The Empty Path - Part 19

A tall figure in purple robes and gold armour plating hovers towards them, leaving shadows and dark crystals in his wake. His eight eyes gleaming through a helmet under his hood comb the Umbreshuun as he comes. Uggy can feel an urge to obey him, and although she has enough will to overcome this urge, she is more than happy to comply. She knew straight away who he was. The rest of the Umbreshuun bow to him as he comes, and Azzanadra says, "Welcome back, my lord."

Zaros stops in front of them and tells them,
"Competition for the Heart of Gielinor is still strong. Vindicta is still in danger from all sides, I do not wish for her people to die out."
Uggy then says, "Then we needs to save her!" Zaros looks down at her and says gently,
"You have all done well to survive your challenges together, and you have proved the potential you can serve for the world time and time again. Do not squander yourselves. Besides, Vindicta has a score to settle there, and she has a goal to save her race."
He turns to the dark crystal that was opaque to Azzanadra, and now it shows the fighting going on in the Heart.
"Sliske has returned his chamber back to the material realm, it seems. Perhaps he wishes to broadcast this battle for his own amusement?"


He turns to the Umbreshuun, with a smile on the collar-mask near his face.
"You have all proven yourselves as defenders of the universe. You deserve to see with your own eyes the beauty of your vision. However, I must make a request for you to aid the defence of the universe from gods more powerful than myself. Will you help me?"
Without hesitation, calm expressions on all of their faces, they all agree on the same thing. Uggy answers, "We helps you. This is path towards fate, we not see beautiful place at end if they destroys it."

The Empty Path - Part 20 (Door to the Future)

Zaros and Seren arrange to meet in Tirannwn, and they look at each other for quite a long time. Eventually, the first words are said at the same time. "Forgive me." Zaros looks down at the ground, looking quite sad.
"I missed you so much, my dear sister. Please forgive me for leaving you. I -"
But before Zaros can say another word, Seren embraces him, saying,
"I know. Forgive me, Zaros, for misunderstanding you. I know now that you are not trying to control things. You are always welcome to visit any time."
They both look at each other for a while; their abilities to instil loyalty and love which they had been born with are now erased, and now they are free from influence. They have officially reconciled.

In between their adventures and quests, the player visits Uggy from time to time. When asked if she had seen the beautiful place that the Umbreshuun had been pursuing, she replies, "Yes, we see it. And now we waits to see what else fate has for us. We goblins is doing well. You give us hope for tomorrow, and we is grateful for you." Her house has a cherry blossom in the garden, and a small goblin child plays in it. Her son, Trisk. Studge, the father, plays along with him, pushing the boy on a swing. Uggy walks over to them both. Both parents are in their prime, having grown very strong since their adventures with the Umbreshuun, who have made a significant name for themselves in goblin and RuneScape history. Trisk toddles over to her, saying, "Mummy, who that?" Studge tells him, "That was human who tell us to follow God of Empty Shadows. We make ourselves great because of that." Uggy crouches down and places a hand on her son's shoulder. "Me has story to tell you, Trisk." And she pulls out the box with the insignia and gives it to him. "You should read note inside later. You understand more when you is older."

A epilo in Drakker...



The Drakewing...an experiment of Zaros, the empty one had taken human dna and implanted it into a dragonkin egg, the last batch, only 7 survived, i am one of them. We have no curse, we are generals in Zaros' army, or he calls us, Legatus', I personally lead his 91st legione of Dragon Riders to victory, we are the empty fist, as we have come to be known as,

I am the fist of Zaros, i am his vanguard, his rider, and my legione are loyal to the word.

I often ponder, what if i was human, where would i be? Would i be one of Sliske's 'actors', or perhaps another experiment of zaros, but gone wrong?



Then...It happened.

I was on guard duty around Zaros' divine palace, i circled on my fire drake, Arlio, and then i saw a figure, wreathed in red with wings jutting out...Zamorak.

I went to stop him from entering but he threw a great ball of magma and flame at Arlio and we fell from the sky, i lived, as a gift of my Dragonkin descent, but Arlio was just ash by the end...

After a few minutes of paralysis, i stood and felt a surge of fear, pain, anguish...He had been killed...Zaros had been killed.


