(Dangit no plasma! Well, when in doubt, Carbine.) Let's actually play this out. So, we'll say that you come across a ship of previously unknown make within an asteroid belt. You send a transmission requesting communication, and you receive text only messages in return. The Sangheili are just now entering the Galaxy.

GREETINGS.

WE ARE THE SCIONS OF THE WHITE SPHERE, HUMBLE ASPECTS OF THE POST-HUMAN REPUBLIC.

YOU ARE UNFAMILIAR TO US, THOUGH WE RECOGNIZE THAT YOU ARE NEITHER HUMAN NOR POST HUMAN.

THE WHITE SPHERE TAUGHT US THAT WE ARE TO TREAT NEW SPECIES WITH RESPECT UNTIL SUCH TIME AS WE LEARN MORE OF THEM.

SPEAK AND WE SHALL LISTEN. "We are Sangheili. We hail from the planet Sanghelios, not too far from here. At least not when you have Slipspace. We seek Forerunner technology. We also seek allies." ALLIES ARE USEFUL THINGS IN A DANGEROUS GALAXY.

IF YOU WISH, WE CAN SEND A VESSEL CARRYING A DIPLOMAT TO A PLACE OF YOUR CHOOSING. "Here are our current co-ordinates." Several numbers flash up on the screen.
