The Prison of Elders is a prison facility in The Reef, under the oversight of Variks, the Loyal. The Archon Priest Aksor was previously a prisoner before later being retrieved and having his soul restored by the House of Winter on Venus. The Prison of Elders is also known to contain many royals from the House of Wolves, [1] though it also contains Hive and Cabal inmates.
