At this moment, the town square was already packed with people. Not just Pelican Town residents, but also tourists from other places. Everyone had gathered in front of a small display stage.
Squeezing through the crowd with Abigail, Leon finally made it to the front, where he saw Lewis standing on the platform. Beside him were several baskets woven from vines.
“First, welcome everyone to Pelican Town to participate in our annual Easter celebration! In this traditional festival that celebrates the revival of all things, we can’t do without our signature Easter Egg Hunt. Now, will all registered participants please come up on stage? If you haven’t signed up yet but want to join, you can also come up and get a basket for your eggs.”
Just as they arrived, Leon and Abigail heard Lewis announcing that preparations for the Easter Egg Hunt were beginning.
Abigail immediately dragged Leon onto the stage. Maru, Vincent, Jas, a blond young man, and Alex also joined them.
Counting Leon and Abigail, Pelican Town had seven participants.
But they weren’t the only ones. From among the tourists, several more people stepped up—four men, two women, and a child half a head taller than Vincent—also totaling seven.
Under Lewis’s direction, everyone took a basket and stood to his left or right, ready for the hunt to begin. Only then did Lewis continue.
“I didn’t expect so many participants this year! That’s great news—it means the competition will be fiercer and the outcome more unpredictable. But remember, this is just a game. I hope you all enjoy the hunt and fill your baskets to the brim. And here’s a friendly reminder: any egg you put in your basket is yours to keep.”
