'''In Amber Clad''' is twelfth track in ''[[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack|Halo 2: Original Soundtrack, Volume 1]]''.
 
==Overview==
The piece begins with a violin section until, at around 0:14, when other instruments join in. Then, at about 0:29, a drum sets in with an electric guitar, which plays the melody from the ''[[Lost Muse]]'' (a piece of music in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' which was missing from ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]''). This continues on until approximately 1:23, except the guitar continues on and finishes the piece.


It is featured in the ''[[Halo 2]]'' campaign gameplay during the level [[Delta Halo (level)|Delta Halo]] in the chapter ''"Off The Rock, Through The Bush, Nothing But [[Jackal]]"''.
The piece is a spiritual sequel to ''[[Under Cover of Night]]'' from ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]'', featuring similar instruments and melody for its strings part.


The song starts off with a violin section until, at around 0:14, when much of the band begins to mix in. Then, at about 0:29, a drum sets in with a guitar. This continues on until approximately 1:23, except the guitar continues on and finishes the piece.
==Appearances==
This song has a similar melody to [[Under Cover of Night]].
A percussion-only version plays in the ''[[Halo 2]]'' campaign level ''[[Delta Halo]]'', when [[John-117]] commandeers a [[M12 Warthog]] after clearing the landing zone. The full version of the track plays later in the level during the chapter "Off The Rock, Through The Bush, Nothing But [[Kig-yar|Jackal]]".  


It's also been noted that this song bears some similarities to [[Roll Call]], [[Follow Our Brothers]] and [[Farthest Outpost]] from the [[Halo 3 Original Soundtrack]]. These are partial remakes, since they only resemble small sections of the original song.
==Arrangements==
It is arranged into the following:
*The percussion in ''Underestimated'' (from ''[[To Kill a Demon]]'') and ''[[Farthest Outpost]]'' in ''[[Halo 3: Original Soundtrack]]''.
*The bass line of ''Duty Bound'' from ''[[Roll Call]]'' in ''Halo 3: Original Soundtrack''.
*''[[Trapped In Amber]]'' of ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary Original Soundtrack]]''.
