This afternoon, I brought Postie Pete another 300 last wills. In exchange, he gave me three medium parcels of forgotten belongings. Then I claimed a large parcel for free.
While the medium parcels contained nothing remarkable, inside the large parcel I found:
A set of dragonkin bones
A set of frost dragon bones
A Skeletal Bear pet token
I activated the token to summon my new boney friend.

Late tonight, I completed Daily Challenges in Dungeoneering, Fishing, and Smithing.
I used a challenge token to skip the Dungeoneering task. Next, I caught 14 crayfish behind the Lumbridge church. Then I smithed 150 rune arrowheads at the Lumbridge anvil.
I redeemed these challenges to reach 79 Fishing.
A little later on, I used several bonfires to roast a total of 30 lobsters, and then to cook 135 protean monkfish. After I had used up 120 protean protein, I reached 79 Cooking.
Love,

My RuneScore increased to 1,780.

This afternoon, I opened a diamond chest within the Vault of the Dead. This chest required 10 TH keys to open. Inside, I found a huge phoenix lamp, which I used to gain Cooking and Fishing XP.
I went on to complete Daily Challenges in Fletching, Smithing, and Mining.
I crafted 200 rune arrows. Next, I smithed 150 rune arrowheads at the Lumbridge anvil. Then I mined 20 adamantite ores at the southeast Varrock mine. Here I found four geodes, which contained a pair of uncut opals, an uncut sapphire, and a spirit shard. I successfully cut all three gems.
I redeemed these challenges to reach 85 Fletching.
I can now make magic shieldbows. Upon gaining this new skill level, I took a magic log and a bowstring from the Lumbridge Market bank chest. I then carved and strung my first magic shieldbow.

I cremated 10 sets of big bones within a yew log fire west of Lumbridge Market. Next, I smithed 150 rune arrowheads at the Lumbridge anvil. Then I mined 28 gold ores at the mine north of Al Kharid.
I redeemed these challenges to reach 87 Smithing.

Tonight, I completed Daily Challenges in Dungeoneering, Mining, and Prayer.
I used a challenge token to skip the Dungeoneering task. Next, I mined 20 adamantite ores at the southeast Varrock mine. I found one geode containing a spirit shard. After I banked, I chopped a yew log west of Lumbridge Market. Then I teleported into The Wilderness to complete the Prayer challenge.
I headed east from the lodestone and made my way to the Chaos Altar. I have been coming here often over the past three months to gather bones. Tonight, I collected 20 sets of bones, then lit the yew log on fire south of the altar. Within these flames, I cremated these 20 sets of bones to finish my final challenge.
I redeemed these challenges to reach 86 Mining.
I went on to pick up an additional 25 sets of bones. As I moved towards the doorway to the north, with the intention of banking these bones with Simon, suddenly I was not alone.
Standing between me and the only doorway in the chamber was a lesser demon, dressed in a blood red robe with golden arcane symbols woven into the fabric. I said, "Hello?" The demon glared at me as it spoke with a low, menacing tone:
"SO IT IS TRUE. YOU STILL LIVE. I SUSPECTED YOU MIGHT HAVE SURVIVED YOUR PUNISHMENT."
I replied, "Punishment? What punishment? Who are you?"
"DO NOT FEIGN IGNORANCE OF YOUR CRIMES AGAINST DEMONKIND! INFERNUS WILL BE AVENGED."
I did not know what this demon was talking about. Then my mind flashed back to the dream I have had repeatedly - the one where I am somewhere else, some familiar place. I cannot see or move. I can feel the comforting warmth of fire nearby. I can smell smoke. I hear the crackle of the flames. I also hear several voices mixed with laughter. The sounds are not human. They seem demonic. I feel angry and betrayed. I also feel my strength leaving me, along with all my knowledge. It is as though my experience is being ripped from me.
Punishment.

With a firm grip on Arteria, I asked the demon, "So you have found me. What now?"
The demon replied, "NOW YOU MUST BE MADE TO PAY FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE. YOU MUST BE ENDED ONCE AND FOR ALL. TO ENSURE THE SURVIVAL OF INFERNUS, YOU MUST DIE! TO THAT END, I SHALL SUMMON HUNDREDS, NAY THOUSANDS, OF MY BRETHREN TO BRING ABOUT YOUR COMPLETE DESTRUCTION. THIS TIME, THERE WILL BE NO ESCAPE FOR YOU, LADY STRYKE!"
A cloud of dark smoke then appeared behind the demon. I prepared myself for a battle to survive. A familiar-looking hooded figure, clad in purple robes, stepped through the smoke into the chamber. This was the same large shadowy figure I have encountered here twice before! Had this creature searched for me on behalf of this demon?
I soon had my answer - and it was not what I expected.
The demon turned around and screamed "NOOOO!" as the hooded figure quickly drew a long silver sword and stabbed the demon in the chest! With amazing speed, the hooded figure pulled the sword back, then plunged it into the demon's neck. The demon howled and exploded into ashes. However, instead of falling to the floor, the ashes flew towards the hooded figure. An amulet worn by the figure absorbed the ashes like an accursed urn would. The demon's robe was consumed in the explosion. The figure sheathed its sword. It was then that I noticed the figure's hands were claws. Demon claws. The hooded figure was another demon!
The hooded demon bowed to me slightly, then moved to step back through the smoke portal. I shouted, "Wait! Who are you? What the hell is going on?!" As the hooded demon disappeared, I heard it speak:
"ALL HAIL LADY STRYKE - ONCE AND FUTURE WARRIOR QUEEN OF INFERNUS!"
I now have even more questions.
Before I left The Wilderness, I banked all those bones with Simon. I then teleported to Draynor, where I received four medium parcels from Postie Pete. Along with the usual items, I found a 'Forgotten' title scroll. Oh, sweet irony!
Love,
Kat

Over the past few days, I have been attempting to purchase a Bone Master outfit token on the Grand Exchange. I would keep slowly raising my offer, but the sale would not complete.
At the stroke of Midnight tonight, the sale finally went through. I paid 290,927gp for the token.
I redeemed my token to unlock the Bone Master outfit. It is a pretty cool outfit, for the most part. I do not care for the helm, but that is no surprise. I do not like how helms look on my head in general. I usually hide the head slot, regardless of the outfit I am wearing.
Love,
Kat
