For this holiday drabble, I focused on the commercial aspect of Easter. That means Easter eggs, which in this case are chicken eggs painted bright colors by the children.

Disclaimer: I've been egging the show-runners to give me the rights to Merlin, but so far it hasn't been working.

Prompt: From me: one for Easter

Rating: K+

Genre: Humor

Characters: Elyan, Merlin

Time Frame: One of the Holiday Arc chapters, so after "APRIL FOOLS!" during the Golden Age

Summary: Every year, though you may not know it, there's a tradition that involves the biggest Easter Egg Hunt you've ever seen. Now, whose bright idea was it to allow Merlin to hide the eggs?

Let's Go On An Adventure


Camelot's Annual Easter Egg Hunt was a big deal. The prize for having found the most eggs was 750 gold coins.

Elyan stealthily peeked around the corner. Sure enough, a certain servant was using magic to hide two Easter eggs in the chandelier.

Chuckling, Elyan jotted down the location on his notepad. Merlin did not notice Elyan's presence and continued onward towards the council chambers.

Out of all the things Merlin chose to use his magic for.

However, in this case, it worked out in Elyan's favour. Gwaine somehow won last year.

This year is my year.


For once, Merlin isn't the only one cheating. Some people may wonder why the heck Elyan knows where all of the eggs are.

Thank you KisetsuWaTsugitsugiShindeiku, goodgirl275, MythologyStar, and SisterOfAnElvenWannabe for reviewing.

Tomorrow I start with the Q/A chapters. Right now it's a 3 way tie between 1 chapter a day, 2-3 chapters a day, and all at once. Please, if you haven't voted yet, choose one of those three. Break the tie while you can, else I have my brother pick, and I think that he wants me to choose the evil option.
