Variks, the Loyal: Difference between revisions

Variks was awoken from his dream by an alarm and Petra informing him over comms that Cayde-6 had returned to the Prison, requesting that two cells be readied for intake. Believing that Cayde had returned with Fikrul, Variks consumed a large amount of Ether for strength and moved to the maximum-security wing to prepare two cryo-cells. He watched as Petra shoved a weak Fikrul into one of the cells as Cayde arrived with a humanoid with a bagged head.

Variks had been contemplating on what to do, with the imprisonment of Uldren as well as his talks with the delusional Prince, and the Scorn Archon Fikrul. He was beginning to doubt himself and the plans that his Kell, Queen Mara Sov, had left for him and the few she had trusted to have knowledge on the plan<ref name="TheSpark"/><ref name=LEWLL>'''Bungie (2018.08.28)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion) | Forsaken]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard'', [[Lore:Most_Loyal#Where_Loyalty_Lies|Most Loyal: Where Loyalty Lies]]</ref>.
