Ya you can just add more money. I personally just start off at 1.5M or 3M and keep in there until it drops to 750k. Keeping it in there for 20 days, maximizes your bonus rewards, like bird's nests. The other 775k I believe he wanted you to take out, or add to it to make 1M.
Technically Dharoks, Guthans and Torags have same defense. People just choose to buy Torags for that specific reason, because it's cheapest. Cyclopses?
Dungeons don't have to be necessarily close to each other above ground, to be "close" to each other underground. They do that to save space most likely, instead of having an entire map of underground RS, mostly filled with black.
No, the pay-fare option is supposed to be like that. It skips a portion of the beginning chat. It cannot skip all the chat because they have to check you for "illegal items", mainly karamja rum for the quest. Correct me if I'm wrong on this one. Congratz on the rune med.
Try experiments in bottom of Fenkenstein's Castle, Rock Crabs or Pest Contrl if you can find good worlds. Or if you want, you could also just do slayer tasks.

It depends on how much WC you plan to do IMO. If you just cut magics for a little bit of cash or yews, then rune axe would be fine. But if you're doing hardcore powerleveling on willows, or cutting several thousand magics or yews, then it would be nice to have it.
You get spices from hellrats from Evil Dave's basement just like in the subquest for Recipe for Disaster, and add them to stew. Different colours give different effects. I believe the number added, contributes to how much +/- you get. It's completely random though.
