Flawed Legacy

Flawed Legacy is the seventh track in Halo 2: Original Soundtrack, Volume 1.

Overiew
The track begins with a chorus and a slow beat of maracas. After a dozen or so seconds (around 0:16 seconds), an electric bass enters with elements of Perchance to Dream from Halo: Original Soundtrack. Then, at around 0:32 seconds, an irregular drum beat mixes in and remains for the rest of the piece. The chorus and electric sound dies off, but the drumming continues until the end.

Appearances
This track plays in the level The Arbiter, when Thel 'Vadamee and the Covenant enter a room bisected by two Forerunner gas canister conveyors in the Threshold gas mine. It also plays during the Halo Legends episode Odd One Out, when John-117, Cortana, and Jacob Keyes discuss SPARTAN-1337's capabilities.

Arrangements
The piece was arranged into the first part of Cracked Legend in the Halo 2: Anniversary Original Soundtrack.
