Paddewwa Today: That spell is gone; replaced by the lodestone network

New page

[[File:Edge update.png|thumb|left|The approximate location of Paddewwa as it appears today, right in Edgeville.]] '''Paddewwa''' was a fortress in the massive domain of [[Zaros]]. Following Zaros's defeat, it was destroyed.

==History==

Little is known of Paddewwa. Geographically, it was in approximately the same area as modern-day [[Edgeville]]. During its existence, Paddewwa was a mighty military fortress, not far from the North-west edge of [[Senntisten]] (which was roughly in the area of [[Varrock]]). Its exact purpose is something of a mystery, as Zaros held absolute power in nearly all of what is now [[Asgarnia]], [[Misthalin]], and the [[Wilderness]]. This puts Paddewwa near the centre of Zaros's main kingdom, meaning it was unlikely to see military conflict. Proposed reasons for its existence suggest that it was more of a symbolic settlement or that it also served as a residence for citizens: or that it was an early settlement in Zaros's kingdom.

Following the betrayal of Zaros at the hands of [[Zamorak]], the [[God Wars]] began, and the kingdom of Zaros fell at the hands of many races and religious factions. Paddewwa was amongst the settlements destroyed by the forces of Saradomin during the God Wars and its original appearance can be seen in "Armies of Gielinor: Saradomin Strikes campaign" in the Paddewwa level.

==Paddewwa Today==

In the beginning of the Year 169 of the [[Fifth Age]], [[King Roald]] of [[Varrock]] had the area incorporated as the town of [[Edgeville]]. For some time, ruins had stood at the location of Paddewwa, known to those of Misthalin as the "Ghost Town". Whether or not these were the ruins of Paddewwa is unknown, and it is possible they were the remains of a much later settlement. A small crypt can be found at the south of the town, which may be the only standing part of Paddewwa.

Those with the knowledge of [[Ancient Magicks]] can utilise a Zarosian spell that teleports the user to Edgeville Dungeon, where Paddewwa once stood, having 54 Magic, and using 2 Law Runes, 1 Air Rune and 1 Fire Rune.

The name Edgeville was most likely given due to the fact that it was right on the edge of the Wilderness and/or Varrock.
