2011 Easter event

The 2011 Easter event, officially named Holly and Hawthorn, was released on 19 April, 2011. ==Holly== Start by going through the Easter Portal located south of Falador, then talk to the Queen of Sunrise. Begin the Quest and you'll be asked to chop down an Evil holly tree. Afterwards, find some saplings and nourish them. Then, after the evil tree grows, cut it down. Don't forget to cut roots and set the tree on fire using Easter evil tree kindlings gained from the roots. You'll need many players and some time to cut it down. You can also join a group in the middle of work. After the tree is cut down, search it. You'll find a Year that you must bring to the Queen. Unfortunely, she'll discover that the Year isn't working. It isn't the true Year! She asks you to find the true Year and to ask the sky, the ground and the water. You must talk to: {| class="wikitable" | |River spirit |Over the river in the southeast corner |- | |Stone spirit |Climb the rocks in the northeast corner |- | |Cloud spirit |Climb up the rocks in the northwest corner |} Ask each of the spirits when to find the Year and you'll get 3 keys. Go to the southwest corner and use the stone key on the rock where the river ends. Enter the cave. There's a pool in the middle; use water key on it. Climb down the ladder and go to the next cave. Use the Cloud key on the steam. You'll get moved to the last cave where the Queen of Snow resides. Talk to her. She'll give you the key only if you make a sculpture that'll show her how beautiful the Spring is. Pick up the hammer and chisel in the room and use the chisel on the block of ice next to the Queen of Snow. You can pick any of the options. Talk to the Queen of Snow again, then a short cutscene will play and you will be returned to the Queen of Sunnrise. After a short cutscene, you'll be able to claim your reward.

==Reward== *Sunbeam crown *Invoke Spring emote ==Hawthorn== Talk to the Queen of Snow, she will ask you to chop down an Evil hawthorn tree. Do so, search it, return to the Queen of Snow. Once this is done, she will entrust you with the Icicle crown, which can be used to locate other Evil Trees scattered across RuneScape. Kill more Evil Hawthorn trees to charge it up (you need to wear the crown to see charges). ==Trivia== *The examine of the bank chest in The Land Of Holly and Hawthorn reads "Interest rates have frozen" ==Gallery== Cute animals easter 11 event.png|Cute Animals, sculpted out of ice.
