Missing, Presumed Death

Missing, Presumed Death is a future quest scheduled for release in October 2013. It will follow the Mahjarrat Sliske and the events centred around him following the assassination of Guthix. The quest is also to feature Icthlarin and the Guardian of Guthix Death, revealing more about them and their relationship, as well as an as-yet-unknown elf. It will explore the features of the Grim Underworld, and how Sliske acquired the staff of Armadyl from the Dragonkin trio last seen attacking Edgeville. The quest begins in Silvarea, west of Paterdomus, where the mysterious murders that occurred since Harold's disappearance must be investigated.

In the Above The Lore podcast for Missing, Presumed Death, it was stated that the first part of the quest will center around the disappearance of Death, and Icthlarin's attempts to take over his role until he is found.

Trivia

 * The quest's title is a pun on the classification "missing, presumed dead" used for people who have been missing and are most likely to have died. It was likely changed to "death" because Harold Death Esquire is most commonly referred to as Death.
