Fief
From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape
The Fief is the being or entity that mints coins, according to previous issues of the God Letters [1] [2]. He does not give more detail as to who or what a fief is, but judging from the meaning of "fief" it is likely to be one of the human kingdoms (e.g. Misthalin).
Apparently, different fiefs are responsible for producing their respective kingdom's currency. This may be a joke on Jagex's part, because a feif is a grant of money from a king to a vassal, and it is printed money(not how money is minted from). However, the literal definition of 'fief' is 'a piece of land held under the feudal system'. Therefore, it is likely that when 'fief' is mentioned, it refers to one of the human kingdoms.
