In Response To: Re: What Retcon? (scarab) : They could have been there. : It will take a couple of days for me to get First Strike. What was it that
First Strike: p198 "It was an automated mail system that could carry messages from the center of the Covenant Empire to the outer reaches of the galaxy. The Covenant were either too arrogant, or too ignorant, to properly encrypt these orders. Still, Cortana realized that the UNSC had not, until just now, discovered their deceptively simple system... so who was more ignorant? There were deployment orders for hundreds of ships: carriers, destroyers, tenders—a massive fleet. They were to meet at select locations, join up, refuel, gather resources, and then orient for the next Slipspace jump. Cortana knew how to translate these simple symbols into stellar coordinates. There—a jump to the Lambda Serpentis system to gather tritium gas for their reactors. And there—another jump to the Hawking system to meet with three dozen carriers and effect a transfer of Seraph fighters. And there— Cortana halted all her processes. She directed her full intellect to check and recheck her translation matrix a hundred times. There was no error. The terminating coordinates for the Covenant's impending operation was Sol. The Covenant were headed to Earth."
