*Variks, upon hearing rumors that his old friend [[Fikrul, the Fanatic]] is still alive, asks Cayde-6 and Petra to confirm the reports. They return to the Prison of Elders with Fikrul and a seemingly delusional Prince Uldren, who had been missing since the onset of the Taken War. Variks quickly notices that Fikrul has been changed, being sustained by a corrupted version of [[Ether]] known as [[Dark Ether]]. Through several experiments, Variks learns that the Dark Ether kills any Fallen exposed to it, then resurrects them as [[Scorn]]. Wondering what the source of the Dark Ether is, Variks questions Fikrul, who begins placing seeds of doubt within Variks' mind. Upon hearing news of the death of the [[Kell of Kings]], Variks sees himself as the last hope for the Fallen civilization, and resets the security protocols within the Prison of Elders, releasing every prisoner there. Variks then departs the prison to an unknown location, but not before sending two messages throughout the prison urging the Fallen to unite. | *Variks, upon hearing rumors that his old friend [[Fikrul, the Fanatic]] is still alive, asks Cayde-6 and Petra to confirm the reports.
