Recent Events

A Feast for Crows

He was a mysterious man that none knew very much about. He went missing on the night Tyrion Lannister escaped from King's Landing. During the search of his apartments by Qyburn, a coin dating back to the reign of Garth XII was found beneath his chamber pot. Cersei Lannister therefore believed that the Tyrells had played a role in Tyrion's escape.[2]

Identity

GRRM has confirmed that "Rugen" is actually a cover identity of Varys.[3]
