Hatching-tide (2022)

A Hippity, Hoppity, Happy Hatching-tide! was the 2022 edition of the seasonal event Hatching-tide in Final Fantasy XIV.
The event was started by accepting the sidequest by talking to Jihli Aliapoh at Mih Khetto's Amphitheatre in Old Gridania (X:10.2 Y:9.4).
==History==
Jihli Aliapoh said she dreamed of brave adventurers walking around the city, handing out decorative eggs in the company of strange-looking chickens and rabbits. To recreate her dream, Jihli invited Pawlin to bring his chickens to Gridania and, placed an order for a large quantity of mammets resembling the ones in her dream. Since the chickens had not yet become accustomed to their new environment, Jihli asked Warrior of Light to help him collect the eggs.
At the Greatloam Growery, Nonotta reports that some rare creatures known as "happy rabbits" have invaded the making and frightened the chickens. Pawlin tried to calm the creatures but ended up being attacked and had his costume ripped off. After the confusion both the rabbit and the last chicken run away from the farm. Following the trail, the Warrior of Light discovered that the rabbits and chickens had fled out of town. In the Central Shroud, the Warrior of Light manages to round up the escaped creatures. 
Back in town, Jihli thanks them profusely for their efforts, further explaining that the chickens have calmed down and seem ready and willing to offer their eggs in abundance. Nonotta offers to finish decorating the eggs so that Warrior of Light and her new friends can go out into the streets and distribute them exactly as Jihli imagined in her dreams. Relieved that her dreams have once again brought smiles and joy to the inhabitants of Gridania, she presents Warrior of Light with a mammet made to look like one of the rabbits.
