'''More Than His Share''' is the third track (Disc 1 Track 3) in ''[[Halo 3: ODST Original Soundtrack]]'', and plays in the ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' campaign level ''[[Tayari Plaza]]''. It is composed of ''Into the Breach'' (0:00-3:14), ''Become the Hunted'' (3:14-5:08), and ''Lost and Unfound'' (5:08-5:46).
'''More Than His Share''' is a track from the [[Halo 3: ODST Original Soundtrack]].<ref>[http://www.amazon.com/Original-Soundtrack-Martin-Michael-Salvatori/dp/B002LBGBOK/ Amazon.com]</ref>
It contains the tracks ''Into the Breach'', ''Become the Hunted'', and ''Lost and Unfound''.


==Overview==
The track takes place in the first flashback, [[Tayari Plaza (level)|Tayari Plaza]]. The title probably refers to Edward Buck, who has seen 25 years in service to the [[UNSC]], and more than his share of war.
===Into the Breach===
''Into the Breach'' (3:14) begins with percussive beats, later joined by a bass. Strings enter in accompaniment, taking center stage until a lone female vocal suddenly joins in as an echo. The piece pauses with ambiance and digital chimes before the percussion and bass fade back in for an ending with high string notes. It is a heavily inspired by the track ''[[The Gun Pointed at the Head of the Universe]]'' (from ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]'').{{verify}} The piece first plays in full during the opening gameplay segment of the level. The percussion-only version plays after [[Edward Buck]] meets two Marines in [[New Mombasa Sector 6]] after defeating the initial group of Covenant. The bass-only version plays when Buck approaches a [[Covenant watchtower]] supported by [[Unggoy]] and [[Kig-Yar]].


===Become the Hunted===
This song is largely influenced by songs of the Halo trilogy. The initial part of the song, ''Into the Breach'', is a direct remix of ''[[The Gun Pointed at the Head of the Universe]]'', from the [[Halo: Original Soundtrack]] and the second part, ''Become the Hunted'', is a heavily remixed version of the ''Arbiter's Theme'' from [[Halo 2]].
''Become the Hunted'' (1:54) features heavy percussion with digital chimes in the background, soon joined by bass playing a fast melody. Male vocals sing the main melody from the piece ''Weight of Failure'' from (''[[Prologue (music)|Prologue]]'' in ''[[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack]]''), followed by variations. The piece ends abruptly with the percussion. A version with muted percussion plays later in ''All That Remains'' (from the later track ''[[The Light at the End]]''). The piece plays when Buck enters [[New Mombasa Sector 8]], where he encounters a large group of Covenant, including [[Kig-Yar Sniper]]s and a pair of [[Mgalekgolo]].


===Lost and Unfound===
==Sources==
''Lost and Unfound'' (0:38) is ambiance with low strings and digital chimes. It plays in the ending cutscene of the level, when Buck meets up with [[Kojo Agu|Romeo]].

==Production notes==
{{Halo Music}}
* The name ''More Than His Share'' refers to Buck, who has seen 25 years in service to the [[UNSC]], and more than his share of war.
[[Category:Halo 3: ODST OST]]
* The name ''Becomes the Hunted'' is derived from the phrase "the hunter has become the hunted", and alludes to Buck's encounter with Mgalekgolo in the gameplay section the piece plays in.
* The name ''Lost and Unfound'' is a play on the phrase "Lost and Found", which appeared in the ending cutscene of the level when [[Superintendent]] scans [[Veronica Dare]]'s discarded helmet. The name likely alludes to both Dare missing from her pod and her helmet being lost in the Huragok's explosion. In both cases, they were "lost" until Rookie found them after he woke up.
