Makes you also appreciate characters like the Wise Old Man who are still technically a tier above the player character.

You're thinking about the Balance Elemental from While Guthix Sleeps saying that line about the World Guardian dying.
If the Once Upon a Time series is accurate, then yes, a true death is inevitable for the World Guardian (player char).
Who is to say the Balance Elemental hadn't gone a little loopy after millennia on the job. The Balance Elemental might have actually held Guthix as the individual in mind as the one that died and had the big funeral et al. Remember that Nomad had a fragment of the player character's soul and technically died twice during Sliske's Endgame.
Perhaps the mention was the player character's death was part of a "ruse". Some elaborate thing in a quest with everyone else involved in a stage event ot catch a villain unawares.
Or perhaps the player character fakes their death in order ot get out of the spotlight once and for all. (Death puts some sort of glamor charm on you such that no one remembers you as who you were ... even Death itself has to forget ... you are the only one to know the truth)
Heck, who is to say you're even actually dead instead of just a form of suspended animation.
Even if you look at it from the Once upon a Time quest, this is Relmonia we're talking about here. Lying or trying to mess with us.
Not like we haven't dealt with alternate timelines before either.
Regardless, the player character isn't going to truly die as long as the game continues going. the player character only dies when you stop playing.
