Sixth Age

The Sixth Age began with the death of Guthix at the hands of the Zarosian Mahjarrat Sliske during the events of The World Wakes. With his death, the Edicts of Guthix put in place at the end of the God Wars are no longer in effect, allowing for the return of Gods to Gielinor and for their respective plans to be put in motion. Saradomin was the first of these gods to return.



With the beginning of the new age, a new Guardian of Guthix was chosen, to shape the world as they see fit, either by fulfilling Guthix's final wish of a world without gods, siding with a god of their choice, or striving for godhood themselves.

Shortly following his death, Kaqemeex spread news to the other druids of Taverley. Thus the Tribute to Guthix began, as a way to honour but not worship the late god. Eventually the Gielinorians succeeded in creating the Tribute stone, a prayer altar and small obelisk made from more than 100,000 pieces of Rune and Pure essence in honour of Guthix's passing.

Following the removal of the Edicts, warbands in the Wilderness have found faith and focus. Quercus arrives at the Wilderness Wall in Edgeville to dispatch adventurers to restore the balance by plundering the Wilderness Warbands.

As a player is able to complete The World Wakes before having completed Quests such as Ritual of the Mahjarrat and subsequently While Guthix Sleeps, many previous quests are confirmed to have taken place in the past, with a message appearing at the start of each quest informing the player as such.

Having only just begun, there are few events written in the Sixth Age. Despite that, there is a terrible sense of uncertainty within the world. While Saradomin's arrival is considered a blessing to the humans, the death of Guthix and the arrival of the dragonkin and their rampage throughout Gielinor will prove to be a daunting task for the followers as Crux Eqal is forced to deal with not one but three bitter defeats.
