This contradicts her husband's claims that he left the city,Dialogue with Gee-Pop Varis which conforms with the general talk from Mournhold's citizen.Dialogue with Mournhold's citizen If filled in about her husband's version of Trels Varis' whereabouts, she denies that her son left the city and assures the Nerevarine that Gee-Pop Varis in his old age has grown very forgetful and foolish, which is exactly what he would tell them about her.
Trels Varis, however, has not left the city but can be found in the Secret Office producing The Common Tongue. But it is very likely that he has not told his parents his whereabouts, as this print product puts him in danger of persecution by King Helseth, against whom the accusations in The Common Tongue are directed. It might also be that his mother knows where he is and what he does, but tries to protect her son.

20	Gee-Pop Varis says his son, Trels Varis, is a scholar in a private Temple school in Kragenmoor, but Granny Varis says she has no idea where Trels Varis is right now. It doesn't make sense that the father knows but the mother doesn't. I mentioned this peculiarity to Granny Varis, and she said Gee-Pop would forget his head if it weren't jammed tight on his neck. But I suspect they are not telling me the truth.
