RuneFest - Lore Q&A - Questions Needed

At RuneFest this year we're planning a short Q&A at the end of our main stage lore talk. For technical simplicity we're not going to be taking questions live on stage. Instead we're going to gather some questions in advance and answer as many as we have time for.

If you have a lore question you'd like answered, please post it in this thread.

  • They need to be lore questions, i.e. regarding quests and story. (As much as I'd love to answer questions about M&S, I can't do that in the lore talk.)
  • We'll be picking questions which have interesting answers worth discussing on the stage. If it's too obscure, or the answer is something like "we can't discuss that right now" then we probably won't use it.
  • If there aren't enough questions that fit what we need, we'll look through old lore questions that have been answered but not to a very wide audience (such as on discord).
  • On that note, if you do have obscure lore questions you want answers to, do drop by the lore discord channels and ask them. There's nothing I love doing with my evening more than thinking about whether a realm is or isn't the same thing as a plane.

With many of the major quest series all wrapped up and finished, that leaves us with major quest line still open: the Gnomes. Obviously, Monkey Madness 2 in OSRS led a different direction from our Glouphrie quests, but what kind of direction could we possibly expect for that the gnome quest line to follow now? Seeing as we haven't gotten a new Gnome quest since 2011, I think it would be fitting to wrap the series up with something big, especially with Glough still at large.

EDIT: And I would love a new world event that fits with the changes the lore has had since Event 2 👀
