The Armadyl communiqué is a letter delivered by a Guardian of Armadyl, who may randomly appear after satisfying certain conditions similar to the King's Messenger. The contents of the communiqué, written by Idria of the Guardians of Armadyl, differ depending on whether the player thwarted or helped Lucien in stealing the Staff of Armadyl.

The communiqué prompts the player to talk with Ivy Sophista in Taverley to start the quest While Guthix Sleeps, though players need not wait for the communiqué to be delivered to start the quest.

Transcript

The following text is transcluded from Transcript:Armadyl communiqué.

If the player did not give the Staff of Armadyl to Lucien

---

Dear [player name],

My name is Idria. I'm a leader, of sorts, to the Guardians of Armadyl. I'd hoped our first contact would be regarding more pleasant matters, but instead I must inform you of a dire situation that I know you worked hard to prevent.

Despite your efforts in safeguarding the Staff of Armadyl for us, the resourceful Lucien found another route to our beloved treasure.

While Lucien may now have his prize, there is still a chance to put an end to his plots. If you are willing to help, please make haste to Ivy Sophista, our ally in Taverley.

Yours most respectfully,
Idria.

If the player gave the Staff of Armadyl to Lucien

Dear [player name],

Many in my order will heavily question my decision to contact you, but I am left with little choice. My name is Idria. I'm a leader, of sorts, to the Guardians of Armadyl.

I realise that based on your past actions, you likely have little desire to help us with our plight, but I urge to you to heavily consider the contents of this letter.

Thanks to you, Lucien has successfully acquired the Staff of Armadyl. With this treasure, he presents a threat that this world has not seen for millennia, and we alone are not powerful enough to stop him.

I am informed that you stood against the Mahjarrat invasion of Varrock. I implore you to take a similar stance here by reconsidering your alliance with Lucien, for all of Gielinor is at risk.

If you are willing to help us stand against him, please make haste to Ivy Sophista, our ally in Taverley.

Yours most respectfully,

Idria.
