'''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).

==Overview==
===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 singing a leitmotif melody from the track ''Replacement'' (from the earlier track ''[[Overture (Halo 3: ODST)|Overture]]''), itself being a variation of ''[[Heavy Price Paid]]''{{'}}s leitmotif from ''[[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack]]''. The piece pauses with ambiance and digital chimes before the percussion and bass fade back in for an ending with high string notes. 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===
''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===
''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==
* 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.
* 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.
* The appearance of the ''[[Heavy Price Paid]]'' leitmotif in ''Into the Breach'' may be a reference to how [[Buck]] encounters dead [[Sangheili]], the same way [[Thel 'Vadam]] encounters them in the [[Halo 2]] level [[Uprising]] at the onset of the [[Great Schism|Great Schism]], where ''Heavy Price Paid'' first appears.
