As I walked down the hall in total darkness, all of a sudden I saw light leaking out from under the door at the end of the hallway and the familiar hum of the computer. I opened the door to the room and saw the computer logged on to Runescape on my account. This was odd, because usually when Runescape is inactive for 60 seconds it logs off.
I thought less of that fact and more of how I had shut off the computer. I thought that maybe I hadn't clicked shut down and just pressed the power button; which just brings up the shut down window. But I know I had at least closed out the Runescape window.
Upon further inspection of the computer, I noticed that my character was walking around and attacking goblins. I sat down on the computer chair and laid my hand on the mouse and clicked on a space on the ground. As per usual, my character walked to the space I clicked on.
I swiveled on my chair and thought about the situation. I swiveled back around on my chair and my character, Duh Masto1 had somehow gotten close to the computer screen and he waved at me. I waved back very slowly, stunned that my Runescape character apparently was a conscious being on some level.
I saw his mouth moving and remembered my speakers were switched off so I turned them onto a low volume
"- must be a surprise that I am talking to you, but all Runescape characters can."
I spoke back to him. " But why haven't any other RS characters talked yet?"
He responded, "Well, we have spoken before, but all other times anyone heard us, they told someone and they thought they were crazy."
"I understand why…" I said.
"Hey, why are you talking to me anyway?"
"Because I, nay, WE need your assistance."
"Why me?" I asked. "Better yet, who is 'we'?"
"Us."
Then, the most incredible assemblage of RS characters, bearing the best armor and weapons, amulets, rings, and other items, were gathered in Varrock square.
It was truly an awesome display of might. But, as I looked further back, I saw the human NPCs with a holy alignment, less powerful users, and allllllll the way in the back, I saw Zezima; in all her lvl126 glory and power, apparently leading the troops.
I stammered out a "Why did you choose me?"
Then the king of Varrock made his way to the front
"Because you are the only one who can."
