my theory: (the chronology of the arrivals of different gods in gielinor. I managed to consider major dieties, minor deities, gods of the desert and others)
1)guthix found runescape plane and created gielinor (the world) after what he went to sleep
2)then came zaros and saradomin, bandos and armadyl. (zaros is evil / saradomin is good, bandos is war / armadyl is order)
they created (in my opinion) their own races and minion, instored religions
3) after the gods of the desert came on gielinor: they simbolised nature. tumeken is the sun, and elidinis is life. they chose the desert as this place was where people most needed them. they got a son and a daughter: ichlatrin (god of the dead) and amascut, the devourer who turned into the "bad god" of the desert
4) i spose tumeken's dream happened now. did he really create the four minor deities ? why not.
5) now comes the mahjarrat, at the end of the second age. bla bla bla, you know what happen: the tribe is controled by ic*latrin, then by zaros. BUT zamorak killed zaros and so achieved godhood. (saradomin was good, but who was bad ? now zaros was killed... balanced needed to be restored and zamorak took the place of zaros, becoming the evil god)
6) the mahjarrat was divided during the god wars: most of them died, the demainders either followed zamorak, the actual evil god, or zaros, the ancient evil god. (so the mahjarrat was never any good lol)
zamorak, being a god, wanted to control the world and began war against saradomin. (bad against good) Bandos (god of war ) went to fight too and so did armadyl (order)
7) we start with guthix ? and finish with him too: he had been sleeping for a long time when the gods war awoke him: seeing the disaster he wrote a law saying that gods war had to take place in god planes (not on runescape). gods left gielinor and their minions waited, turning in ice.
8) end of the god wars. only the wilderness remains as a proof
