The Шестая эпоха is the current age of Gielinor. It followed the Fifth Age.

Events

The Sixth Age began with the death of Guthix by the hands of Sliske, which saw the return of the gods, as the Edicts of Guthix were destroyed. It wasn't until a decade later that a group of powerful heroes forged an alliance and reestablished the Edicts.

Dragonwilds

It is in this age that the events of the game begin, with an expedition team setting off to explore the newly rediscovered continent of Ashenfall. However, the expedition team was attacked by dragons, wiping out most of team. The surviving team members, Wise Old Man, Zanik, Doric, Vannaka, and Cathan, set off to explore the continent, setting up base camps as well as building a lodestone so new people can be brought in from the mainland. It is here where the game starts, with the player being teleported into the continent to help slay the dragons.
