Guy Fawkes Day
From Hellgatewiki.com
This is the second theme event of the game. This event coincides with the celebrations held in England and other countries. The foiled assassination of King James I of England, by Guy Fawkes serves as the basis of the holiday, though many activities not strictly related to the plot are undertaken as part of the celebrations.
Also known as the "Gunpowder Plot", Guy Fawkes and fellow conspirators were caught with barrels of gunpowder, with which they intended to blow up the House of Lords.
The in-game event will run from November 5, 2007 to November 11, 2007.
Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
I know of no reason
Why Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t'was his intent
To blow up King and Parliament.
Three-score barrels of powder below
To prove old England's overthrow;
By God's providence he was catch'd
With a dark lantern and burning match.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, let the bells ring.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!
