Editing Covenant rope

{{Era|FS}}
The '''Energy Tether''' is a device used by [[Covenant]] soldiers to rapidly descend from high places. They work similar to rappelling rope, but are made of pure energy. It is unclear how the ropes are kept together or how they are powered, but they appear to work just as well as normal rope without causing rope-burn if descended too rapidly. The most common usage of these ropes are by [[Elites]] and [[Jackals]].

Covenant soldiers have been known to use energy rope-like tethers to climb, and descend steep surfaces.

-The [[Covenant]] use a type of '''rope''' to rapidly descend from high places. These tethers are described as "slithering, plasticine ropes which glow ghostly blue". In [[2552]], during the [[Raid of Reach]], teams of [[Sangheili]] used them to rappel down on the floor of the central room of the [[Menachite portal complex]] below [[Reach]], to recover the [[Forerunner crystal]] from [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Halsey]] and the [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartans]].{{Ref/Novel|FS|Chapter=22}}
