        <![CDATA[<p>I'm sure you all are wondering where the new content is and when the stat renewal update is coming.    We have seen several delays while working on the latest update which have set us back a few months now.   Our operations team has been working around the clock on updates for all of our NCsoft products and they continue to be incredibly busy.  The good news is that we are bringing on a dedicated Lineage operations team member from Korea who is experienced in working with content updates for the game.  </p>

<p>What does this mean for Lineage?  It is going to take us some more time before we will be able to bring this update to you.   In the short term, we are going to move forward with the events that we have been planning and these will now be happening before the content update.  We have begun work on the Karma event and are about to start planning for the next Boss Island event.  We are planning both of these events for the summer months and will let you know as soon as we can what dates these will occur. </p>

<p>We'd like to thank you all for your continued patience with this matter and hope that you'll all take part in the upcoming events that we are working on.  Thank you!<br />

    <summary>Friday the 13th has been considered to be an unlucky day before there was even a movie about it. In the year 2009, we will encounter this sinister day and date combination three times which only happens once every 11 years. Today, March 13th 2009, marks the second month in a row with our next Friday the 13th coming in November. Many people have phobias about traveling on this day and others won&apos;t conduct business out of fear of bad luck. A combination of the number 13 and Friday being considered the most unlucky day of the week causes varying degrees paraskevidekatriaphobia - the irrational fear of Friday the 13th. There are stories surrounding this day that date all the way back to Norse mythology. Is Friday the 13th truly an unlucky day? Find out on Monday.......</summary>

        <![CDATA[<p>Rudolph has lost his antlers and needs you to help him get them back!  An evil Orc hunter ruined Christmas this year by cutting off Rudolph's antlers and scaring him away.  Santa was unable to deliver any presents without his trusty reindeer so he wants you to help him get Rudolph back.  Santa tried to hide his presents while he looked for Rudolph but an evil Abominable Snowman stole his presents away from him.  Now Rudolph cannot fly with out his antlers and Santa doesn't have any presents, so you need to hunt down these two evil creatures to make things right!</p>

<p>Prove yourself to Rudolph by tracking down the evil orc hunter and bringing proof of your victory back to Rudolph who is waiting in Giran.  If you can do this during the first week of the Winter Festival, then all during the second week Rudolph will grant you a magical blessing!  You may share Rudolph's love with other worthy players so that they too can receive Rudolph's magical blessing.   Keep an eye out for the Abominable Snowman, the evil monster who took all of Santa's presents!  Only those who hunt down the snowman will have a chance at obtaining some of the stolen Christmas presents.  </p>

<p>Santa will be in Oren Town all throughout the festival selling his gently used Christmas Trees, Christmas cards, and some powerful temporary armor (Belt, Ring, and Amulet) so that he can raise enough money to buy himself a Reindeer tracker so that he will never miss Christmas again!</p>

<p>The Lineage Winter Festival 2009 will begin on January 28th and last until February 11th!<br />
