The beginning of the song is based mainly on choir and strings. It is similar to the song [[In Amber Clad (Song)|In Amber Clad]] from Halo 2. At around 0:40, drums become the dominant instrument. Later on, the melody is taken over by strings again, playing the Arbiter's theme. After that, a section from the songs, [[Out of Shadow]] and the Halo 3 version of [[Perilous Journey]], Make Them Pay will play.

The name of the song is most likely in reference to [[The Ark|the Ark]], which could be considered the "farthest outpost" of the [[Forerunners]].
