Desperate Times bring Desperate Measures, which in turn leads to Desperate Outcomes. There's no reason this series couldn't have been a three-part series, just sayin'

But I also understand that Jagex has a limited capacity to devote to quests, and we just had an enormous lore release with arch. Oh, if the world were different. But alas, that is not why I am here. I am here to suggest how, in a perfect world, this trilogy could have been run a tad bit differently.

First things first: Kerapac's villain arc was way too rushed, and we, the player, were forced to be his antagonist when a lot of what he said actually made sense. So what do I mean by "DT, DM, DO"?

Desperate Times come from the realization that the Elder God threat is imminent. This quest was done beautifully, as far as I can tell. Feel free to disagree.

Desperate Measures , in brief, is our heroes' acts of desperation, in line with Kerapac, to try and mitigate what is going on, along with the new threat, that of Seren's manipulation over the council.

Desperate Outcomes , in brief, is the logical result of dealing with these two problems: i.e. some people are gonna get enslaaaaaved. Click here for ideas on exploring other worlds, specifically the human homeworld Teragard. This one's me baby

Desperate Outcomes : The same as our current "Desperate Measures", except we're not starting with Kerapac from scratch. We still use the Measure to locate his hideout, we still excavate to find artefacts that tell us where the Nodon are hiding, we still need to go find Hannibus, fight Kerapac, fight his Black Stone Dragon, and give him the Eye of Jas. The biggest difference is that Jas has been watching our progress, and decides to enslave all of those who helped in DM—Kerapac, the Nodon, Thok, Charos and the World Guardian , except… spoiler! The World Guardian’s shadow anima soul makes them the exception among the group, and is not enslaved (which Jas is not aware of).

—————————

Anyway yup! That's what I got! In short, we help Kerapac, fill his villain arc a little bit more, and it's not a rehash of old stories where once enslaved always enslaved. Plus it gets a little juicy because Jas *thinks* the World Guardian is enslaved.

I may or may not be back here... I'm of course excited for whatever Jagex does with the future of the questline, and I certainly think there's some potential for Kerapac as a newly enslaved being. This bit about Seren had better be expanded upon later, and I gotta believe they will. But this is just a little fanfic that I hope brings some joy to your quarantine
