October 11, 2024 Something is happening in the Scorched Wilds. There is a battle raging between a familiar force and an unfamiliar one. What will you do? Help or hinder?

October 1, 2024 Spooky things are happening as the afterlife start walking among the living once again.

September 30, 2024 Louve Dieudonné manages to keep Wolfbron Bluffs in the family. What will happen between the Bluffs and the otherwise peaceful pride of Lorien Plains?

September 20, 2024 Ilarion Rurik challenges for Wolfbron, will the Dieudonné lead pride fall?

September 8, 2024War broke out once again in the Lagoon when a wedding had some uninvited guest arrive. The war results in the most death matches the island has seen at once. The Summit was challenged by Brighid with Talisa answering the call. After many years of the Summit have the same two leaders, the Summit changes hands. What will this mean for the balance of Amaryllis? A witch hunt has started by Luther and Miaran which seems to be turning things on an island that is full of magic.

August 25, 2024 War broke out in the challenge for the Lagoon after Cassius tries to take the Lagoon from Isla. The Cove remains with Miaran. The leadership of the Mire switches from Sigrún hold to Rike when Luther comes back to take his birthland back. Elephants push into the Rainforest and push out the lions there. Soon after Lucifer lays claim to his birthland and takes over the Rainforest.

June 27, 2024 Conflict and tensions rise as prides come head-to-head with one another across Amaryllis - just as Pyrrha and Cassius take the leap to try and claim (or reclaim) their own thrones.

May 24, 2024 Rulers continue to shift, family strife ensues, and, per usual, tensions seems taunt and always lingering on the horizon.

April 24, 2024 Things are rocky within Amaryllis as the Dieudonne clash result in three deaths and forces a shift in the rulership of Firnen Rainforest. With Caladan Cove freshly overturned as well, what will the consequenecss of these events be?

March 30, 2024 The lull has ended as a long standing family, the Dieudonné, launch death matches against their own. The Plains sees a challenge from a new comer, Aphrodite, and the quite pride is pushed into the spotlight.

March 19, 2024 A momentary lull has overtaken the lands of Amaryllis as its inhabitants attempt to find their footing and rebuild after a string of challenges. How long it will last, however, nobody can be quite sure.

February 11, 2024 The Mire has fallen from the Stärke family and is now held by Luther Rike. The change has stirred but the fighting nature of those on the island. The Brook finds a new leader with Icefang and Isla takes over the Lagoon after a storm pushes out the old leader. Reti finds himself the leader of the Hollows after Alexander is hurt. The Oasis finds a new leader in Léonie who is soon tested by Harou.

January 8, 2024 The snow has finally begun to melt anew, which means that the world is slowly returning to the much-anticipated summer season. With the various holiday activities and the other jests put on by Nafasi also coming to a close, it is safe to say that winter is finally over.

December 5th, 2023 Nafasi had pulled a cruel trick and has sent Amaryllis back into a renewed winter season! But it's not all bad, because the lands will also see a handful of holiday-themed events popping up as a result. To make things more interesting, a wayward trio of travlers have also arrived and are facilitating a mass competition between the prides, bands, and rogues -- formally dubbed the Amaryllis Winter Games.

December 2nd, 2023 The spring air brings forth a number of pride challenges. A familiar challenger for the Cove and the Oasis arrive to try to earn what they want. The new leader of the Lagoon is tested in battle as well. What changes will come from the challenges? Who will remain standing and who will find their world turned upside down?

November 27th, 2023 In a challenge between mother and daughter, the leadership of Wolfbron Bluff changes for the first time in 5 IC years.

November 22nd, 2023 Two death matches, one resurrection, and an almost-war later, the lands find themselves in a constant state of turmoil and calamity. Families have been torn apart and endless blood has been spilt; but how is it all going to end?

November 3rd, 2023 The lands stir violently as a death match rages on between Aeistrios Saxe and Morrigan Greyflood. Observers spill into the pit in droves to witness what will no doubt be a historic battle -- and it is clear that this familial fued is far from over, no matter who wins and who dies.

