History
Squadleader in Amaram's Army
Varth served as a squadleader in Brightlord Sheler's company within Amaram's army[1] when it fought in a variety of small border conflicts with Highprince Torol Sadeas's rival highprinces, as well as the Reshi Isles and the nation of Jah Keved.[3] During one battle, Varth's squad was in need of reinforcements, so a messenger boy, Tien, and two other young boys were sent to him.[1] Tien and his companions knew little of combat, so Varth placed them front and center in his squad's formation. Varth was ordered by a messenger from Amaram to defend against attacks from the east. When the enemy troops reached them, Varth's squad pulled back, leaving Tien and his companions alone at the front, where they were swiftly slaughtered. They broke the momentum of the enemy's charge though, allowing Varth's squad to defeat them.
Kaladin Stormblessed, Tien's brother, reached Varth and his squad moments later and confronted Varth about leaving Tien and the other boys exposed.[1] Varth explained that he does whatever is necessary to keep himself alive, and advises Kaladin to learn to do the same. He then retreats to a more fortified position. It is unknown if Varth survived the battle.
Legacy
Varth's words are often recalled by Kaladin later in his life,[4] although he strongly disagrees with Varth's principles.[2] Kaladin was driven for many years by a desire for power in order to exact vengeance on Varth and the men of his squad for sacrificing Tien.[5]
