The Great Battle
From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape
The Great Battle was a conflict fought in the Year 68 of the Fifth Age.
The battle was held at the Outpost north of Ardougne, between a small number of Zamorakian and Saradominist forces. The Zamorakians had terrorized Ardougne for some time, their attacks causing the "Dreaded Years of Tragedy".
Ultimately, neither side was victorious, and the only survivors were the leaders of each side, men who had been former companions. Agreeing to follow Guthix, one went on to become the founder of Ardougne market and the other became the first king in the Ardignas line, which continues today under the rules of King Lathas and King Tyras.
The name of the battle is believed to be vague because little was known of the battle, as only two survived.
