December 13, 2024 After winning the challenge for Wolfbron Bluffs and becoming the fourth Dieudonné to hold the crown, Lazare releases all the members and ends the longest standing pride's reign over the island. After seven years of the Bluffs being held by the same family, it now sits empty, waiting for the next chapter of it's leadership.

December 6, 2024 Death came to a witch hunter after she called for the death of Karsa, with Kvare answering it causing Miaran to fall. Lazare Dieudonné challenges Louve Dieudonné for Wolfbron Bluffs. Snow seems to be falling in the middle of the summer as strange animals show up and offer a tempting meal for those brave enough to jump in.

November 8, 2024 Scorpius has gone missing and in his place Zaahir steps up to take the throne of Andal Oasis. How this change of leadership will shake things up in the lands, only time will tell.

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!

The coppery tang of blood invades his senses as claws rake across her tri-colored face. Satisfying, though not a smell he particularly enjoys. He's not sure if he damaged her eye like he intended to, but he has no time to dwell on it. His struggle against her grip on his cheek turns out to be redundant—she lets go almost as quickly as she bit down. It still hurts like hell, and now he's all fired up from the adrenaline and pain. His cheek is marred with an ugly red stain. Maybe he was too cocky going in, and, if he were anyone else, he would probably reconsider his strategy. But no, the yearling clearly believes he can win this with fair ease.

Suddenly she's charging off, moving past his right side and landing a blow on his ribs that sends him stumbling. He somehow manages to catch himself without tumbling over, but a second annoyed snarl escapes him as he clumsily whirls around after her. Why is she so fast? He always thought pride lions were spoiled and terrible fighters. Her chest facing his underbelly, he tries to close his jaws around the side of her neck area, just behind her ear. He's too young and ignorant to really have a desire to kill her, but with the way this scrap has been going, he certainly has some catching up to do.

He was took weakened, too beaten down to stop what came next. As he tried to pull his left limb from beneath her, broken toes protesting as he did, she only drove her own weight down harder and harder. Until finally there was a white hot flash of pain as the bone of his foreleg snapped in two. He could barely hear her mocking words as blood pounded in his skull at this new kind of pain, reeling. As her weight disappeared completely he foolishly tried to stand, mind in a haze as the sounds of the dying battlefield began to reach him.

He collapse with a choked cry immediately, cracked ribs making even sound painful. Silver streaked eyes searched in desperation for @Voluspa, but his vision was spinning to much to focus on anything. He tried to stagger towards the tree line this time, but he only managed a little ways before he stumbled over a gnarled, moss-covered root. As he tripped, he jarred the broken limb against the ground and this time his mind gave in to the pain, succumbing to the soft blackness hovering at the edge of his vision. exit khal via unconciousness

It all happened in a blaze of chaos - which he supposed he should have expected really given the current state of the violence around him. One minute, he faced @Dahlia in an attempt to reassure her that her sister was safe with him and the next a youth had attacked the calico teenager. Shock rushed over the mans face, but he needed to think about @Zahra. The other male who had been in attendance spoke then - identifying himself as @Ragnar and their relationship to one another. Tamlen nodded swiftly, accepting the yearling's help as he moved to get Zahra onto his back. When she was secure, Tamlen began to move away, his rescue of the red feline the only thing on his mind.

the world swirled around her in a tangled and horrid mess, dark figurine fumbling as Voluspa staggered through the crowd in search of her family. but it did not take her long to notice an eruption amongst the calamity, gaze twisting, breathing hitching, chest tightening — only to watch as both erna and saga fell into a bloodied mess amongst the earth and grim, their bodies tattered beyond recognition from the battle that they had endured. and the valkyrie could have sworn that she saw the light fade from both women, prompting a splintered sort of cry to build up in her throat until — until @Calypso was there, pulling saga back from the vellen’s arms as quickly as she had gone.

horrified. that was the only expression that ensared voluspa’s complexion now.

thankfully, however, a cry broke through her daze, eyes snapping as she finally found @Khal amongst the wreckage — but he, too, is not in the state that she wished to see. mouth dry, eyes wide, and her brain still churning to understand what she had just bore witness to, the sigrun would bolt in the direction of her paramour, all-the-while trying not to place much pressure on her damaged limb. it was only once she was arched protectively over his body that voluspa would spare a final glance towards the others, heart splitting into two — but, at the end of the day, it was khal who needed her most. and so, it was with a low grunt that she would attempt to move the valour away from the remaining tendrils of the war, hoping to get him just far enough so that she could tend to his wounds and bring him back into consciousness.

the rest of this chaos would be dealt with later. exit.

His frustration only grows each time @Apollinaire evades the full brunt of his attacks, tail whipping behind the sovereign in irritation. He does not wish to be here — this would not be his war if Alaric was wiser about his allies, but here he is, fighting it; whether it's for honor, revenge, or duty is undetermined.

