Heart of Stone - Elder Gods Quest
(http://cdn.runescape.com/assets/img/external/news/2014/11/heart_of_stone_news_main.jpg)
It's hero vs hero in Heart of Stone: the first quest in RuneScape's new 'Elder Gods' series, and your choice from the Player Power quest poll earlier this year.
Legendary hero Xenia has gone rogue, and Ariane's vowed to take her down. You'll team up with a state-of-the-art tracking golem - whose personality will develop based on your choices.
Ultimately, you'll find out what drove Xenia to murder, and uncover a secret that could change Gielinor forever.
There's Thanksgiving fun to be had from Thursday, too, as the Lumbridge Castle chef's brother needs your help to find his wayward turkeys - there's a new title to earn for doing so.
Read on to find out more!

Once Xenia flees the scene, Ariane will kit you out with a tracking golem named Kipple. You'll need to tune into to the magical teleportation traces left by Xenia, and follow her trail around the world.
You'll visit a number of locations, completing puzzles or battling guardians at each one, uncovering long-lost secrets of the elder gods as you do so.
Succeed in tracking down Xenia and you'll earn a chunk of XP, plus a golem follower pet, whose personality will be defined by the choices you made during the quest.

You'll also have set in motion the events of an all-new quest line - one that'll be right at the core of RuneScape's Sixth Age.
