So at the end of the new quest, Jas is all like Why did you kill our agent?
Is this proof that he worked for them, perhaps as some manipulated attempt to awaken the elder gods?


Probably that. But I had a few moments where I thought she could have been talking about the stone instead of Sliske...


Jas could have meant the Stone too, but in her and your dialogue, you can state, if I remember right, that "He endangered the world", which indicates that Sliske, due to the pronoun "he", was Jas' agent.

Anyway, I really liked how, after a lot of speculation since May, we finally get to know whom Sliske served and who was the mysterious voice in Kindred Spirits. From multiple possible candidates, it was Jas who was the mysterious voice. But Jas' voice in Sliske's Endgame isn't similar, in my opinion, with the voice in Kindred Spirits: in Kindred spirits, the voice speaks without pauses and angrily, whereas in Sliske's Endgame, Jas speaks with pauses and calmly. I'm not trying to falsify the revelation though, but it started to bother me a bit :)

Yup. The voice from Kindred Spirits is so utterly unlike the Jas from Endgame, I can't believe they're meant to be the same. This doesn't necessarily mean Sliske wasn't Jas's agent - perhaps he was talking to the Stone itself.

But I still prefer to think that the "agent" she mentioned was actually the Catalyst, and our character simply misunderstood. We're in an odd place where we STILL don't know what Sliske's big plan was.

If Jas was referring to the Stone as her agent, and our character just misunderstood, that's bad writing. My initial reaction to the question was that she was referring to the Stone as her agent, and not Sliske. For all the dialogue options to then be referring to Sliske would be terrible. You never were our brightest star, Khazard. 'Vermin slaughtered like lambs'? What does that even mean?

Jas showing up and talking to the player character in person was pretty terrible already, so why not?
Patrolling Lore FC almost makes you wish for a Great Revision.

If Jas was refering to the stone, then why did she summon us? I wanted to protect it. It was that jerk, Kerapac, who destroyed it. Runescape doesn't need a hero...it needs a villain. An all encompassing force of evil that will remain ever-threatening and use chaos to make the peoples of Gielinor tolerate each other, grow strong together, and fight side by side against this evil. I am that villain.
