In SAGA 8, players are now allowed access to the Dominion World and are invited to help the Dominion race by fighting off the DEM that are currently invading their world. This comes in the form of quests as well as a weekly server event known as the City War, in which players are summoned to defend the fortified city of Westfort. In helping the Dominion world, the players are given Contribution Points, or CP, to use as an alternate currency for certain items in the Dominion world. Also, the Gardener Joint Job is introduced with this SAGA.
