Chapter two (HPRS)

With time came wisdom, knowledge, power, and perspective... all of which were truly invaluable traits and should be widely sought out. Harry was idiotic to simply desire the death of one god... all of those who were unstable or ill-intentioned needed to die. Zaros, Saradomin, Bandos, and Marimbo were such gods. The first three just wanted to engage in measuring contests with their powers, armies, and empires sizes. Gielinor didn't need any gods holding them back; its inhabitants needed mere guidance and protection from the true threats. The Mahjarrat were mostly unstable, chaotic, and full of bloodlust and would have to be dealt with too... Harry was even forced to embrace his former humanity from his life to become what Gielinor and the universe needed.
Harry did the seemingly unthinkable...
He had arranged for the Stone of Jas and the Hammer to come into Zamorak's possession and Harry was still tracking Zamorak, the artifacts, and all of his followers for good measure. It was a daring and somewhat risky plan, but it would end with Zamorak killing Zaros or at least weakening him for Harry to finish off. The arrogant Zamorak would draw power from the Stone, empowering Kalibath and the other Dragonkin, would acquire power that Harry would drain; allowing Harry to gain even further power, and he would do all of the grunt work for Harry. Zamorak took all of the risk for ultimately nothing. His followers would all be captured for later sacrifice and his allies slaughtered.
A god of chaos was something that no race, world, or universe ever needed.
Harry sensed Zaros' power wither and vanish and made his move...
Harry teleported in, observed the situation, very pleased with Zaros' weakened and fleeing state and stripped Zamorak of both Elder Artifacts before binding Zamorak, Hazeel, Enakhra, Zemouregal, Viggora, Lowerniel Drakan, and Thammaron.
"Traitors and chaotic vermin have no place in this world," Harry said coldly, looking directly at Zamorak and wielding the Siphon. "You, little god, shall die now..." Having said that, Harry swiftly executed Zamorak while absorbing his power... a little trick that quickly put Harry beyond Zaros and Guthix in power by taking all of Zamorak's power.
"We failed Lord Zaros, Lord Haraldr," Azzanadra admitted hatefully, glaring at the treasonous Mahjarrat.
"Yes, but his death was avenged and my power is now sufficient too kill all the other gods, and the demons, Vampyres, werewolves, Mahjarrat, and the followers of the gods. Our disloyal kin shall be sacrificed and the Vampyres and demons banished back to their worlds or will fight loyally against our enemies. Zaros' death is perhaps the greatest tragedy Gielinor has ever experienced... he wanted too unite the world and better it for all. His sole mistake was trusting vermin like Vampyres and demons."
"I feel that Lord Zaros is alive," Azzanadra pointed out.
"Until we can locate and restore him then we need too continue normally... I sense that our enemies are all aware of his death via the energy he emitted fading and will be moving too claim responsibility. I suggest that we all use our shared memories and project the truth into everyone's minds." Azzanadra nodded in agreement, seeing the wisdom in that. "I will be assassinating Bandos and Marimbo, and claiming that we received bad intelligence from an undiscovered traitor that Bandos was partly responsible and had seduced and manipulated Marimbo into unwittingly aiding him. It will show Saradomin and Armadyl that we can kill them too."
"Why not claim that Saradomin was the one framed and kill him?" Wahisietel asked.
"Because Bandos loves war, violence, death, suffering and feeling powerful... Saradomin has a good public image that many fall for and would be difficult too frame. Marimbo is a drunken beast with divinity that likes too lay with higher life-forms and could be easily painted as an unwitting pawn. Both aren't very popular and would be unmissed... it's a calculated move that unfortunately leaves the bigger threats alive. Armadyl can be reasoned with, but Saradomin is a zealot and a rabid dog that needs to be put down." Harry replied, and Sliske was impressed that his elder brother and mentor in manipulation and strategy was still teaching him something.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using his Cloak of Invisibility, an Elder Artifact, Harry easily assassinated Bandos and Marimbo and then called a meeting between himself, Saradomin, Armadyl, and Seren. With his recent actions of invading the minds of everybody in Gielinor, most were paranoid and outright afraid, but Saradomin was confident that he and Armadyl would escape or slay Haraldr. None were aware of Harry's secret arrangement with Seren for the return of the World Gate.
They all agreed too meet in a neutral place with no strategic value, but with plenty of innocents too reduce their willingness too sacrifice them all.
