Guild Wars

In the spirit of celebration, NCsoft Europe and ArenaNet are inviting 
adventurers on the continent of Cantha to the Guild Wars Factions Dragon 
Festival, a summer festival with all the trimmings!

After the destruction wrought by the Jade Wind, the newly crowned 
Emperor  Hanjai (the eldest son of the assassinated emperor) oversaw the 
settlement of Shing Jea Island and the expansion of Kaineng City. The following 
summer, Emperor Hanjai dedicated a new Dragon Festival to commemorate 
the survival of the Empire of the Dragon.

Participants in the Dragon Festival can join in fun carnival-type games 
(Whack-A-Worm, anyone?), play new mini-missions and special PvP 
gameplay, undertake unique quests, and collect Asian-flavored treats such as red 
bean cakes and rice wine. Ceremonial Dragon Masks will be awarded to 
those players who are able to collect enough globes filled with the Jade Wind 
essence that changed Cantha two hundred year ago. The conclusion of the 
Dragon Festival will be marked with surprises true Canthans wont want to 
miss.

Taking place in and around the Shing Jea Monastery from 07:00GMT, 30 
June and running through to 07:00GMT, 4 July, the Dragon Festival is an 
exclusive weekend event for Guild Wars Factions players.
