'''Wahisietel''' is a [[Mahjarrat]] and one of the few to still be loyal to [[Zaros]], according to [[Zemouregal]]'s notes. He disguised as Ali the Wise and prepared for the forthcoming ritual by gathering information on the recent activities of his fellow Mahjarrat, with various hints indicating that this could be the case. For example, "Ali the Wise" is an anagram of "Wahisietel". He has been allied with [[Azzanadra]] for years, and his knowledge is well regarded among the Mahjarrat. He is first encountered during [[Tale of the Muspah]], where he can be found researching a [[Muspah]] statue, and tells the player of the legendary Muspah. Afterwards, he plays a major role in [[The Curse of Arrav]] and [[Ritual of the Mahjarrat]]. He also has a minor role in [[Temple at Senntisten]].
==Quests==
===Research of the Muspah===
Wahisietel (under his Ali the Wise alias) is first encountered during the [[Tale of the Muspah]] quest, where he is found in the desert researching a recently uncovered [[Muspah]] statue. He explains to the player that the [[Muspah]] is a Mahjarrat folktale, and that it does not actually exist. Still, he is very interested by the players find, and gives them information on how to unfreeze it. After the quest, he can be found in Nardah, and is very eager to "learn" more information on the [[Mahjarrat]].

===The Retrieval of Arrav's Heart===
During the [[Curse of Arrav]], Ali the Wise enlists the player to investigate a newly discovered cavern at the peak of [[Trollweiss Mountain]] which he believes to lead directly under the Mahjarrat [[The North|Ritual Site]]. They turn out to actually be a tunnel created by the Mahjarrat [[Lamistard]], and lead to the cellar of [[Zemouregal]]'s fortress. The player encounters [[Arrav]] there, and Arrav leads the player to some plans of [[Zemouregal's Base]]. Ali the Wise decides to use the plans to retrieve [[Arrav's heart]] from the base, which he can use to break Arrav free from Zemouregal's control. The player is able to retrieve [[Arrav's heart]] from the base, and Ali the Wise rewards the player.

===The Restoration of Senntisten===
Ali the Wise has a small role in [[Temple at Senntisten]], he directs the player to his friend [[Azzanadra|Dr Nabanik]], the alias of his ally [[Azzanadra]], to help renovate a Zarosian temple at the Digsite.

===The 18th Ritual of Rejuvenation===
During the The Ritual of the Mahjarrat quest, Ali The Wise sides with the forces trying to stop [[Lucien]]. He accompanies the player, [[Sir Tiffy Cashien]], [[Idria]], [[Akrisae]], a battalion of [[Temple Knights]], and members of the [[Crux Eqal]] on a mission to the Mahjarrat Ritual site in [[Ghorrock]] to stop Lucien's plans to become a God during the 18th [[Ritual of Rejuvenation]].

[[File:Ali's Identity.png|left|thumb|It's Wahisietel!]]

In the route to the ritual site, the group is stopped by [[General Khazard]], who reveals that Ali is really the Mahjarrat, Wahisietel, in disguise and proceeds to attack them. Wahisietel fights off the General's forces and forces Khazard to retreat. Once they reach the ritual site, they are confronted by Lucien, who engages Wahisietel in a duel while the rest of the party is distracted with Lucien's enchanted [[enhanced ice titan]]s and [[Ice demon (Ritual of the Mahjarrat)|ice demons]]. The group is almost defeated but is then saved by the timely arrival of Wahisietel's brother<ref>''"Good luck with that, my brother"'' -[[Sliske]]</ref> [[Sliske]], who summons the [[Barrows Brothers]] to ward off the ice beasts.

When the ritual begins, Wahisietel demands that Lucien be sacrificed because of the danger he poses to [[Gielinor]] but is ignored by the rest. When Lucien declares that he will choose the sacrifice because he is the most powerful and then demands that [[Jhallan]] be sacrificed, Wahisietel steps in and once again says that Lucien must be the sacrifice to stop his ascension to Godhood. Upon saying this, he attacks Lucien, sparking a battle between the Zarosian and Zamorakian Mahjarrat. When Lucien abandons [[Zemouregal]] while he's being attacked by [[Azzanadra]] and [[Arrav]], Zemouregal turns on him and convinces every other Mahjarrat to do the same, prompting them all to attack Lucien.

When the ritual begins, the fighting stops and Jhallan is sacrificed to rejuvenate the rest. After Lucien is killed by the [[Dragonkin (race)|Dragonkin]], Wahisietel is one of the only two Mahjarrat to not teleport away in terror (the other being [[Sliske]]). Wahisietel thanks the player for their help in stopping Lucien and declares that he will return to [[Nardah]] before leaving in order to let the player, [[Thaerisk]] and Sir Tiffy hide the [[Stone of Jas]] where nobody will ever find it again.

==Postbag from the Hedge==
In the 47th [[Postbag from the Hedge]], Wahisietel answers some questions asked by a player regarding Freneskae.

{{cquote2|Dear Wahisietel
As a friend and ally, i thought you might be able to help answer a few questions i had about the Mahjarrat. What was it like back on Freneskae? Is it really as a hellish and brutal place as the other Mahjarrat describe? Are there any Mahjarrat still in Freneskae?
Do you know why Kharshai did not attend the last ritual?

{{cquote2|Dear Dragon kin,
It's good to talk without a disguise! I'm no Sliske - I've got no skills in misdirection and disguises - so it's refreshing to talk frankly. I can spare some time to answer your questions, and, my word, there are quite a few of them...

The Mahjarrat will probably give you differing perspectives of Freneskae. Zamorak talked about it all the time, cursing the order and balance of Gielinor. Sliske had a better grasp on the Shadow Realms of Freneskae than he does here. No doubt, he'd give you a good account of Freneskae. As for me? It was different. Our birthplace had you battling the elements, the thick magical currents, the migrating beasts. It could reduce a Mahjarrat to tears, pounding the slate ground with your fists. But here - while the world is kinder (or more malleable, if you're of that mind) - the lack of an opponent makes Mahjarrat fight one another. We are creatures of Freneskae, and we live for the even fight. That fight just has to be with each other.

No Mahjarrat remain on Freneskae, as far as I am aware. We came here together, promised the spectacle of great battles and sport. Kharshai was the most visibly excited by the prospect of Gielinor (many of the weaker Mahjarrat were), yet he was quick to disappear. His neutrality has likely saved him: without the potential of being a friend or enemy, few have searched for him. But, there is a ritual in the future with his name on it - once the Zamorakian lifeblood is felt in my veins, of course.|Wahisietel
