Just a couple minor things off the type of my head...

Your dialogue with (restored) Senliten indicates that you already are familiar with Scabarite ideology, which I think would put Missing my Mummy right after Dealing with Scabaras.

As I remember it, Summer's End follows immediately after Spirit of Summer, with the earth rumbling break of the Spirit Beast prompting you to ask Summer what's going on.

However, I may be misinterpreting things here.

"Should-be" Requirement:
All Fired Up > Defender of Varrock [Beacons are used in the latter quest]

Other Stuff:
Dig Site > A Soul's Bane [Player would notice it after being around the Digsite area; furthermore, Tolna makes a reference to Senntisten]
Swan Song > At a First Resort [Would be a nice heads up to SS being the Wise Old Man's last quest, so that he can finally relax now, as seen in AFR's final cutscene] I'm too Unaligned to have a forum signature.

It does say that during Missing My Mummy? Hmm, does it only say that if you have completed Dealing with Scabaras or regardless?

Either way it's interesting. If it is dependent on completion it would be a quest reference, but if it happens regardless then I'd think it'd be player knowledge.

Although, is there anything indicating that it happens directly after Missing My Mummy, or just "after" it? Sometime after, anyway.


As for Summer's End, I dunno. If I recall correctly it appears as if some time has passed since Spirit of Summer. While the quest animation and sound will happen automatically after if you have the requirements, that's just similar to how Regicide can be started a few minutes after Underground Pass. Gameplay wise they can't restrict you from doing it right after, but the NPC's act as if a lot of time has passed.

Although since there's no transcript of it yet, unless someone looks through some videos or until I get to Summer's End in the Marathon, it could be some time before we know for sure. You can only fully appreciate a story when you experience it through the eyes of one of its characters.

Wow, All Fired Up isn't a requirement already? Then yeah, that is a "should-be" requirement. It just seemed obvious that it was so I didn't notice it wasn't. :P

I'll add that to the section then.

I don't have a section for location though, it does make sense to do it after digsite since it's proximity to where it takes place, but yeah.

However, it does fall under the unique side of player knowledge to have it done after Digsite, where something a quest is about would be better aquainted with some pre-requisite knowledge to have a better understanding of it.

And Swan Song, yeah, that does seem like a quest reference. It wouldn't have to take place directly after for that to work, but just, "after" it. You can only fully appreciate a story when you experience it through the eyes of one of its characters.
