Do you guys think the lore reason Zeah isn't yet in RS3 is because it's where Xau-Tak comes from, and is completely under his control? This is why no character mentions Zeah at all, because Xau-Tak intentionally keeps it hidden for his plans. In the OSRS timeline, Zeah is freed from the influence of Xau-Tak because Guthix's Edicts will never be stripped, therefore in OSRS Xau-Tak is forced away from Zeah back into the Eastern sea ocean. Xau-Tak's plans to use OSRS Zeah will never happen with Guthix always alive and sleeping. Perhaps in OSRS Xau-Tak was the god that influenced Xeric to create the lizardmen and made him obsessed with the Dark Altar, as he created the Dark Altar.
But in RS3, with the death of Guthix Xau-Tak erased everyone's memory of Zeah and could come back to the continent. Without the adventurer doing quests in RS3 Zeah, Xau-Tak has regained control of the continent and given new power to the lizardmen, and all bosses in the Chambers of Xeric for his attack on the Elder Gods in a future Elder Gods quest. Xau-Tak is possibly a shadow anima Elder God, and his activities must be stopped when the World Guardian goes to the corrupted Zeah and frees it by helping the Elder Gods in GWD3 and they therefore directly strike against Xau-Tak in Zeah.
Thoughts?
