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!

September 26th, 2023 A series of pride challenges spark up across the peninsula, while warring families face-off as tensions reach their boiling points. Anthonius Savante barely manages to escape the clutches of Apollinaire Dieudonne with his life, while death looms over the broken truce between the Valour-Greyflood and Saxe families.

September 4th, 2023 After Tinúviel collapsed at the Wolfbron Bluff's challenge, she was unable to make it back to the Lagoon to take up her leadership position again and the pride disbands. Diomedeidae & Cirilla fight for the pride.

August 28th, 2023 Both Amara and Morrigan keep their prides. Lachesis doesn't show to defend the Brook and Renfri takes over. The Wolfbron Bluffs challenge seems to be setting off fireworks already.

August 15th, 2023 The two longest standing female leaders are both fighting for their prides once again. Anthonius challenges Amara for the Bluffs. Amaroq challenges Morrigan for the Summit. A new leader faces his first challenge as Renfri challenges Lachesis for the Brook. Did anyone think that peace was something the island was able to have?

August 1st, 2023 Conflict, drama, love, and loss - the lands are never free from any of it for more than a fleeting moment. As the summer months wane on and the season nears its end, there is no telling what is coming next upon the horizon.

June 19th, 2023 With the rains leaving and spring upon the island, things are heating up among the lions. Bruno seeks to unseat his father in the Mire. Helah looks to dethrone Scorpius in the Oasis and keep the fire between the Bluffs and the Oasis alive. The Plains have raided the Brook and allies on both sides showed up to help.

May 23rd, 2023 All is fair in love and war - moments of chaos and peace lull in a cyclical nature across the lands of Amaryllis, though most are wise enough to know that the quiet never lasts quite long enough.

April 20th, 2023 Alexander manages to win the Hollows and Tiamat keeps the Lagoon. Vághan challenges Amara for the Bluffs but Amara is able to hold off another challenger and keeps the Bluffs. The Cove was hit by a storm that washed away it's leader leaving the lands open to be claimed by Nephthys and Keligan who both are attached to the land. Cirilla attempts to take the Oasis from Scorpius who seems driven to keep the land.

April 5th, 2023 It doesn't take long for the dust to kick up as the Hollows is challenged for by Alexander once again and the Lagoon is challenged for by Fernweh.

March 31st, 2023 As wars and challenges continue to break out across the lands, Amaryllis is certainly keeping up with its turbulent reputation. One can only hope that the dust will settle soon enough - for everyone's sake.

March 10th, 2023 The turbulance of the prides never ceases for very long, as a violent landslide forces the members of Firnen Rainforest to evacuate and disband. Who will step up for the throne this time around?

March 1st, 2023 While Gauthier manages to retain control of Caladan Cove, Lorien Plains' fate is not so simple. With Aeistrios overthrowing Violarum and taking the pride's throne, how will things unravel from here?

Summer
The summer season has finally reached its peak. The sunshine is plentiful, the days are long and the air is hot and humid - but the evenings do not seem to provide the same relief that they once had, and remain somewhat stuffy. Thunderstorms have also began appearing more frequently, particularly in the rainforest and eastern region, though the rain is welcomed after a relatively dry season thus far.

OOC: Pride status vague

@Helah ♔
Winter had taken a vice grip upon the land at the moment of their entry. How fitting. Azure gaze has seldom seen snowfall, the children of the sun not quite known for their harsh colder months. Naturally then, he is called to the land of frost and ice to explore. As was befitting a prince of great learning.
Investigative mood taking hold, the winged angel set his broad feet to discover the wonders of a newly found ice cavern. Glassy surface all around, reaching around the behemoth in an arc, begging him to venture deeper still.
A strong, siren's wind whipped up through the tunnel, catching cobalt mane and tussling with his thick, vibrant fur. He laughs, sudden and unexpected. His deep baritone echoing back at him from all around.

