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!

Summer
Summer is in full swing now, with clear skies, warm nights, and ample sunshine! As such, the deserts begin to grow dry, the shores remain a blissful escape, the north is spared with cooling winds, and humidity continues to rise in the jungle. Rain and storms are long forgotten troubles by now, which is both a virtue and a vice during the heat of the season.

She'd been here before, but only as a spectator. Fighting wasn't her favourite pastime - it was messy, and she hardly sported the build and constitution of a warrior - but if she wanted to thrive in this land, if she wanted her kin to thrive, she would have to be adaptable. She would have to be strong. Queens were strong. And so, with a renewed steel, the scarlet pelted woman would stride into the arena and let out a summons for any nearby that might want to test their mettle against her. Win or lose, practice was practice and Basira would simply have to remember that. There was no way for her to improve if she did not try these things. Holding her head low to the ground, she would keep her attention trained on the horizon, ears pinned and posture rigid; a coiled spring, ready to unload.

Shaking herself off, Cassandra felt a renewed effort to push herself to be better, to get stronger and push herself to her limits. If she wanted to eventually help secure the Sigrun a home again, she'd need to be strong to stand against any opponent that might stand in her way. Plus, if she was going to eventually be Kvi's queen as he had once mentioned her being, she would have to be strong. It was the Sigrun way, after all. If she wasn't strong enough to stand against one who wished to take her down, she would not make a good queen for Kvi.

She had been passing by the Pit when she heard a call ring out. It was a summons for anyone who wished to spar and practice. Peeking over the pit, the almost grown girl spotted a deep red hued lioness standing in the Pit below. Letting herself slide carefully down into the bottom of the Pit herself, Cassandra readied her own defenses as she approached the other. Her own ears were pressed against her head, and she lowered her own head as she came to a few feet away from the other. A slight incline of her head would be all that was given before Cassandra launched herself towards the other. Her eyes would look to the darker lioness's left shoulder, and she'd aim to look like she was heading for the left side of her opponent - but at the last moment she'd attempt to move towards the right and aiming to shove her left shoulder against the older lioness's right, aiming to knock her off balance if she could.

It would not take long for another to approach the arena, and Basira would watch as @Cassandra descended the rock path and moved to stand before her. She carried with her an air of determination, and despite the fact that she may have had a slight age advantage on this brunette.... Well, she seemed awfully well built. Like a warrior - or, at the very least, a warrior in the making. The perfect opponent to test her own skills on, then; or lack thereof. Basira would not even have a chance to offer any sort of response to the other lioness' greeting before she would come barrelling at her. Steeling herself abruptly, the Najma would lower her head, rolling her shoulders forward and parting her jaws in anticipation of the swift impact that would come. It seemed as if Cassandra was heading for her left side, but at the last second she would throw a feint into the mix, shoving her left shoulder blade forward to collide with Basira's right shoulder. A bruise would bloom at the point of impact, and in swift retribution Basira would throw her weight in Cassandra's direction, seeking to run her fangs along the nearest side of her opponent's cheek. This is where the lack of height difference would come in useful; though it was clear in where she aimed her attack that there was no real malice there. If she was aiming to blind, or take a tongue, the younger woman would have known about it.

The more she matured, the more she grew into the body she was meant to have. The young girl was built like a warrior, but with a softer side as well. She was built a lot more like Morrigan than Talisa, but definitely had some of both her mothers obvious in her build. As close as she was to her second birthday, she was nearly mature and fully grown at this point.

Her feint, it would seem, was successful. She caught the other off-guard, her left shoulder colliding with her opponent’s right one. However, it would not be without retaliation as the other threw her own weight in her direction, causing her to stagger slightly with the collision, and her opponent’s fangs would run lightly against her cheek. A slight growl escaped the young girl at the proximity of the other’s fangs to her eye and ear. In retaliation, Cassandra would aim to shove herself back against the other with the intent to ram her forehead against the side of the other’s head if she could.

The bruising that bloomed at the point of impact would be substantial; in the hours to come, once the adrenaline wore off, Basira would find her right shoulder to be tender and sore. It was aggravating, of course, but such things came with the territory. It could always be worse. At the very least her own attack would find purchase at Cassandra's cheek, and Basira would relish in the sensation of blood settling across her teeth and on the tip of her tongue. The smugness would not last long, though, as heavy crown came swinging her way by means of a headbutt; in an attempted counter, Basira would part her jaws further and aim to dig further against the wound she'd already managed to deal to Cassandra's cheek. It would have been difficult to avoid any sort of bruising to her face and lips anyway, so at least this way she might be able to take a chunk of the brunette with her. A memento.
