Spring has arrived in Tendaji; in most places flowers were blooming while others might only see a slight temperature increase. The weather was nice so you decide to take a stroll. As you leave town and enter a small clearing, you notice strange colorful dots all throughout the grass.

"Oh stop right there!"

Freezing, you stop with your foot hovering just a breath above the grass and then as you slowly take one step backwards you notice that something colorful had been nestled against the ground. What was this? A Gaein girl comes forward and offers a big smile, "Thank you for stopping! You nearly crushed the egg." From there she explains that the whole field is full of colorful eggs that she had spread out for the villagers to find. Apparently in Belrea this time of year is a time for festivities and one of their most popular games is finding brightly dyed eggs that children create with their parents who later hide them away. As a member of the Academy she had been granted permission to come and share this knowledge with those in Tendaji and so offers to allow you to play with those already shifting through the wide expanse of fields.

Roll a 1d20 to determine what happens during your hunt!]
1. You are reaching out for an egg when it suddenly floats away! What in the? But then you notice wings behind it. A sprite is trying to steal your egg away!
2. You find a total of 8, totally normal, painted eggs!
3. You pick up what appears to be an egg but doesn't have the same weight a normal egg should have and you notice a line down the center. As you pull the two halves apart, a strange vial [an eye of the goddess] falls out!
4. You find a total of 2, totally normal, painted eggs!
5. You pick up an egg but later begin to smell something foul coming from your bag, it seems that you picked up a rotten egg!
6. You feel a bit competitive and run around as fast as you can to collect every egg, too bad a little boy just left with a basket full!
7. Oh no, watch your step! You accidentally step on and break an egg!
8. You find a total of 10, totally normal, painted eggs!
9. You find an extra large egg hidden in some tall grass. Later, it hatches into a Xaraan!
10. You're a little late to the party, all the younglings have already gathered all the eggs before you even got a chance, how sad!
11. You find a total of 5, totally normal, painted eggs!.
12. You hear a quiet scratching noise coming from a slightly larger painted egg you just picked up. It later hatches into a Sailscale!
13. You find a total of 1, totally normal, painted egg!
14. As you're walking, you hear a strange noise coming from the bushes. A keldari pops out at you! Whether you get startled or just shoo it away, a few eggs fall out of your basket and crack as they hit the ground.
15. You find a total of 3, totally normal, painted eggs!
16. You're walking towards a particular egg when you feel something beneath your foot as you take a step. Whew! Close call, you move your foot and the egg remains unharmed and you add it to your basket!
17. You find a total of 15, totally normal, painted eggs!
18. You feel your basket start to wiggle a bit and then hear giggling. As you look down, you see a youngling taking your eggs! They make off with 4 of your eggs before you have a chance to stop them!
19. You find an unpainted egg. Figuring it's not a part of the egg hunt, you leave it alone and continue on.
20. It seems that something is weird about one of the eggs you've picked up. As you stare at it the egg begins to wobble and even glows from the inside?! It later hatches into a Sitara!

Gahiji cocked his head to one side, lifting a hand up to scratch it against his cheek. He starred down at the strange looking girl that called out to him during his inspection of the strange goings on around him. Who... was that? She was an odd one, huh? Wait, what? Eggs? He looked down at the ground, taking in the egg that she had accused him of almost stepping on. That was... odd. What were eggs doing sitting all over the ground? Squatting down he gave one of them a poke, wondering if they were something that he could eat.

Looking up at her he listened as she explained to him what was going on, what he was supposed to be doing, and what the whole event was for. Collecting eggs for the sake of collecting eggs, huh? He felt that while he sounded really, really weird he thought that it was actually a great idea! Not because of any of the reasons that she gave but instead because he wanted to collect a bunch of these eggs and see about preparing them as a snack. He found himself being given a basket so that he could actually go about getting all of those eggs, something he was quite determined to do now.

As he searched about the mask wearing Gahiji found himself wondering what rainbow colored eggs might taste like. Were they the same as normal eggs or were they better somehow? He supposed that the only way that he would find out is if he collected some of them and then went about comparing them to normal eggs. Of course that meant that he was going to have to get his hands on some normal eggs as well if he was going to go about comparing them to one another. Of course even as he thought that for a moment he was already scooping up an egg, looking it over, then set to peeling the colorful shell off of the hard boiled egg, and then ate it.

Just as he realized that he'd already eaten his only egg in the basket and without having anything to compare to it. He gave a humming sound as he looked over the rainbow shells before he dropped them onto the ground. Once they were on the ground and forgotten he continued with the search, seeking out more of the colorful eggs. He felt that he should probably try again. He'd find some more eggs and this time actually hold onto them for real. As he thought that he found his foot coming down on something. He gave pause then slowly started to lift up his foot, looking down at the egg that he'd almost stomped into the ground. Oops, that likely would have been a bit of a mess, huh?

Squatting down he gave the egg a poke, making sure that it was in one piece still, before he scooped it up and tossed it into the basket that he was carrying around with him. Alright, that was one egg down, and a rather pretty blue one at that. Now all he had to do was get the rest of the colors and he could be on his way. It would give him a chance to see if each of the different colors of eggs had different flavors from one another or if they just looked different. He supposed that it likely had to do with if they were all the same sort of egg, right? Unless the dye actually changed the flavors of the eggs that they dyed?

His eyes went to the basket, looking over the blue egg, and instantly he had to tell himself not to eat it as tempting as it was. The egg might look good and that last one he'd eaten was good but he wanted to get a whole collection of them before he actually went about eating them. No reason to ruin this experiment of sorts before it even started after all. The only downside seemed to be that a lot of people were seeking out the eggs, a lot of them significantly younger then Gahiji himself was. That meant that he had to find eggs that weren't being taken by the younglings since he didn't want to appear as being mean or anything. Best to look in more out of the way places if he wanted to get a collection of eggs without stealing them from children. Once he had his collection of eggs to taste test he headed out. There hadn't been any warriors there that stuck out to him that he could pick fights with so it would appear as though there was no reason to stick around after he got what he wanted.