The chill of the wind chased her inside the caverns, with an annoyed grumble. Her fur would never be quite thick enough to be comfortable in the North during the winter, and yet- here she was. While others, probably were daunted by the beauty of the caverns, Helah found herself marching right up to the reflective panels of ice that were so clear they reflected like glass- and staring into them. Then she turned slowly and took a moment to simply admire herself and her reflection.

Damn, she looked good.

A laugh- a laugh drew her attention away from herself- a crime at the very least, and she strolled further into the cave to find a blue hued masterpiece of a male laughing at a phantom wind as it stirred his mane. She watched him from the nook she stood in, before strolling forward. "Handsome, and crazy enough to love the cold, hmm?" She would speak- her voice a soft coo as she approached him- studying his vibrant colors with a grin.

The magnificence of his surroundings had indeed captured the full attention of the celestial. So much so that he does not know of her existence at all until she is suddenly there, upon him, her deliciously soft voice another song to sate his aching, hungry soul.

He turns to behold her, ceasing in laughter to find this unexpected gift that has fallen into his lap. Gargantuan body shifts simply and with expertise, almost as if he is not a mammoth amongst men cramped into this glass labyrinth.
And oh, how beautiful she was. Lips flickered before peeling high across his white teeth. He could almost forgive the question of his sanity, of which many had debated. "Oh, not quite crazy." He chides smoothly. "But most certainly handsome." His knowing smile of the devil's own.
"Tell me..." He crooned, taking a bold step toward her, head tilting slowly in curiosity, eyes brightening. "How have you managed to keep those rather sensual, elven ears?" They cut them off at birth, as far as he knew.

He turns, and she remains lazily straight under his gaze- wholly unimpressed by his size and sheer mass compared to she- but definitely finding his azure fur to be the most breathtaking thing she has considered in a while. As he speaks, he takes a step towards her, and she dares to echo the movement- not at all afraid of the giant beast, instead, she looks up aiming to meet his blue gaze.

"Eleven ears?" She questions. "These old things?" She queries with a flick of her ears. "They're a trade-mark of my unfortunate lineage. Everyone had them." She says dismissively. They surely are not the most spectacular thing about herself. Sitting back onto her haunches, she lazily raises a paw to gesture up at her ears- "They're far less impressive than the pink rosette markings." She comments. Now, those- those had been different than those she had been born around. Those marked her as a beauty, and an oddity.

The little elf was bold. But that was so exciting, was it not? The fine hairs upon his spine tingle with anticipation. He was so bored of goodly little maidens, their submissive natures brought him only the littlest, tiniest, slither of pleasure. Only his dearest sister had ever really taken a stand to him, her strength and cruelty unrivalled thus far.
Inky blue muzzle tipped downward, regarding her sultry figure as if she were a plum just about ripe for the picking, following up on her instruction to admire the rosette's that garnished her delicious body. The depth and intensity of his stare revealing just how appreciative he truly was.
"Oh no." His crocodile smile shook from side to side as he leaned closer. Unfortunate ears! "They are a gift, some might say...lucky." Teeth flash once again, saying what he can to shock her, but not telling a lie in order to do so. "Some pay very well to be in possession of such precious adornments." He chuckled then, the echo flashing around the glass walls as he raised up his head, giving her space without his gaze ever letting up. "But yes, I see now that your rosettes are most alluring."

A soft dismissive snort leaves her at his words, "A gift," She repeats, a brow arching delicately over her rosy colored eyes as she stares at him. "Hard to believe they're much of a gift when all the simpering idiots in my homeland all have them." She says, a saccharine grin. "But if you want to consider me special, handsome, I'll allow it." She adds- daring to completely closer her eyes as she grooms her face with her paw- allowing that dulling of her senses.

"What do they call you anyway, big blue?" She asks him, cracking an eye open after a moment to study him. "Can't say I've ever seen anyone quite like You."

