I already told you, I never said they obtained the stone in the first place.

the ONLY times the Necrosyrtes encounter the stone, they are drunk on power and are too busy destroying the people using the Stone and everything around the surrounding area. They are cursed. They've given up control.

They, unlike Kerapac who would encounter the stone later on, are far from being in a capacity to help themselves.

Then please tell us how you think Bilrach believed the Godwars ended by the Dragkin?

We have absolutely ZERO lore showing us Dragonkin ended the GWD, but all along every piece of documents and NPCs including gods told us Guthix ended it with the Edicts.

To put it a different way, the Necrosyrtes are the most willing of dragonkin slaves Jas has. They willingly "protect" the stone even though they are painfully bound to it, and are rewarded by getting the power boost that the Dragonkin have as a species so desperately long for.

The stone wasn't in any danger from the Necrosyrtes because the Necrosyrtes didn't resist. Those who did, like Kerapac, didn't follow the stone's pull. They instead endured even more pain whilst trying to find a way to break the curse Jas had placed on them.

I've already said this too.

Bilrach must have been in attendance when someone (probably Zamorak) touched the Stone, triggering the Necrosyrtes' arrival. The Dragonkin do as the curse bids them to, attempt to destroy the false user and everything around them.

Everyone escapes during this, but not before Bilrach is able to identify that the attackers are in fact, Dragonkin.

---

On the flip side. Bilrach was NOT in attendance when Guthix plunged the Sword of Edicts into the ground, thus, there is no reason for Bilrach to believe Guthix, a god who was previously slumbering elsewhere, was involved.

Tales spread from how various factions successfully "won" the God Wars. Like the Wise Old Man, it would not surprise me if Bilrach also held an incorrect account of events.

Your theory is getting more and more conflicting with all kinds of lore we have in RS3 in these 22 years. Nowhere did any lore say any Dragonkin were willing to protect the Stone of Jas. We only heard them jumping for joy and yelling "we are free..." when they destroyed it in the Ritual of the Mahjarrat.

No. They weren't protecting the Stone of Jas willingly. They were enslaved and bound to it, and evidently they didn't seek to get it back when it was stolen and moved over to different locations, but in reality they sought to destroy it. That's the undeniable fact.

"The Necrosyrtes were originally called Syrtes, being one of four Dragonkin factions; the Dactyl, Nodon and Aughra. They wished to prove themselves to the Elder Gods following the Great Revision, but this was halted when Kerapac activated his device and caused Jas to curse them. They were unable to withstand the curse and became crazed for power, relishing in killing those who abused the Stone."

For all of the other Dragonkin races you mention - they would have destroyed the Stone given the chance.

The Necrosyrtes weren't even sane enough to consider it. I'll admit that willing may not have been the correct choice of word, but they were in no position to help themselves.

Now, here's the flip side of that token.

Only the Necrosyrtes, who would chase after the power killing the false users gave them, ever knew where the Stone was.

That means that the other Dragonkin, who would still feel pain whenever the stone was used, had no idea where the stone was because they didn't give into the curse, which would have enabled them to locate it.

Of course they couldn't destroy it and was getting bound and enslaved by it rather. That's why they hated not just Jas and the Stone. They hated everybody related to the Stone and tried to kill all the false gods afterward. They killed V already.

That's the story, not that they were willing to protect the Stone, nor they had anything to do with GWD, let alone ended them.

Its not that hard to understand how the Dragonkin weren't able to help themselves when you understand that.

They either.

> Found the stone but were being completely affected by the curse and instead focused on attacking the False User or causing massive destruction.

> or kept their sanity but weren't in the vicinity of the Stone to be able to destroy it.
