All Covenant ships were outfitted with them to do nothing more than to scan for Forerunner Artifacts. Answer to second question is the first time Halo was discovered by the Covenant was during the events of "Halo CE", so I don't think that was where they were.Another troll? Two in one thread?
He's not trolling, he's answering your question. Luminaries were a reverse-engineered Forerunner technology that detected Forerunner artifacts, facilities and other things associated with them. Every Covenant ship had a luminary so they could find Forerunner relics.
He raises a valid point in regard to your second question. Installation 04 was the first Halo to be discovered, so I doubt that the Lekgolo were chewing on a Halo, else the Covenant would have killed us all a lot sooner.*facepalm*
I did not ask what the Covenant used them for. I asked what FORERUNNERS USED THEM FOR.
And with regards to question 2, I'm saying that the rings around Te (what looked to be various space rocks) that the Hunters were chewing on was actually the remnants of a destroyed Halo. I thought of this because in Primordium, *spoilers* when trying to avoid the gas giant, Chakas is going to try to fit the Halo all the way around the planet (I don't remember if they ended up doing that or something else).
