1. Are we looking at any quest reworks in the near future?
Shield of Arrav rework coming soon.
I don't know of any others in development.

5. How does Jas feel about her stone being blown to pieces?
You assume an Elder God would have discernible emotions like us mere mortals. At best her reaction is indiscernible.
Ascertes said :
6. Even though the SoJ pillar is now concluded, can we expect to see the young gods in the near future?
Nope. We're getting rid of the young gods. Their day is done. It's over. Pack it up. We're taking our catalyst fragments and going home. Turn the lights off on your way out.

Thanks for doing a Lore Corner guys (though it should be front and the center of attention,) we really appreciate you doing these kinds of things
But to the questions:
1. Are we looking at any quest reworks in the near future?
Never say never.
Ascertes said :
2. What caused Jas to wake up and reach out to Sliske and enlist him?
So Jas was sort of already awake, ish (it's complicated).
When she finally decided to pay attention to Gielinor again properly, she noticed that it was covered in all these... things. These creatures that neither she, nor her sisters, knowingly created.
She was curious.
Wanting to know more, she found one of these ant things (they're all very much alike to an elder god) and demanded that it gather the leaders of the other insect-things and bring them to her to study.
Given that Sliske was this insect-thing, you can guess how this might have been... misused.

3. Where is nomad now?
He's right... oh... well he was there a moment ago... maybe death took him? Right... right?
Ascertes said :
4. Juna says Guthix travelled underneath where Lumbridge is now to continue his slumber, but his actual vault was in Kandarin. Why does she say this?
Guthix moved so that no one would know where he slumbered, save for perhaps Cres.

Meaningless
Its purpose
Served

6. Even though the SoJ pillar is now concluded, can we expect to see the young gods in the near future?
Absolutely, we're not done with the gods yet.

1. Is this the last we've seen of Brassica Prime and Marimbo? Will they develop a friendship of sorts?
Last we've seen? Absolutely not. I'm sure we'll see Brassica and Marimbo again, in the appropriate stories.
Not sure about friendship, they're sort of frenemies and I think that dynamic is due to stay.
Zaxypax said :
2. Do you have any plans for V (I'm still hoping he somehow faked his death
) or his followers? I also ask this of Bandos' followers.
V is dead. But perhaps his legacy is not...
Bandos is also dead.
But there may yet be stories with his followers.
Zaxypax said :
4. What role will the Dragonkin play going forward, will they assist certain beings above others?
Spoilers.
Zaxypax said :
5. Will the Queen of Ashes and Xau-Tak (as well as the Younger Gods) be understanding of the Elder Gods' message?
That's up to the World Guardian to find out.

Is there any chance of more diversity in the metaphysical theories, e.g. an Armadylean planar theory, a Saradominist theory of magic, a Fremennik anima theory, etc? I've proposed this recently here and here . This might allow for some more creativity and contradiction on these topics.
I don't think we're going to (publically) go into quite the detail that you have on your thread (I have read it, but don't have the time for a really detailed response I'm afraid).
I'm not wholly keen on giving detailed explanations to how more esoteric things work as I think it hinders, rather than enhances story. I am a fan of leaving some questions unanswered and with just enough mystery to get people talking.
If we explained everything, we wouldn't see threads like yours and that would make me sad.
On a side note, you have made some assumptions about characters in your thread that are really really not true.
But I did enjoy the thread muchly.

If I were to ask a really self-serving question, I'd ask, What do you think of
this thread
, in which I've drawn together 10 years of lorehounding? - it is my response to a conversation begun with Mod Raven in Dec 2006.
