Whilst advising within the House of Wolves, Variks befriended an [[Archon|Archon Priest]], [[Fikrul]]. The two conspired to hide the Wolves' Prime Servitor, [[Kaliks Prime]] after reaching Sol.

Unable to abide the attack on civilians, he contacted the [[Crow (title)|Crows]] and helped put an end to the uprising, leading to Skolas's capture. (It is likely that part of Variks's agenda was his hatred of Skolas, since he claims that he was responsible for the removal of his arms). From that day, Variks served the Queen of the Awoken.
