High Charity Suite is the tenth track on Halo 2: Original Soundtrack, Volume 2. It is composed of Rue and Woe (0:00-1:30), Respite (1:30-3:47), Antediluvia (3:47-6:09) and Pursuit of Truth (6:09-8:29).

Two fragments of this track appear in the Halo 3: Original Soundtrack. The piece heard from the beginning to 1:31, Rue and Woe, is remade in "Black Tower/Heroes Also Fall", is played when Miranda Keyes is killed, and the part heard from 1:38 to 3:45, Respite, is re-used in the piece Tribute.

In Halo 2, Rue and Woe is played during the Quarantine Zone campaign level, when you link up with Rtas 'Vadumee after exiting the crashed Sentinel Constructor Factory, and Respite is played during the cutscene that opens the Shooting Gallery section of the Quarantine Zone level. Later, it can be heard on the level High Charity. Pursuit of Truth is played in the level High Charity, near the area where the Yanme'e are fighting the Flood Combat Forms.
