Transcript

Standard

Varrock Gets Makeover!

The city of Varrock is the latest recipient of a complete makeover. When interviewed, King Roald said, 'In order to keep visitors coming to see the sights of our beautiful capital, we felt that tidying things up would be more effective than just issuing a decree. Make sure you visit the newly refurbished museum while you are here.'
