Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? Or if he asks for a partyhat, will give him a scorpion?

Interesting translation, for there to be a partyhat involved. > )

To keep it 50-50 Bible-Runescape, I think you could reword it like this:

Original message details are unavailable.
Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a blowpipe, will give him a snake instead? Or if he asks for a malediction shard, will give him a scorpion?


...especially since the "Cheerful kingdom of Rimmington" already heavily revolves around partyhats. Which, speaking of that one, it's a clever story in general but I don't think it's appropriate for partyhats. > )

Anja walks on the water - (Matthew 14:22-33)

Cool story but, since it involved fishing trawler and faith, I was half expecting Heron the fishing pet to play a part in it because the base chance is the lowest there. > )



I'd like thousands of manta rays though!

Anja enriches wine of Zamorak - (John 2:1-11)

4A6F6B6B75 said :
A wedding took place at Zamorakian church south of Aubury's Rune Shop in the south-east corner of Varrock. Anja and her sweepers had not been invited to the wedding, but they decided to attend anyway.

But why did they crash the party? > /

Nearby stood six stone jars of wine of Zamorak, the kind used by the herblorists for super ranging potions, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.

Ah, so that's why super range pots are banned in advanced format; they're made from evil Zammy wines! > )

4A6F6B6B75 said :
Anja said, "Let me see", and blessed the wine. The wine had now become perfect. The master of the banquet praised Anja, and everyone started planning a revenge on Zamorak.

What Anja did here in Varrock was the first of the signs through which she revealed her opposition against Zamorak, and her sweepers believed in her.

So with all the hate towards Zamorak, is Anja essentially female Saradomin?

Cheers! Anja got me fishing pet (in RS3), but that's another story 8)

It's a Zamorakian church, so the people that go there are usually Zamorak fanclubbers. This was a clever way to make them turn against Zamorak! By the way… that reminds me of one Arc miniquest where you recruit a black knight to your crew and she becomes ex-black knight!

It's kind of sad that even overloads require extreme ranging potions, which require super ranging potions, which require sad Zamorak wine x(

But, I like to interpret it as bumming boost from Zamorak against his will (as you may have heard: STOP STEALING MY WINE! GAH!).

No, Saradomin is nowhere near Anja. Nothing compares to her. Rimmington church is Saradomin though, so cheers for the free church, Saradomin!

Fixed a copy paste error: Anja is Goddess of Freebies, not God. Sorry Anja!
