What happens to the Staff of Armadyl after Sliske's Endgame?

What race was Aeternam and will we see her again? And how can she be our predecesor when we approached Guthix at the end of the Third Age in TLW he didn't know about the concept of World Guardian?

When will there be a werewolf quest?

Now that Sliske resides within us can we enter and leave the Shadow Realm?

How did Sliske acquire the Barrows equipment? I don't see him as a smith or a crafter so how can he make armor and weapons better than dragon which was made by the dragonkin?

When will we meet the Godless leader Biehn? Why weren't there any godless in SE? It is as if they don't care about the SoJ.

When can we expect Rite of Passage?

Can you give us some info about Saradomin's daughter Adrasteia?

If Tumeken is slumbering then where is Elidinis and are they ascended falcon and hippo?

What are the tiers of V, Xau-Tak, God Gileinor and Queen of Ashes?

Where did Vindicta's army come from and why do they all have such high tier armor and weapons? According to Captian Rovin it is far too expensive to equip an army with weapons better than steel.

Do Cthonians get all the abilitys of beings they eat? Can an abyssal demon become an architect by eating one? Can it enter the Shadow Realm and become spell caster if it ate a mahjarrat that can?

Is Temekel truly dead? He is more badass than any other mahjarrat so I hope not.

Will we ever see King Vallance or is he just another Calsidiu?

How can the Moonclan use magic without runes? Their book says that they view runes as tools to call upon magic from within oneself and that they no longer require these "tools" but in Heart of Stone we learn that magic comes the anima of Gilienor so which is it?

Mahjarrat seems to genuinly use magic from withing themselves hence why they get drained and need to rejuvenate so does this mean that even if all the anima is consumed mahjarrat could still use magic?

Why are there different giants? Fire, ice, etc?
There is joy in combat that can't be found anywhere else.

Why has the Curator been MIA since Tales of the God Wars? One would think he would be interested in Zaros's Throne Room and the Memorial to Guthix.

How real could Hanalan and Birman be? Are they restricted to folklore or could they make an appearance in the future?

Can we visit the Dimension of Disaster for another grand adventure again soon?

1. Who exactly are "The Obsidian Tribunal" that held Saradomin's daughter mentioned by Zaros to players whom are his followers in Sliske's Endgame?

2. Will a new "god of war" ever rise to take Bandos' place or lead them as Zaros has hinted? Have you got any plans for the Bandosians so far?

3. Is Saradomin's daughter Adrasteia on the godhood tier or atleast a demi-god of some sorts?

4. Will Saradomin ever return to Teragard and when can you make it happen so we can go there?

5. Who is Xau-Tak and what kind of god are they?

6. Do you have any information on what the Queen of Ashes' faction is going to be based on or like and if she might receive an emissary?

7. Is Nomad still alive after endgame?

8. What happened to the Siphon after Endgame concluded?

9. Have you got any information on Tumeken's alignment and what his relationship or views of the other gods will been?

And 10th: Did Icthlarin or Death ascend/go up a tier after killing the god "Gielinor"?

1. How advanced would you say Terragardians are? Do they have flying cars and what not?
2. In TLW Zaros talks about SIX elder gods, with one of them being "something else", any plans to elaborate on that?
3. Are the gods deaths Death saw fixed, or can they be changed?
4. How are the afterlives made?
5. Are there any "Western Lands"? I'd love to see an area inspired by Native American type culture, to go with Eastern's Asia vibe, and Main continent's Europe/ME/Africa style
6. If you guys want to go to other worlds, how do you plan to deal with the World Gate given that using it means requiring quite a lot of quests?
7. Any more plans for the Tzhaar? I love the race and the city, would like to see it get some more love.
8. Will we be interacting with the newly revealed Elder Artifacts any time soon?
9. Is Sliske going to be bodyjacking us now?
10. What happens to the souls of animals?
11. When and how did Sliske make contact with Jas?
12. Why did Jas want all the gods gathered in one location?
13. Why did Jas make Sliske her agent? Why didn't she enslave him like the dragonkin?
14. Do Armadyl and Seren reach an agreement later if you couldn't convince them to talk to each other in the maze?
15. Are there any plans for a Young Gods pillar? I hope the other factions besides Seren and Zaros can play a role in savng Gieinor from the Elder Gods.
We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.

After the new guthix memory event some of my forgotten lore questions resurfaced, most notably regarding the enchanted key.