His opponent recoils and he is left only with a mouthful of hair and a rumbling growl, adrenaline rushing through his veins — though it may not be enough to subdue his prior injuries for much longer. His adversary's teeth sink painfully into the fleshy bit of his lower jaw, and Seneca's reaction is immediate and harsh; Apollinaire's top canines skate shallowly across the right side of his muzzle as the Andal sovereign seeks to wrench his head forcefully down and to the right, hoping that the other lion's lower teeth are hooked enough around the bone of his mandible that it is forced to come with him, with his intent being to hyper-extend the man's jaw.

Nofuckingway she was losing more of her ear. Alizabeth's head attempted to yank back, away from the jaws. This would ultimately cause the ear to ribbon more, but at least it was still there. Blood continued to trickle down her face, and the wounds on her shoulders worsened as Amara's claws sliced down them once more. Pain was mixed with rage now, not just pissed off. Due to her head being around near Amara's neck from her previous attack, the woman attempts to headbutt her opponent as she's pulling away. In a further attempt to keep Amara from her face and ear, one of her paws moves to lift and attempt to slap the woman roughly, claws exposed for maximum damage.

The two wouldn't be alone with the body for long, and as peach swathed lioness with a rather interesting accent made her appearance would Valkravn take a couple of steps back to allow her to get to work. She would watch her move with a rather intense stare, working on stopping the bleeding. The roar of the fallen woman's name would cause for the Viking's head to snap in the direction it came from, watching as a large grey lion charged his way toward them. Her fur would bristle and muscles would tense and for a moment Valkravn was ready to attack if needed, but as soon as he nears them all beaten and seeming to be carrying a mangled limb, she would listen as he slipped into tongue she understood. Brows would furrow as she watched him before her attention went back to the healer, watching and waiting.

And then the slightest stir of the once dead would catch her attention, the words pushed forth from the woman causing for her ears to stand erect with alert and eyes to widen only slightly. She was alive. "Thank Maua," the woman would breathe, knowing that this news was something seismic. Her attention would be solely on the newly revived, not paying much attention to others, and after several moments would the Viking finally begin to feel the exhaustion settling in. There seemed to be more than enough other bodies surrounding the Sigrun that they should be able to carry her back to a safe spot, so with a grunt would Valkravn slink off and make her leave, heading back to the Brook to begin to tend to her injuries.

exit Valkravn.

The fight was always in the obsidian man's favor, and perhaps if the white lion wasn't so battered and beaten that this would have been a far more exhausting battle. He would come out as the victor and his hungry jaws would snap at a hind limb, grabbing a hold and biting down as hard as it could. The sickening snap! between his jaws would cause for Keir to jolt subtly, and for a moment he began to wonder what he had truly done. But that thought was fleeting - a limb for a limb. He had done what he set off to do, and once he were sure the leg was broken would he release his grip. "Don't fucking touch my brother again," the beast would snarl, watching as the other limped away. Blue eyes would look wildly around him as he panted, tongue rasping along his lips. It seemed that things were beginning to settle down, and unaware that Saga had perished only to be brought back, Keir would decide best to make his exit now before anyone tried to come at him for revenge.

exit Keir.

She didn't move, she didn't falter.

She wasn't going to move until they were all gone. Ears pulled back, loudly growling as she stood her ground beside @Zosimos . She knew size wants on her side but she knew she could still do some damage, whatever she could to drive them out. She hissed and hummed with Hugh intensity, lips pulled to let her still growing fangs out in her attempts to look intimidating. They needed to know she was being serious, no games.

Luckily for her inner relief more pride mates came to back them up including the king himself. Though his condition was very bad and she didn't want him to be caught in more pain that he already did.

Fortunately they didn't have to fight as she saw more and more leaving. Settling the Mire back to the quietness but only by a bit. She let a sight if relief out of her stressed lungs. This was her first war, one she will definitely remember her whole life, along with very important life lessons she would had liked to learn in a not so tragic manner as this one.

She turned her head to the rest, feeling no wish to be the goofy self. This wasn't the time for them. And like that she would return to the den with her siblings. Following after her mother to make guard for the rest of the night... Exit Kinki

She hadn't wanted any parts in any of this. Not initially, but Dahlia knew that if her family members were fighting they would certainly need mending. She was bound here by her duty as a medic and when Ambrose attacked her her attention shifted to become a protector. She knew that she needed to distract him long enough for her brother to get Zahra to safety and she would do whatever was necessary, even if it meant taking injuries herself. Ignoring the blood that dripped down her face she tried to shift her weight away from Ambrose but to no avail.

She feels his teeth clench down behind her right ear and immediately the skin is punctured, causing the yearling to wince and let out a gasp of air. Instinctively her left forepaw would reach forward and out in an attempt to shove the man away from her. Her paw would then move in a downward motion as she attempted to slice with her claws across his ribs, meanwhile her hind paws dug into the ground to provide her more traction.
