The Demonic Ruins, originally known as Annakarl during the rule of Zaros, is a desecrated temple that is located in level 44-48 Wilderness. Players within range of the ruins will have their Prayer points passively recharged. As with all locations in the Wilderness, players can be attacked by other players at any time. The entire area is multicombat.
The ruins are notable for being the only place to find greater demons on free-to-play worlds. Players can use Ranged and Magic attacks to fight the greater demons from safespots. Players using melee combat restock on food at the nearby cage/harpoon fishing spot if they bring logs (or an axe to chop the dead trees) and a tinderbox.
Burnt bones also spawn in various places around the ruins, and members have a singular blood rune spawn on the eastern side.
Getting there
The Annakarl Teleport spell (or its tablet equivalent) can teleport players directly to the ruins. This teleport is helpful for reaching Callisto quickly. The level 50 obelisk will also teleport players reasonable close. Both of these teleports are members-only.
Prayer restoration
The Prayer-restoring area effect is active within a square around the ruins, pictured below. Standing inside this area will restore 1 prayer point every 5 game ticks (3 seconds). When the player is in range to recharge Prayer, a message in the textbox will appear reading A dark and ancient energy is emitted from the ruins granting you faster prayer restoration..
Players can take advantage of the prayer restoration of the ruins by bringing prayer gear, allowing them to use prayers that drain their prayer points slower than the area effect restores them.

Trivia
- There was once a bug where the Teleport to Target spell could cause players to get stuck under a pile of burnt bones, at which point they could not perform any actions. This has since been fixed.
- The location was historically used in by clans, since the area is in the deep Wilderness and is multicombat.
- During the RuneScape 2 beta, the blood rune spawn in the ruins was accessible to both members and free players.
