Mystic Robes

A long-held frustration of the Zamorakian magi, the magical sect of the Children of Shadows, was that Zamorak never came to them. At no point did Zamorak ever set foot on the shores of Ashenfall. This fact is key to understanding the resentful mentality of the shadow mage: they feel a constant undercurrent of abandonment. It also explains why they believe that mystic cloth 'came from Zamorak himself'.

Mystic cloth was only for use by the Archmage and his council. It was not only a sign of standing within Dowdun Reach; it was a sign that you should probably get on with your work. If you heard the hum of mystic cloth behind you, you had better not be doing something untoward.
