West Ardougne



West Ardougne (pronounced "Arr-doyn") is a Pay-to-play city and part capital of the Kingdom of Kandarin. It is only available to people who are up to a point in the Plague City quest where you can enter. It is well known for being badly stricken by a mysterious plague which has been claimed to have been brought into the city on its king's last visit, and also for the Underground Pass. Its neighbouring city, East Ardougne, is a complete opposite, being an extremely wealthy city and a popular one too. Although West Ardougne is governed by King Tyras he left the city just before the "plague" struck to explore the forests of Tirranwn. He is now widely disregarded as a king and the day-to-day running of the city in his absence lies in the hands of a inefficient and drunk city warder, Bravek. Mourners from East Ardougne sent by King Lathas patrol the streets and detain anyone that is affected by the plague.



Entry
There are only a few ways to enter West Ardougne. They are:
 * Enter through the pipeline way after completing parts of the Plague City Quest. (This entrance is still available after completing the Plague City quest.)
 * Climb a rope in the southeast corner after completing parts of the Biohazard Quest. (This entrance is unavailable after completing the Biohazard quest. However, you still can exit over the wall from within West Ardougne.)
 * Upon completing Biohazard, you can pass through the main door from East Ardougne.
 * Come from the west in the Underground Pass (dungeon) from Tirannwn.

Points of Interest
There are some interesting places in West Ardougne to explore:

Civic Office
The Civic Office is the government body of West Ardougne. It is managed by Bravek, and it is in the centre of the city.

General Store
This is just another general store that supplies on normal items. It is operated by Chadwell. The building is located in the south-west of the city. It has decent supplies for a starving city.



Graveyard
A graveyard with a lot of tombstones. Ghosts and Zombies patrol the yard but are quite low-levelled, but make for great role-playing, for you can role-play the plague is real and take cover inside buildings and kill zombies.

Chapel
The Saradomist Chapel of West Ardougne. It is run by a single priest. You can recharge your prayer points here.

Housing Area
A ruined housing area that acts kind of like a maze. It contains a lot of Men, Women, Rats, NPC children and NPC Civilians. A Civilian will buy a cat or overgrown cat from the player for 100 death runes (200 death runes if the player has received Ardougne Cloak 1 from the Ardougne Tasks - the player doesn't need to carry or wear the cloak)

Mourner headquarters and tunnels
The mourner headquarters is a building in the north-eastern part of the city, with many mourners around and in it. The building cannot be entered until during and after the Biohazard quest, and even then only part of the building can be accessed. Various later quests in the Plague quest series allow for greater access to the building and to the Mourner Tunnels that have been dug from the basement. The tunnels give access to Dark beasts, the Mourner Tunnels mine, and the entrance to the Temple of Light.
