It used to drive you insane when your parents would usher you home right after the little kid egg hunt.

It had seemed immeasurably cruel and unfair that you had to leave while the Big Kids got to enjoy a special extended egg hunt and playground time.
<br><br>
No amount of teary eyes, embittered cries of "you're mean!", protruding lower lips, and stomping feet had ever swayed them -- but this year, you won't have to suffer such indignities, because finally, it's your turn.

Your dad always has to leave the house before you and your mom so that he and his partner can watch over the hunt.

"Is everything okay, $Player?"
<br><br>
You assure her that you're fine, you just wanted to say --
<br><br>
"Is Lilith behaving herself?"
<br><br>
You've begun to notice lately that no matter what you say to your parents, they always want to know what Lilith's up to. Why are they always asking about her? Do they like her better? Sometimes it annoys you.
<br><br>
"Then what is it?"
<br><br>
You can tell she doesn't really want to talk to you right now (or yesterday, or last night, or this morning), so you excuse yourself and go back to the playground to Lilith.
<</if>>
<<if $Lilith is true>>
"What do you need, $Player?"
<br><br>
She always sounds so tired when she talks to you. You wish she'd smile and chat with you like she does with Angela.
<br><br>
"Well?"
<br><br>
You didn't really have anything in mind when you approached her, but you know she gets irritated when you interrupt her quiet time for no reason, so you make something up.
<br><br>
"Honestly, $Player." She sighs loudly, and you can tell that you're bothering her, but you don't know why. "Can't I have a single moment to myself without you or your sister pestering me? You're on a playground, $Player, so go play!"
<br><br>
You go back to the playground to Angela.

"Welcome, everyone, to the 2024 Pleasantview Eggstravaganza! I hope everyone is having an //eggcellent// time! I'm //eggcited// as all get-out to tell you that the Easter Egg Hunt is about to begin but as always, there are rules we all must abide by to ensure that we all have an //eggstraordinary// time together!
<br><br>
Rule #1: No fighting! Everyone is expected to be on their best //be-egg-iour//!<br>
Rule #2: No stealing eggs! That includes grabbing them out of each other's hands, as well as baskets!<br>
Rule #3: Stay out of the water! There are no eggs in or around the pond, so there's no reason for anyone to be taking an Easter bath!<br>
Rule #4: As always, the person who finds the <b>striped egg</b> wins!
<br><br>
Anyone caught breaking the rules will be immediately //eggxpelled// from the hunt, so I'd advise you all to be good little bunny helpers. Now grab your baskets, get ready, and may the eggs be ever in your favor!"

<b>Tragedy Strikes Easter Sunday Celebration</b><br>
//By Rainelle Neengia//
<br><br>
//Pleasantview// - Easter, typically a time of renewal and hope, has been overshadowed by a somber reminder of life's fragility, and Pleasantview residents are left grappling with a profound sense of sorrow and disbelief.
<br><br>
On what was supposed to be a joyous Easter Sunday celebration, tragedy struck at Woodland Park yesterday afternoon as a child drowned in the park's serene pond. The incident occurred amidst families picnicking and enjoying the festive atmosphere.
<br><br>
Witnesses report that the child, identified as nine-year-old Owen Tellerman, was searching for Easter eggs near the pond's edge when he slipped and fell into the water. Despite frantic efforts by nearby adults to rescue him, Owen disappeared beneath the surface before help could reach him.
<br><br>
While the family has asked for privacy during this delicate time, questions linger about how such a tragedy could occur on a day meant for celebration and joy. In the wake of this heartbreaking incident, Woodland Park stands as a somber reminder of life's unpredictability, and the need for unwavering vigilance, even in moments of seemingly innocent leisure.

<b>Mysterious Red Sky Casts Shadow Over<br>
Pleasantview's Easter Egg Hunt</b><br>
//By Rainelle Neengia, Pleasantview Post//
<br><br>
//Pleasantview// - The annual Easter Egg hunt at Woodland Park took an eerie turn today as participants were met with a bizarre phenomenon that left them scratching their heads and searching for answers.
<br><br>
The picturesque park, known for its tranquil ambiance and sprawling pond, became the backdrop for an event that residents will not soon forget. As families gathered for the traditional Easter festivities, and children eagerly scanned the landscape for brightly colored eggs, the joyous occasion quickly turned perplexing as the sky above Woodland Park began to take on an unusual hue.
<br><br>
"I've lived in Pleasantview my whole life, and I've never seen anything like it," remarked longtime resident Don Lothario. "It was like something out of a science fiction movie."
<br><br>
Witnesses described the sky as turning a deep crimson, casting an ominous glow over the usually serene setting. The sudden reddening of the sky prompted murmurs of confusion and concern among attendees, many of whom felt compelled to cancel their egg-hunting endeavors and take their children home.
<br><br>
Local authorities have yet to provide an official explanation for the phenomenon, leaving residents to wonder if the mysterious red sky was merely a fluke of nature, or a sign of something more ominous lurking on the horizon.
