I found myself in a void of infinite nothingness.
I tried to think of how I got there. I mean, I did everything right. I skilled. I quested. I helped noobs (sometimes). I gained XP. I trained Slayer. I did bossing ........ oh ....... no .....
I cried out "Death? Harold? Not funny man!" Some time passed. I don't know how long. "C'mon Mr. Reaper. Please? Respawn me?"
It finally dawned on me. Maybe I could teleport out!!! But I checked. I didn't have anything in my inventory. I didn't have my gear. Nothing. Just like the void I was in.
I tried one last thing: Home Teleport. It never failed. I tried it. I drew the circle. I felt the surge of energy. I blinked (I think). But I was still here. In nothingness. Worst, it seems I couldn't teleport again. Ever.
I began to wander around the nothingness. Unsurprisingly, for a very long time, I found nothing.
Then. In the distance. I heard what sounded like muttering. I followed the sound for what felt like ages. It was a person.
Despite the absence of light, I could sort of see him.
"Hey!" I called out to him. It took several tries before I finally got his attention.
"Oh. Hi." he weakly replied.
"Oh good Guthix I finally found someone. Where are we? What is this place?"
He shrugged. "The Pit of Despair."
It wasn't much of an answer. But, it was a start. "Look, uhm, is there a way out of here?"
He shrugged again. This time, I could see he meant 'no'.
"Well. Uh, what is there to do?"
He weakly smiled "Nothing."
"Just nothing?"
He nodded.
"Really. Just ... nothing?"
His smile turned even creepier. "No grinding. No questing. Just ... AFKing. And bank staring."
"Bank staring?"
His smile turned manic. "Oh yes. Just stare into your bbbeeeaaauuutttiiiiifful bank."
I was starting to see where this was going.