Ever since that night i saw myself as banished and forgotten, so i decided i would act as a mercenary under a drake-like humanish disguise that i had learnt, i earned much in money and in combat, more so than i had, i also learned about the other gods, their followers, their weaknesses, then came the 6th age, i had been chosen by Guthix himself to fight for gielinor with his guardians, to free the world from war, so i opted to re-join the Zarosian Legions, mainly because Zaros was sure to return....

Azzanadra and i had contact after i had freed him, but when he told me to restore Zaros, i donned my ceremonial armour of the Drakewings and i flew into the world gate to find him




Now, i wonder what would happen if i had been born a dragonkin as they have returned as well....Would i be a dactyl? To break Jas' curse?

The Defender Of Law

"One time, in a world not of our own, Abbinah, a ave child was born...He was given the name, Vorask, but something was different..."
I am ready to start the trial. "You must not be so sure young Vorask, not many survive." I am ready, Archon. The young Aviansie walks to the edge of his village and swoops down to collect his water for his trials. After Vorask has come back up, he has so much water that it was able to be given to all the villages nearby and still have a full well leftover. "Vorask! Armadyl himself would be proud of you!" Thank you Archon, though i doubt i-- A cry of thousands of birds are heard and the Avian god Armadyl himself appears, glances at the well and whispers to Vorask to announce that Vorask would be trained as a skyguard, one of the most elite positions an Aviansie could play their role as.
Next Post.

"Vorask. You have done our people favor that we may never forget, you showed incredible flying in your trial, this leads me to extend an invitation to be personal All Terrain Recon Guard, the ATRG or the Skyguard." Armadyl had praised the young aviansie so much that Vorask fainted!



More will come.

The Empty Promise


*After a long, uncomfortable wait outside the ruined egg chambers of the elder gods, Zaros emerges, glowing with a strange power*

Zaros:
It is time, World Guardian. The Great Revision is upon us.

World Guardian:
WHAT?! But I thought you said we were trying to stop Gielinor from being destroyed!

Zaros:
We have come to an arrangement, as planned. The Elder Gods have allowed me to join them in the next cycle. I will make a new Gielinor, free from the petty infighting of the lesser gods.

World Guardian:
But what about everyone who's already here? And what about me?! Y...you need me!

Zaros:
Do not concern yourself. I have promised you the betterment of your world, and I will hold myself to it. It will be a perfect world, and I will be its guardian.

World Guardian:
You can't do this! I swore to Guthix I would protect this world!

Zaros:
You no longer hold the power to decide; I am above your little shielding. But as I escort you to your afterlife, remember: This is what Guthix would have wanted.

Behind the Scenes for The Empty Promise:
This was a headcanon quickie after I skimmed through the now locked "Zarosian Empire: A Scrutiny" thread and remembered how I'm convinced the whole "Zaros and the elder gods" arc could end very badly if you wind up fully restoring him. Then again, in a different canon, it goes equally poorly if you weaken him. Maybe I'm just a pessimist like that. :P

Essentially this follows the same story arc as my previous headcanon, where you and Zaros have just destroyed the Elder's God's eggs on Gielinor, causing them all to converge on your position. In our previous tale, having crippled Zaros, he can't help, so good luck dealing with that on your own! But here, Zaros has managed to fully reform and has you wait outside while he negotiates with the elder gods, as you had agreed .


Here's a link to the different headcanon I made a while back for when you don't restore Zaros to full power:

I kind of figured I'd get that sort of response from a Zarosian. :P Still, words hurt .

Maybe I could've reworded the last bit to sound less villainy. I like to think even as he's doing something completely horrendous like this, he would talk to you in the same calm, reassuring neutral voice, which is what I really wanted to capture.

Write what you think will happen, if you have so much faith in Zaros. That's what this thread is all about. Like I said, helping him ascend or not, I see this ending really badly. Do you have an idea for the future that doesn't involve the end of the world? Because I'm clearly a pessimist.

Firstly, LOL. I really like how you rainbowed my comment. xD That actually made me smile so thanks for that.
Secondly, my honest theory is one of the Elder Gods, probably Jas (judging by the treatment we get from JasKra opposed to the other Kra) will see why the mortals matter, and side with/support Zaros. Either that, or Zaros ends up sacrificing himself to somehow prevent the Elder Gods from needing to omnomnomnom on Gielinor.
