In an effort to reunite his people in light of the Traveler's apparent neglect of them after awakening, Variks contracted the help of a bounty hunter named [[Groks]] to make contact with [[Craask]], the Kell of Kings. Variks believed that Craask would understand his mission alongside the rest of the Kings, who previously ended the [[Edge Wars]] with the House of Judgement before the Whirlwind. However, Groks divulged that Craask had been killed by Fikrul and an Awoken man, and that the House of Kings has gone into hiding in the [[European Dead Zone]] of Earth.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore:Most_Loyal#Job_Undone|Most Loyal: Job Undone]]''</ref> Alarmed, Variks contacted Cayde-6 to meet in person within the territory of [[the Spider]] in the [[Tangled Shore]]. Wearing a cloak devoid of the Judgement sigil to avoid aggression from others hosted by the Spider, Variks met Cayde in a gambling hall, explaining that Fikrul had been seen alive. When the Exo doubted him, Variks presented examples of Fallen cheating death in the past, inadvertently mentioning Taniks, the Scarred, angering Cayde. Variks apologized and asked to be taken to the [[Tower (Destiny 2)|Tower]] to speak with Commander [[Zavala]], offering a rare [[hand cannon]] in return. Cayde agreed, and returned to the Tower with Variks.<ref name="SomeKindOfLuck"/> | In an effort to reunite his people in light of the Traveler's apparent neglect of them after awakening, Variks contracted the help of a bounty hunter named [[Groks]] to make contact with [[Craask]], the Kell of Kings.
