'''West Ardougne''' ([[Pronunciation|pronounced]] "Arr-doyn"{{CitePostbag|url=http://services.runescape.com/m=rswiki/en/Postbag_35|issue=35|letter=4|title=But how do you pruh-nounce Rell-doh?|name=postbag|date=00:01, June 26, 2011 (UTC)}}) is a [[Pay-to-play]] city and part capital of [[Kandarin|the Kingdom of Kandarin]]. It is only available to people who are up to a point in the [[Plague City]] quest where you can enter. It is well known for being badly stricken by a mysterious plague which has been claimed to have been brought into the city on its king's last visit, and also for the [[Underground Pass (dungeon)|Underground Pass]]. Its neighbouring city, [[East Ardougne]], is a complete opposite, being an extremely wealthy city and a popular one too. Although West Ardougne is governed by [[King Tyras]] he left the city just before the "plague" struck to explore the forests of [[Tirranwn]]. He is now widely disregarded as a king and the day-to-day running of the city in his absence lies in the hands of a inefficient and drunk city warder, [[Bravek]]. Mourners from [[East Ardougne]] sent by [[King Lathas]] patrol the streets and detain anyone that is affected by the plague.

==Entry==
There are only a few ways to enter West Ardougne. They are:
*Enter through the pipeline way after completing parts of the [[Plague City]] Quest. (This entrance is still available after completing the Plague City quest.)
*Climb a rope in the southeast corner after completing parts of the [[Biohazard]] Quest. (This entrance is unavailable after completing the Biohazard quest. However, you still can exit over the wall from ''within'' West Ardougne.)
*Upon completing [[Biohazard]], you can pass through the main door from [[East Ardougne]].
*Come from the west in the [[Underground Pass (dungeon)]] from [[Tirannwn]].

==Points of Interest==
There are some interesting places in West Ardougne to explore:

===Civic Office===
{{main|Civic Office of West Ardougne}}

The Civic Office is the government body of West Ardougne. It is managed by [[Bravek]], and it is in the centre of the city. [[File:West Civic Building.png|thumb|240px|right|The Civic Office.]]

===General Store===
{{main|West Ardougne General Store}}
This is just another [[general store]] that supplies on normal items. It is operated by [[Chadwell]]. The building is located in the south-west of the city. It has decent supplies for a starving city.

[[File:West Graveyard.png|thumb|left|Rotting zombies roam the spooky graveyard.]]

===Graveyard===
A graveyard with a lot of tombstones. [[Ghost (monster)|Ghosts]] and [[Zombie]]s patrol the yard but are quite low-levelled, but make for great role-playing, for you can role-play the plague is real and take cover inside buildings and kill zombies.

===Chapel===
[[File:West Chapel.png|thumb|right|The holy chapel.]]
The [[Saradomin|Saradomist]] Chapel of West Ardougne. It is run by a single [[Priest (West Ardougne)|priest]]. You can recharge your prayer points here.

===Housing Area===
[[File:West Housing.png|thumb|right|The battered houses of West Ardougne.]]
A ruined housing area that acts kind of like a maze. It contains a lot of [[Men]], [[Women]], [[Rat]]s, NPC children and NPC [[Civilian]]s. A [[Civilian]] will buy a [[cat]] or [[overgrown cat]] from the player for 100 [[death rune]]s (200 death runes if the player has received Ardougne Cloak 1 from the Ardougne Tasks - the player doesn't need to carry or wear the cloak)

===Mourner headquarters and tunnels===
The mourner headquarters is a building in the north-eastern part of the city, with many mourners around and in it. The building cannot be entered until during and after the [[Biohazard]] quest, and even then only part of the building can be accessed. Various later quests in the [[Plague quest series]] allow for greater access to the building and to the [[Mourner Tunnels]] that have been dug from the basement. The tunnels give access to [[Dark beast]]s, the [[Mourner Tunnels mine]], and the entrance to the [[Temple of Light]].

===Facilities===
*An [[anvil]] in the north of the city.
*A [[range]] in a north-eastern building. This can only be accessed after the [[Biohazard]] quest.
*A [[sink]] in the same and area and with the same requirements as the range.
