He harbors some lingering jealousy for the other races, especially humanity, as the [[Traveler]] had chosen them for its patronage and left the Fallen with nothing. Despite this opaque behavior towards the Guardians, Variks respects them by his reciprocal ethic of honor, bravery and sacrifice which he would revise for his brethren.<ref>'''Bungie (2015-5-19)''', [[Destiny]] : [[House of Wolves (expansion)| House of Wolves]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies#Skolas: Defeated|Skolas: Defeated]]''</ref> | ||
While serving under the Queen, Variks was known for speaking in rather broken English, "accented" with clicks and growls. According to [[The Spider]], this was largely an act, put on by Variks to disarm his human and Awoken collaborators and cause them to underestimate him. | While serving under the Queen, Variks was known for speaking in rather broken English, "accented" with clicks and growls.

In Beyond Light, it is revealed that all Variks wanted was another chance for the Eliksni to live in peace and was willing to work with a former bitter enemy, Eramis, to achieve it. Further, while he regrets the role he played in Cayde-6's death, he believed he had to make a hard decision for his people. Although he dared to hope that Eramis would lead the Eliksni to a brighter future, he was ultimately disappointed and saddened that she allowed her hatred to poison her good intentions and gain power from the Darkness.

Although he dared to hope that Eramis would lead the Eliksni to a brighter future, he was ultimately disappointed and saddened that she allowed her hatred to poison her good intentions and gain power from the Darkness. Though the Vanguard would not drop their civil judgement of Variks for his role in the Scorn Breakout and Cayde's death, they agreed to aid him in combating the greater threat in the meantime. Variks continues to worry for his kind as he aids refugee Fallen who wish to escape from Eramis and is happy that some would find safety in the House of Light. He continues to hold onto the hope that Riis-Reborn would be the new home it was meant to be for the Fallen and that one day, the Eliksni could live peacefully with the Guardians. | ||