A city of elves is almost more than can be believed. A throng of deliciously long eared lionesses. Acheron's appetite is wettened for it, if only because he has long been a collector of the beautiful and rare. Talons extended to excitedly scratch the glass beneath his him. A partaker of the obscene, as father would slur.
"Indeed, most special." Lips moistened by hunger, voyeur gaze was entreated to look upon the petite creature as she took to bathing herself wantonly before him. An unsubtle invitation that brought a quickening ache to his loins.
The archangel leaned down toward the elf as her paw snaked across her delicate face, feather marked legs bending smoothly to draw him to her level and deliver his them face to face in time for a single rosy eye to open.
"I am Acheron." He replied smoothly, features marred with unsourced amusement. "My father said it meant 'river of sorrows'." He huffed, caught between a laugh and a grunt. "And no, there is no one like me, sweet little sensuous elf."

As if reminded, intense eyes flicker toward the long appendages. "Perhaps I will take a little of one before I have you. For my luck here in these new lands." Without missing a beat, he snapped his jaws forward in an attempt to try and bite the tip of her left ear tip.

She watches him through a half-lidded eye, as she steadily grooms herself, and listens as he speaks. Special, Helah was special, but not because of her ears. She was a dastardly beautiful creature, a ruthlessly cunning mind... but her ears. So, big blue was a little weird. Ear fetish- cool. He introduced himself as 'Acheron', and explained that his father said it meant river of sorrows. "Call me Rosette." She allows, the lie spilling from her lips easily, as she hasn't decided quite yet- if he has earned her full and true name.

She grins at his words, and in a heartbeat, it seems, his blue jaws- snap towards her and she laughs maniacally, as she jerks her head back suddenly aware. Well, if he wants a taste of her, she can't make it easy for him. She feels teeth graze her ear- and she is lucky- so lucky to have dodged quickly. Then, Helah is on the attack, using her smaller size to her advantage.

Helah aims to go low, to be quick. She aims to snake downwards, to the left side of him, aiming to part her jaws as she aims for his underbelly, the tender parts of the flesh there- leaving her back, and top half exposed to his paws and teeth sure, but if she can get close to what all males value most..... Maybe she can get the upper paw. Her claws dig into the ground, as a defense mechanism for traction and support, not using them for an attack, at the moment- instead, aiming to use them as a propellant and support on the glass like surface.

What a delightful male, that she needs to get a taste of now. Maybe he'll taste as blue as he looks!

Rosette, the name purred lavishly inside his twisted mind as he readied to sample her luxurious grey flesh. Yet pearlescent fangs miss, merely grazing the ear as his sweet intended ducked low, left and almost out of sight. Teeth gnashed together uncomfortably, jarring his senses but the sensation is short lived.

A smirk coiled about cobalt features then, as her carnal destination unveiled itself and he is forced to intercept. Instinctive, the giant forced his hips down until his manhood pressed to the cool glass floor. A biting sensation, but preferable to the alternative as her teeth sink into the tender skin at the center of his stomach. Ruby blood spilling under her sharp kiss.

He hissed and laughed, curling to his left drawing up his (right) muscular forearm in an attempt to use it to try and drag his long talons along her side from hip to shoulder.

She cackles, as his hips press against the glass floor in front of her and instead, her jaws snap into his tender under-belly. It's not exactly... what she wanted to get a hold of, but none-the-less... the warmth of his blood meets her tongue and she lets out a sound of pleasure. She feels his talon like claws, as they pierce her flesh- as he drags them along her skin- and whilst she should have tried to pull away, to write away from him, instead, she bows into the pressure pressing into him, enjoying the sensation of pain- letting him slice into her as deeply as he wishes- marking her beautiful flesh.

In response to his long raking claws down her body, she attempts to reaffirm her grip- aiming to bite into him harder this time, because if he's going to cause her pleasure with pain, she's decide she wants to hear him whimper with pain. At the same time, she'll aim to shift so that her right paw could reach up and aim to dig into his side, and if not- leave scoring marks down the side of his gorgeous flesh- marking him as hers for what is surely to follow this sensuous foreplay.