"Lady Seren, welcome," Harry greeted politely.
"Thank you, Lord Haraldr," Seren returned, optimistic about this meeting.
"Lord Armadyl," Harry greeted.
"Lord Haraldr," Armadyl replied, not actually minding the God of Magic, Death, Fire, Water, the Sky, Storms, Weather, Knowledge, Strategy, War, Battle, Ambition, and Restraint. Haraldr hadn't given Armadyl any reason too despise him.
Saradomin arrived minutes later, having let Armadyl risk his life first.
"Saradomin," Harry greeted, showing him no respect.
"Why have you called this meeting, Mahjarrat?" Saradomin spat in distaste.
"Well, Butcher of the Naragi..." Harry returned, causing Armadyl and Seren too look at Saradomin in shock and distaste. "Yes, I'm aware of your murderous, greedy, and power obsessed nature. In fact, the crimes of us gods are why I've called this meeting. This world has been scarred by our feuds for power, worship, and territory and if we are left unchecked then this world and everything upon it will die."
"Then let me have Gielinor and I'll save it from itself by bringing order, wisdom, and good to its inhabitants lives..." Saradomin began.
"You and Zaros are the worst offenders," Harry pointed out. "You want everyone to follow your idiotic beliefs and worship you, and Zaros wants the world under his control."
"I'm not abandoning Gielinor or my followers," Saradomin said firmly. "If that's your intention then I will fight you until the end!"
"Gods need too quit engaging in combat in inhabited worlds. We can all destroy worlds and we are nothing compared to the Elder Gods who can easily destroy galaxies." Harry replied, too Armadyl's concern and Saradomin's scorn. "Did you think that their artifacts, all of excellent design and creation, were all purely accidental? We are our own and our followers worst enemies. I'm not proposing abandonment though."
"I'm proposing that we occupy residences and only answer prayers, offer blessings, and hold no empires or kingdoms. Having followers and worshippers in power would be acceptable, but most gods have caused death and suffering while expanding their influence. Again, Zaros and Saradomin were the worst offenders with the Menophites being a close third, but their sins died with them." Harry finished, countering Saradomin.
"That is a fair offer and it would safeguard the weaker races," Armadyl admitted.
"If I were too refuse?" Saradomin asked angrily.
"Then the sole surviving Naragi, named Guthix, will be awakened... you won't like that. He's as powerful as myself, Zaros, and Seren. Your dangerous followers will be exiled and you will be destroyed and stripped of your power. You will eventually be forgotten, but only after your sins are exposed and your former followers destroy all memory of you as an act of contrition. All you've proven is that you are only interested in power, worship, and the validation of your deluded belief that you have a divine right too rule by your sycophants."
Learning of Guthix required decades of research and travel by Harry, but he wasn't displeased with the acquired knowledge or its results... Saradomin was intimidated and he was plotting to leave and return with more Elder Artifacts and soldiers and kill the other gods and all their followers. Unfortunately, Harry decided that it would be funny if any ill-intentioned thoughts were unhideable and exposed.
Seren and Armadyl were glaring at Saradomin and Harry was smirking at him.
"You know, Saradomin. As a security measure any ill-intentioned thoughts are broadcasted to the entire room." Harry said, gloating. Saradomin rose and tried too attack, but was forced back down into his seat and had his powers suppressed. "That was quite stupid... you will leave here a mortal with no divinity."
"How will you manage that?!" Saradomin asked mockingly.
"Ah, a history lesson. There are six Elder Gods and they have created several revisions of existence, with Freneskae having previously been a perfect world until it was fed upon for its Anima... like they intend to do for Gielinor. When an Elder God doesn't consume sufficient it becomes mentally and physically stunted... one of the barely surviving Elder Gods created several beings among which were the Mahjarrat and Seren and Zaros. Both Zaros and Seren were given impressive powers... as was I. I can absorb energy without limit and evolve without limit."
"Enough history, Saradomin. It's time too save Gielinor from a tyrant." With that said, Harry absorbed Saradomin's power into himself and then bound him in chains.
"What of his followers?" Armadyl asked.
"His evil will be exposed and his followers offered a chance at redemption, but any who refuse can be exiled. After that I hope too erect barriers around Gielinor too protect it and limit intervention from other gods. The Vampyres and Demons will also be banished
