A long-held frustration of the Zamorakian magi, the magical sect of the Children of Shadows, was that Zamorak never came to them. At no point did Zamorak ever set foot on the shores of Ashenfall. This fact is key to understanding the resentful mentality of the shadow mage: they feel a constant undercurrent of abandonment. It also explains why they believe that mystic cloth 'came from Zamorak himself'.

Mystic cloth was only for use by the Archmage and his council. It was not only a sign of standing within Dowdun Reach; it was a sign that you should probably get on with your work. If you heard the hum of mystic cloth behind you, you had better not be doing something untoward.

The role of mystic cloth changed when Archmage Alric and Lord Rasmodel agreed to meet an attaché of Imaru and Xikotal. It was some cleric from Emberwood, looking to renew an annual trade agreement.

It was to be a routine meeting, and Alric thought nothing of it. He planned to look at the cleric with disdain and sign the contract provided. But to Alric's scorn, the envoy turned up in mystic cloth. A mystic cloth waistcoat, and a mystic cloth cap, jauntily worn. She was good-natured and jovial, which only made the interaction more painful for Alric.

Alric dared not look at Rasmodel, but he knew that there would be a smirk on that smug face. Alric burned the contract and blasted the envoy off the top of Dowdun Reach. The contract would have to wait.

From that point on, mystic cloth was not reserved for the greatest magi. It was free for any common magi to wear. Alric resolved to wear a different cloth.