This artifact holds immense power and I find it difficult to believe it was merely constructed by the Trahearn clan by normal means. I reckon asking how it has been created will not result in an answer, for that is something we probably will have to learn ourselves in future quests. We know that it is not an elder artifact. Still I'd like to ask the following:

Does the enchanted key rival the power of elder artifacts?

I mean elder artifacts were merely constructed as tools to make building new worlds easier for the elder gods. Raw power was never the main intention and as such many of the ways in which the artifacts are used nowadays focus mostly on the byproducts of the elder artifact their function. The Measure for example is an artifact we currently not even see a means of proper use in, as it was never meant to be wielded by a mortal with no desire of building worlds.

The key's specific purpose is timetravel and with its profound effects on timelines (creating a multiverse of sorts), I ask if this ability rivals the power gained through using elder artifacts for their side effects.
Even Guthix, someone with extensive knowledge on one of the most powerful elder artifacts, is taken by surprise by the existence of timetravelling individuals, going as far as to even refuse this to exist at first.

By extension, wouldn't this key be a highly sought after artifact if more gods knew about its existence and capabilities, possibly being desired on a similar level as the Stone of Jas? For example, by simply knowing the Stone of Jas its position at one point in time you could travel back and claim it for yourself using the key. The possibilities are MORE endless than the power of the Stone of Jas can even provide. "One should not mindlessly follow gods or the godless:
follow
your
own
path
"

1. Being a Zarosian, supported Zaros in all the quest and intend to give the SoJ to him but why is he hostile towards you?

2. In SE boss fight Sliske was able to make a stand against both Zaros and Seren (two tier 2 gods) how is that possible? Has he ascended to high T2 godhood strength?

3. Zaros has always been said to have plans, lots and lots of plans and good with language and logic, but why did he act like a spoiled brat when he met Jas? He didnt use his logic, he was emotional which would be Serens thing.

4. What is the World Guardian Unleashed power boost? WHERE did the energy for the boost come from?

5.Why does Seren and Armadyl care about just one race each?

6.How does Jas has an opinion on Seren eventhough when they met Seren didnt say a word to her?

7.Are we ever going to see Zaros' staff/spear weapon in action? We always see it in his hands in concept arts. How powerful is it?

8.With the SoJ being destroyed does it mean if the Great Revision occur then in the next circle Jas wouldnt exist?

9.Is Princess Astrid, guthix dead after Nomads Elergy?

10.What happened to Kerapac after he destroyed the SoJ? Is he alive?

Several of my questions cover similar topics.

How is the existence of an afterlife purely for mortals (not even allowing ascended gods in) consistent with a universe made by the elder gods? It seems like only the elder gods would be powerful enough to create an afterlife and yet there is no reason that they would. What is the origin of the afterlife?

Seren and Zaros are direct creations of Mah and this is what I personally believe to be the reason they could withstand the divinity nerfing effect in Sliske's maze. However, their relation to the world guardian strongly suggests that Guthix had substantially more power than either of them. Is prolonged exposure to Elder Artefacts really enough to become substantially more powerful than the extrinsically divine Seren and Zaros?

Guthix appointed Death to his reaper role and Tumeken and Amuscut granted Icthlarin divinity. These characters are essential to the functioning of the afterlife as we know it. Did the afterlife exist prior to Guthix/Tumeken and if so did others take the roles Death and Icthlarin have now?

Sliske is very clearly still around after the end of Sliske's Endgame. However, Jas asks us to explain his end. Has Sliske somehow fooled an elder god?

Jas says mortal life is unexpected, and it has been previously stated that Mah would have eliminated any possibility of mortal life if she was not impaired. The dragonkin were bound to the stone of Jas. Are the dragonkin not mortal? If so, could we get a clear definition of what mortal means? Is it related to ability to reproduce, natural lifespan, or divinity?

Mah is glowing and yet Zaros claims to possess her core. What gives?

Do the dragonkin predate the destruction of Freneskae in the previous cycle?

So now that we have 7/8 Guardians of Guthix, will we be meeting Aeternam anytime soon? Since when we defeat the Balance Elemental, all the people who made it would have returned to live their normal lives, yet as a Guardian Aeternam would also be able to technically live until killed by other means no?

What memory is Treborn?

The Guardians of Guthix echo is just a reuse of an old postbag section, is this because of time constraints?

What/ who is Aeternam? Unless meaning differently, they were with Guthix since he first brought whatever they were to Gielinor? Or did he mean since they woke him at the end of the Third Age?

The Memorial to Guthix will probably be one of my favourite pieces of content this year! Is there anymore lore heavy content planned for this year?
