He didn't die last time. But then last time he was using an Amulet of Strength.
What last time? NO
I do not ship ZamorakxZaros.
I follow them. And Marimbo, the best t5 god.

Ah, er, you should read the novels. I'm referring to Legacy of Blood. Bizarre Boron Fusswell, scryer extraordinaire. OSRS: POH ideas & RS3 minigames & achievement ideas !

Perhaps you're half right; perhaps we can't win. But we can fight.

So Vanescula plans to invade?

My oh my.
With the 5th Age content still in flux, does make you wonder who Varrock can call upon in this time of need.

You figure that "All Fired Up" will become a requirement for the finale. Mostly because this is 1 of the reasons why the beacon network was created in the first place.
Unknown if "Defender of Varrock" would be a requirement as well. Placing the upcoming Battle (or standoff at least) AFTER the invasion of Varrock, would give for a very tested Misthalin Army.

But we do know that King Roald will call up the forces of Varrock, Lumdrige, Draynor, and Edgeville.

After that?
- Kinshra? Ha, unlikely.
- Falador/Asgarnia? Maybe assuming they'd have forces to spare. Wouldn't be past them to send at least 1 detachment of White Knights and support.
- Burth/Taverly? Druids coming to aid is a possibility as well. We've seen the anti-magic warding during WE1. Perhaps something similar would appear here.
- Imperial Guard of Burth? Unlikely as too small of a force. At best you might get a few observers.
- Al Kharid? With a cold war in the desert, at most Al Kharid might just send a force more to bolster their defense along their border. Unlikely to launch an attack, but could expect a force to be a last second cavalry if the Misthalin Army is already on the verge of winning. Politically speaking they would have still "helped"
- Monks from Entrana and Edgeville? Most likely. Misthalin is Saradomist, and it would be great propaganda if they were there over Zamorakian aligned Vampyres if Misthalin won.
- Gnomes? Stretched thin. Unlikely to heavily contribute. Majority of force to far away to contribute. Maybe token support.
- Dwarves? 5th Age, stretched very thin by their commitments, as well as dealing with Red Axe. Any aid might be limited to Dwarf Cannons and engineers rather that Black Guard.

- Goblins of Goblin Village? Maybe. 5th Age. always up for a fight, so they have that incentive, and probably wouldn't want to become vampyre goblins. Questions are would King Roald trust them enough and would he have gold in kingdom treasury to recruit some?
If recruited, would probably require at least Goblin Diplomacy, maybe most of Cave Goblin Series
- Cave Goblins? Unlikely. While allied, they are still their 5th Age mentality. They aren't well equipped mentally and in material to wage a war. Would not stop them from shipping resources to aid, maybe like Dwarves, contributions come from support personnel rather than fighting forces.
If bought into the story, would require anything from Death of the Dorgreshun to Chosen Commander.
- ARMS? Large mercenary army where being hired to fight is what they were created for. Only drawbacks to the force is that they are literally on the other side of the continent and could King Roald afford them.
Luckily, only quest requirement may be "complete Moblizing Armies tutorial"
Would be ironic if the 1 time a kingdom tries to hire them, their forces are either already away or coming down with a case of the Feldip Hills Flu.
- Kandarin? Ardy, Yanille ... combination of their own internal problems during the 5th Age plus distance would make the logistics of them getting involved very very difficult. As with others, small numbers could arrive on their own initiative or redeployed from other theaters/actions, but unlikely to see full weight of Kandarin militaries brought in.
- Adventurer Guilds? Probably to Yes. Would not be the first time in stories a kingdom tried to recruit help from roving bands of armed misfits looking to make a name for themselves or a few coins.
Legend's is already a req't for the series, so bringing the Guilds in isn't too difficult.
Perhaps the different Guilds would allow the battle/war to sub for the normal recruitment policy.

I figure the only ones that might really help (not least because it would be silly to introduce all of these random armies this far into the series) Varrock are Wizards' Tower wizards, the mercenaries participating in the protocol, maaaybe Lumbridge guardsmen and some individuals. Bizarre Boron Fusswell, scryer extraordinaire. OSRS: POH ideas & RS3 minigames & achievement ideas !

Replace vampyres with Knights of Ardougne? Sounds good to me. Bizarre Boron Fusswell, scryer extraordinaire. OSRS: POH ideas & RS3 minigames & achievement ideas !

It's just going to be a repeat of past battles and end with the status quo remaining or a happily ever after ending. I'd rather the status quo it feels more appropriate to the tone of the series with maybe some humans escaping just to have some effect.

The question is in a status quo ending who would rule the Vampyres? I'm hoping for Malak.

If they are going to war they should represent it properly. King Roald should have went around his territories gathering a host. There should be wizards from Varrock, that we have never seen, at the very least for the whole Runecrafting allowed human dominance lore to make sense.

I definitely think quest series' should be released in close conjunction with each other so they don't have to do graphical updates in between them (which also makes them harder to recognize more often than not). Finish the vyre series, then we move on to other stuff.

I for one really hope we don't have to kill Vanescula. She's alright in my book, for a vampyre. At the least she has good intentions and winds up doing a lot of damage in her attempts to make every side happy, and it reminds me a lot of myself.

If I could add to your list for points to be addressed, I'd really like to see Harlow brought into the story, even if it's only in a very minor capacity. It only makes sense that the greatest vampyre hunter in Misthalin be brought in for their grand stand against the vyre army..

After buying him a beer, he helps us craft the BLISTERWOOD stake n' hammer. The ultimate anti-vyre weapon!

You see that graphical argument sounds good but in the end it just makes certain pieces of content looking way out of day. Look at Dorgeshkhan that has almost no chance of seeing a graphical update or any content released there in the games lifespan so it will continue to reflect badly on the game. Jagex do update graphics too much sometimes though. Mahjarrat are particularly notable for this and Gnomes.
