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!

A giggle let out when Pyracantha licked at him and then he moved carefully to inspect the small cubs. A boy and a girl! Oh he couldn't wait to tell mammie Asteria and Naz, and the rest! He was a big brother! "Mars... Venus... awesome!" he chirped in approval of his siblings names before he moved to nuzzle against the back of Pyracantha's shoulders. He felt his fathers warm mane drape across him and settled across the front limbs. It was nice and cozy in here, and while his mother drifted to sleep so did he. In fact he sort of .. well passed out sleeping soundly across his fathers limbs hidden from immediate view by his mothers form. Not even his father stirring awake or the voice of a stranger had woken him, it had been a long day and sleep would win over curiosity.

Amara looks at @Tripfire as he comes out and speaks. Amara wasn't sure where things stood with the male but she wasn't about to let any more family slip away. *Good. She glanced inside and saw that they were sleeping, she would let them sleep for the moment but she wanted to make sure that all were officially part of the pride before she started allowing them to feed off the work of the pride. The news that the adopted child with them was better than Trip as a cub was welcome news. It was a miracle that the cub had made it as long as he had. *You'll have the rank of Barony for now. She wanted to make sure that he had something to do. *You are welcome to go for another rank if you wish. It was a starting point and nothing more. *Go get her some food to eat. I'll keep watch.

She allowed some time to pass before entering the den and chuffing for @Pyracantha and @Beñat to wake up. It was a gentle call to keep them from startling. Once she was sure they were both awake enough to hear her she spoke. I am Amara Dieudonné, this is my pride. Do you both wish to stay here with Tripfire? She let her gaze sweep over the cubs and the lioness as she waited for their answers.

*"for now the rank suits me fine," he agreed, he would work up to a higher rank in time but for now the rank of Barony was enough for him. "*Yes," he agreed in French to his aunt before turning to gently nuzzle Pyracantha awake. "Mon amour, meet your high sovereign. I will be back with food," he spoke quietly so the voice didn't echo too much around the small den.

Standing up he carefully moved to leave Pyracantha's side, something only Amara could command of him. Pausing he glanced back at his little family with a smile before he left to go get something from the nearby cache.

Beñat could hear his father speaking in French to a woman, but he sort of just ignored it. But it was hard to ignore when your bed moved suddenly! Tripfire had moved which made Beñat roll off his front paws. A low grunt was given in annoyance while he climbed over Pyracantha but gave up half way. Draping himself across her stomach looking down at the suckling and sleeping cubs. Oh yeah, he had siblings! Blinking the sleep out of his eyes he watched his father leave then was startled by Amara. He hadn't noticed her at first and she sort of blended in. Struggling he tried to clamber over Pyracantha but was failing, he needed to protect her! Then father glanced back at them and smiled, oh this was a good lioness then? Turning his head he listened to her speak, "Bonjour... Yeah, I stay with papa and mama," he agreed with a happy little dopey grin. "and Mars and Venus, they are cute huh?" he announced proudly of his siblings.

Exhaustion had overtaken the lioness and she had slept soundly for a good bit while Tripfire and Amara spoke, she only started awakening once Beñat clambered over her stomach, his sleepy body draping across her, she smiled softly in her half awake stage, sleeping even as Trips voice tries to rouse her. It wasn't until the voice of a stranger gave a chuff to announce their entry, causing the tri colored lioness to open her lilac colored eyes to settle cautiously on the High Sovereign.


Beñat beats her to a greeting, and she can't help but to smile softly at his pleasant personality, her head turns to nudge him softly, before looking to the two cubs at her side, finally she is awake enough to process words, and she listens to Amara's question before answering. Yes, I think we all would like to remain with Tripfire, thank you for having us. She dips her head slightly, giving her appreciation for the invitation to remain with her husband.

The young male in the den was the first to perk up and announces that he wanted to stay. That's good. Amara looked to the cubs again as she is asked if they were cute. Had she ever thought her own cubs were cute? Was that something she was supposed to think? She gave a nod to appease the cub before looking to @Pyracantha who seemed to wish to stay as well. Very well. Once you have rested and eaten, find me so we can get to know each other better. She managed to keep her tone as friendly as she could. No need to scare her off right away. Welcome to Wolfbron. She slipped out and waited till Tripfire returned before leaving the new family to get settled in.

Rrturning with a small warthog piglet he nodded to Amara while she waited for his return. Appreciative of her guarding them,, even if she might not see it that way. Entering the den he placed the meal off to the side closest to Pyracantha. Within easy reach so she did not have to move unnecessarily to reach it. A gently nudge was given to Beñat and then to Pyracantha, "Come to bed Beñat, we need rest," he urged his son while retaking his position behind his wife. Nuzzling her neck softly inhaling her scent he would close his eyes and breathe out against her, "You can rest now mon amour, no one else will disturb you," he promised her, for Amara was the only one that had any right to disturb the family and that had been done with. Feeling Beñat crawl atop of him to nuzzle into his mane he chuckled allowing sleep to take over him. At last he was home and whole again.

Feeling his mother nudge him he looked at her then back at Amara expectantly, when she nodded he grinned widely looking down at his siblings with a clear sense of pride. Yeah they were definitely cute! Pyracantha agreed to stay, and well duh of course she would! This was their home! well.. ok technically his second home because mamié Asteria and Naz had said the jungle would be his home too. Amara left and as he struggled to crawl over Pyracantha papa was returning with a meal. But before he could even attempt to get close Tripfire was coaxing him back to bed while he resumed his position behind mama. Quickly he moved to knead onto Tripfires mane until he cuddled up into it, falling asleep quickly. It had been exhausting all this excitement!

Pyracantha nodded at the woman's words and looked to the cubs then back to Amara, the calico lioness was wary, something was off about the Wolfbron Sovereign, maybe not out right, but there was something in the eyes of the sovereign that caused Pyracantha to bite her tongue and instead speak respectively as if nothing was amiss, Let's hope for a speedy recovery, I would enjoy getting to know any of Trips family better. She stated respectfully, her lilac eyes casting a glance to her son before she said her goodbyes as the lioness left.

It wasn't too long before Tripfire came through the dens opening with a warthog piglet and sat it in front of her, she sniled softly and nuzzles him lovingly, watching as Benat moved to curl up with his father, the two cubs were tucked in next to her as she glanced to them, eyes softening. This definitely was home.
