2 sliskes end game questions
1. I win the foot race against the god and zaros threatened my existence if i didnt give him the stone. How did he plan to do this if we still have guthix's blessing?

2. Are Zaros and Seren able to keep their godly powers and not be cast out due to the stone of jas not being their source of power like the other gods? Therefore the stone only affected those which it had given power to? I have seen the dark universe yawning, where the black planets roll without aim;
Where they roll in their horror unheeded, without knowledge or lustre or name.

I'm back for a third time, ayyy.


Are the magic abilities - such as Wrack, Asphyxiate, and so on - all canon? As in, are they legitimate spells that mages can use in the world of Runescape, and not just a game mechanic?

What's the difference between a siren and a mermaid? Do both have hydrokinetic abilities?

Is dragonfire some mix of chemical fire, magical fire, and just general extreme heat? If not, what differentiates it from normal fire?

What races DO generally need runes for standard magic, and what races don't, of the following? Elves, werewolves, dwarves (pre-curse), icyene, aviantese, trolls?

Is it possible for a master runecrafter and mage to craft a few runes without the need for an altar?

Can we get some elaboration on the relationship between music and magic, first hinted at in 'The Harmony of the Runes'? Apparently, notes correspond to runes. Does this mean a musically-inclined mage can use music instead of runes to cast their magic?

I know Camelot lore is iffy and wonky, but it's still in game, so: Where is 'Britain' in the Runescape universe? Is it on Earth (if it exists in the multiverse of RS)? Is it on Teragard? Or some other human-conquered world?

Are Kethsi and Abbinah in the same 'realm bubble'? Because it seems most worlds aren't differentiated only by being different planets, but being different realms entirely - as in, some sort of dimensional bubble around them, I guess? That was first hinted at in the Tuska event. If you could clear that up, that'd be great. Also, if Kethsi and Abbinah ARE in the same 'bubble', do they share an Underworld/Afterlife? Albeit, separated and divided once you're down there, since they're different species with different 'homes' and religions. Mods pls notice me

So in memorial of guthix we learn guthix gave mortals the knowledge of magic via runes, so we can assume humans outside gielinor cant use magic, the thing is some humans in gielinor can use magic without runes: like lunar clan, Kennith, and seers if I'm not mistaken; why can they use magic without runes? also am I wrong in the assumption that humans outside gielinor cant use magic at least in the same way as gielinorians do? if that is the case what is the source of power non-gielinorian humans use for their magic?

Ran out of space to edit into my previous post, so continuing here. Asked some Godless questions there -- time for some godly ones!

7. Some seem to be assuming that Elder Gods can only be female, but that doesn't quite make sense to me -- "female" is the way all the current ones are considered, but they have no real basis for actually being female. Neither do Zaros/Seren, for that matter. Obviously Jas has her own reasons for stating Zaros can't be an Elder God, with the whole flame/star thing, but is it at least the case that gender (or perceived gender, anyway) is not a barrier?

8. This dialogue in Sliske's Endgame:

Original message details are unavailable.
Armadyl: We could have been reasoned with. We would have listened. We would have accepted a graceful surrender.
Zamorak: You...perhaps. You still cling to the mortality of mortals, perhaps trying to convince yourself you are one. But not him. Not Saradomin. He had my death sentence pronounced from the moment our war began.

Of the gods surrounding Zamorak at the end of the God Wars (as seen in DAT), Saradomin certainly seemed to be the one most stubbornly against him. So might this confrontation (and by extension, the outcome of the God Wars and for Forinthry) have been different, had he not been involved? Had it just been Armadyl and Zamorak, for instance? Or even Bandos, who seemed at least able to relate to Zamorak in a way that Saradomin couldn't?

9. Was there anything in particular planned to happen for alternative outcomes to the World Events? eg. Zamorak winning WE1, Bandos winning WE2... would Zaros have potentially got involved if Tuska had "won" WE3?

10. Would the Queen of Ashes and Zamorak get along like a house on fire? Or would their relations go down in flames?

11. Worth a shot: did Armadyl's ascension involve a god's death?

With regards to Telos and Vorago, Are the Elder Gods aware of them? as they both claim to be guardians of Gielinor's Anima Mundi. Also can you give us a definite answer: Who would win in a fight between the two? Telos or Vorago. Zarosianz: Legatus, Legally-Blind Player,
