Varth served as a squadleader in Brightlord [[Sheler]]'s company within Amaram's army{{book ref|sa1|67}} when it fought in a variety of small border conflicts between Sadeas and his rival highprinces, as well as the [[Reshi Isles]] and the nation of [[Jah Keved]].{{book ref|sa1|47}} During a battle with [[Hallaw]]'s army, a small group of Sheler's forces (including Varth and [[Mesh]]'s squads) were suffering heavy casualties while holding a hilltop, but they was ordered to hold the line and not retreat.{{book ref|sa1|67}}{{book ref|sa4|108}} Lacking suitable reinforcements, three messenger boys including [[Tien]] were sent to Varth. The boys had no combat training and were not intended to see the battlefield, but there was no one else left to help; Tien actually volunteered for the assignment.{{book ref|sa1|67}}{{book ref|sa4|108}} Varth placed them front and center in his squad's formation. When the enemy troops reached the line, Varth's squad pulled back, leaving Tien and his companions alone at the front, where they were swiftly slaughtered. However, the distraction briefly broke the momentum of Hallaw's charge, allowing Varth's squad to counterattack. Amaram and his cavalry then swept in and routed the remaining enemies. Varth realized that Amaram had intentionally sacrificed several squads in order to make himself look good.{{book ref|sa1|67}}
[[Kaladin Stormblessed]], Tien's brother, reached Varth and his squad moments later and confronted Varth about leaving Tien and the other boys exposed.{{book ref|sa1|67}} Varth explained that he did whatever was necessary to keep himself alive, and advised Kaladin to learn to do the same. He then retreated to a more fortified position.{{book ref|sa1|67}}
