Been reading Glasslands recently, and I must ask this question; how did Captain Osman communicate real-time with Parangosky despite being on the other side of the galaxy?

It is a tier 2 capability, to have near instantaneous communication abilities. Like their ultra-fast slipspace drive it must be another product of Forerunner/Covenant technology. Shame it isn't highlighted in the novel...

Yeah, I was reading it and as a reader I had to assume that it must be an innovation from Forerunner/Covenant technology. Odd that it wasn't even briefly mentioned, I was expecting some idea about entangled pairs or something.
