==Overview==
[[Category:Halo 4 OST]]
The track opens with a theremin and synth effects before strings enter with a suspenseful melody, joined by female vocals, horns, and twinkling effects. The cascading melody builds up to a grand climax, with the different instruments cascading over each other, then fades out.
 
== Appearances ==
The track can be heard:
* In the campaign level ''[[Requiem (level)|Requiem]]'', when [[John-117]] enters the Terminus in "[[Control]]".
* In the campaign level ''[[Reclaimer (level)|Reclaimer]]'', when the [[Librarian]] recounts the [[Human-Forerunner wars]].
* In the second [[Terminal (Halo 4)|terminal]], when [[Forthencho]] orders the death of all the [[Forerunner]]s of a planet to prevent the spread of the [[Flood]] infection.
* In the opening cinematic of the ''[[Spartan Ops]]'' episode ''[[S1/Invasion|Invasion]]'', when [[Catherine Halsey]] has taken control of [[Roland (AI)|Roland]] and discovers John-117 is alive.
 
==Production notes==
The track was inspired by the [[Forerunner]] structures in [[Requiem]], shown to composer Neil Davidge by [[343 Industries]] during their first meeting in December, 2010. Davidge noted that the track pays homage to various science fiction musical scores, including [[Wikipedia:Blade Runner (soundtrack)|the ''Blade Runner'' soundtrack]] by [[Wikipedia:Vangelis|Vangelis]] and [[Wikipedia:The Day the Earth Stood Still (soundtrack)|the soundtracks for ''The Day the Earth Stood Still'']].{{Ref/Site|Id=commentary|URL=https://www.gamereactor.eu/halo-4s-composer-commentary/|Site=Gamereactor|Page=Halo 4's Composer Commentary|D=12|M=11|Y=2021}}
