Everyone in the guild is hard at work leveling up and preparing for what's to come. Maple manages to "cheese" her way through a quest to help a sick NPC.

Maple Tree is vastly outnumbered and struggles to stay on the board. As guilds get wiped out left and right, they must face a mighty foe that may be their undoing.

As Christmas draws near, New World Online finally releases Level 4 concurrently with a special holiday event in which rare and exclusive items are at stake.

The main portion of the eighth event begins. The members of Maple Tree work as two teams to try to acquire medals, then come back together to set up a base for protection against the stronger monsters that come out at night.
