This video provided a ton of context that peftectly supports an item design I didn't know I needed: Necromancy=Shadow=Erebus Banite=fossilized shadow leviathan blood And dragonkin experimenting with shadow anima. The item: a t90 super d-fire shield involving the Rot6 shields and a baneite based mounting bracket for the draconic visage.

I had no clue about banite ore! So many things going on in the background

In osrs's Desert Treasure 2 quest, the shadow realm pops up before you fight the Whisperer. There are 2 items that "Help to protect you from the influence of the Shadow Realm", the Shadow Blocker (some kind of lamp thing) and the Revitalizing Idol which is a flower in a jar. The Revitalizing Idol is weird as it's just nature in a jar but that's basically like an Idol to Guthix! Maybe Guthix/Nature can repel shadow?

So the shadow is from somewhere else, and it slowly fills up the universe up to even Gelinor. What if the point of the Elder God cycle is to actually either clear out the shadow, or "move" to a new place in the universe not yet corrupted by shadow. This would likely be tied into the reason the elder gods must die and be reborn, such as maybe they are trying to either cleanse themselves of the shadow that slowly corrupts them as they live in an area it has infested, or evolve into beings that can handle/resist/control it. Maybe this also is tied into the reason why they keep wiping out life and rebuilding it, hoping to create life that can do it instead of them, so that they either control that life or assimilate it to obtain that ability. That would actually lead to a big plot point in the future, that Guthix actually was their great success, though if they know it or not is unclear. Guthix infused the World guardian with Shadow, which is why we were immune to the Divine Anima of the Gods letting us fight against them. Our Soul is part shadow and as it is the antithesis of Gods magic, their spells would be repelled by it rendering us nearly completely immune. In this Theory, Guthix was the great success of their plan, a being who could control shadow. But he failed in that he was too kind and died. But he left a successor, a being who is now part anima and part shadow, the World guardian. "do you really think you can save them", well, we may be the only being in the universe who even could stand a chance. The gods may be forced to ally again, and maybe even the elder gods too, to pour power into the World guardian, who can convert it into shadow power to fight against the Shadow leviathans.