October 12th, 2023 With winter comes the surge of more pride challenges; Ludivine challenges Ryker for Firnen Rainforest and is victorious in her endeavors, meanwhile an outcropping of maims breaks out on the sidelines. In a shocking turn of events Luther returns to challenge Bruno for Ecrosia Mire, will the former heir prove victorious or has Bruno got what it takes to keep his brother's ambitions at bay? This has undoubtedly shaken things up as Bruno declares war against Andal Oasis and Allies in the process!

Oberon walks toward the Cove's border with intention. though it was not any way bad, he still needed to mentally prepare. this pride had housed him for months before he took the throne of Scilla. he was still a novice compared to Jewel. his little near month reign was not something to brag about. not when she held the Cove as long as she had.

chuffing, he summons either Jewel or the Vysemala or both. there hadn't been room to talk to the queens at his claim, if they had both been there. he also hoped that his unofficial mentor wasn't mad he went for it. Oberon saw a chance and he took it. it worked out in his favor, obviously, but time would tell if it was the right choice. as he waited on the border, he sits. his rump touches the Cove's earth and sand.

the new king sighs.

[OOC: Set before her uhh.. 'return' to CC for simplicity's sake.]

She heard the call and turned away from where she had been watching over the pridelands, brooding over the news of Kimagure's death. When she saw @Oberon standing on the borders, the ebony queen would tilt her skull towards him, a smile touching her lips. "What do we owe the pleasure of your company, my friend?" She wasn't upset that he had struck out on his own path..

If anything, the Sovereign was proud - pleased that he had managed to find his own way and she hoped that he would be able to remain in the lead of the Lagoon for longer than his predecessors had.

he was not kept waiting long.

good, since he had to go recruit and talk and... sigh. more talk. there was not a shortage of things to do since his reign started. Oberon's dull eyes brightened at the ebony queen's arrival. he sat up straighter as Jewel approached, warmly welcoming him. "well, no doubt you're aware but I am a king now" he says with amusement, tilting his head forward "and I make good on my promises."

the first time they spoke, Oberon had promised an alliance if he won a crown. Scilla was small after the fall, and he'd need all the help he could get with opinion and advice and all that. "but first" he says "your friend Diuris has become part of Scilla" again "just in case you notice him missing on your land. I know you offered him refuge when he needed it. for that, I'm thankful. he's become a good friend and advisor."

Jewel had obviously seen at the challenge, but had made no formal vocals toward it. Oberon felt it was best to let her know in case she hadn't heard Diuris being offered a home there. so much had happened at once. "but really, I'm here to let you know about your jolly not-so-new neighbor." he pauses, letting her speak as she wished.

Jewel would give @Oberon a smile, her lips twisting upwards as she tilted her head towards the male with the unique stripes. "I'm pleased you found your inner strength enough to step up and take what you wanted." The ebony queen would shift just enough that she was able to give the new Scillan king the full attention he deserved.

"I'm sure you are aware of our laws - how do you intend to govern your new pride, my friend?" Jewel highly doubted that whatever Oberon would come up with would be enough to sever the pact she had with the past Scillan leaders.. but Jewel truly did wish to find out what he intended to do with the pride.

"I appreciate you telling me of Durius. I would have been a little worried to find he had wandered away." A little more than a little worried of course.

he was not a tyrant. Oberon would never rule as one, nor expect others to fall under his grasp without warrant. he didn't want them to anyway. "thank you" he says, giving a nod to @Jewel "I'm sorry we can't continue our lessons" he grins at her "but if you'll have me from time to time, I'd still like to spar." he had yet to win against her. it didn't hurt his stupid male ego though. it kept him on his toes.

but she asked about his rule, yeah? "I want to be a pride" he begins "that values alliances and friendships made. that we're stronger because of them. I want Scilla to be a home for those that need one" a haven, a sanctuary... anything that they needed, he would provide "and if any time they want to leave, they can. just let me know" he sheepishly grins, laughing "ranks... cannot be challenged for."

he lets that sink in with Jewel. "because it causes rifts. ranks are handed out to the active, inclusive and hard working lions. and I plan to hold a meeting every season to gather the pride, let them put their names forward for ranks. we are a community first. it can be discussed. things are voted on." so basically, very friendly and welcoming. everyone has a voice. yada yada.
