Tales From The Seventh Age- Introduction

Tales From The Seventh Age tells the story of the turning point of the Seventh Age. This is an introduction telling of the events of the late Fifth and Sixth Age that leads up to the Seventh Age

The Fifth Age- The Battle of New Annakarl
In the the Year 3825 the forces of Zaros (led by Azzanadra), Saradomin (a coalation led by King Sidthas II of Ardougne and King Dahl of Misthalin), and Zamorak (led by Dov'kis Magis), clashed in the Zarosian city of New Annakarl in the Wildernes. All three sides suffered many casualties. Crux Eqal, noticing that this battle had nearly led to the destruction of Gielinor itself, performed the sacred ritual that summoned Guthix.

Guthix commanded that all non-human intelligant races left Gielinor in the Great Guthixian Emigration. Guthix then destroyed the Stone of Jas and used it to create a barrier to prevent banished races and the gods that were banished from returning. Because of the Elder Dragons death, who Guthix were required to kill, all the Runecrafting Altars and runes were destroyed (also all the undead was de-animated). He also required all religious organization (besides Crux Eqal) to disband.

The Sixth Age
Without Magic, the humans lived in a similar lifestyle of their Fifth Age counterparts, but without magic. In 1672 the printing press was invented, allowing information to be very easily spread. this began a time of extensive technology use leading up to 2027, when the world was in a similar state as the real word was in 2010. It was in an reccession. It was wrecking the enviroment.

But projects led by the government of the Republic of Piscatoris used a huge 78.7 Trillion GP fund to help repair the economy and make the growing nation greener. Other nations followed in their footsteps, and by 2031, the economy was fixed and the nations were now very enviromentally friendly. Where Year 2032 should have been was Year 1 of the Seventh Age.
