the plan to stop the [[Prophet of Truth]].

''Pursuit of Truth'' (2:18) fades in with two-part of digital notes, soon joined by high female vocals singing the melody. High strings join in to echo the melody, and percussion enter to mix in with the digital note. The vocals and strings fade out. After a duet between the two-part digital notes and metallic percussive beats, the female vocals return as the percussion switches to heavier percussive beat. Cymbals enter To complement the percussive beats, and the highs strings return to conclude the piece. It plays in the beginning of the level ''High Charity'', and the name alludes to John-117 pursuing the Prophet of Truth over the course of the level. The piece was reorchestrated into ''[[Charity's Irony]]'' in ''Halo 2: Anniversary Original Soundtrack''.

==Trivia==

*The melody of ''Pursuit of Truth'' is heavily based on [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kd9xS7dwmjM ''Leela'' theme] composed and performed by [[Alexander Seropian]] from the first ''[[Marathon]]'' game.
