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.

Spring had been a welcome thing for her, as she wandered through the fields. The flowers and herbs were slowly opening for fresh growth, their floral and fragrant scent strong as they grew further and further. She had rolled in some of the fresh herbs, as she tracked the tracks through the grasses- her nose low to the earth as she followed the scent of prey.

It is only when she draws nearer, that she comes to a halt, that she lets out a soft chuff- alerting anyone nearby that prey is present- and perhaps they could have a hunting party if they wished.

she was starving. the cove wasn't the first place one could find fresh meat to hunt, unless they were lucky enough to encounter a lost beast in their midst. whatever hunt they had were stored in the cache, but diantha's taste leaned more towards a newly killed type that she hunted down.

the fallen princess thus made her way out of her prideland and into the neutral lands. the chances of catching bigger, meatier prey was abundant here, and with the addition of a hunting party, she may be able to gorge herself with delicacies the cove have yet to take down.

there was enough hiding spots amongst celosia for diantha to find her perch, settling low in the grass blades. her eyes narrowed as they took in the sight before her, keen to watch for a sign of prey movement.

The lanky yearling found herself in the fields quite a bit because it wasn't super far from the Brook. When she had scented the prey, she had set to work on tracking it- following the cloven hoof prints along a trail, as she scented it- taking in all the strange scents. The hooves of whatever animal had made this had bigger paws... hooves? than she did! She paused in her tracking, placing a paw near the track to compare the size- her eyes widening as she studied it.

Shaking her head, she follows the tracks, until she nearly stumbles onto another pair of lionesses, and immediately drops into a crouch- because they looked serious! Like they were hunting. She moved up beside them, willing to be a distraction, or a runner though she knew she still lacked the strength to take anything huge down yet- that didn't mean she couldn't help!

The arrival of spring has proven exceptionally advantageous to the prince, considering his budding interest in the various flowers and herbs popping up all over the place. Or rather, his budding interest in the uses that the flora might offer him. Not all of them pleasant.

He's poking around a towering plant with vibrant crimson petals, carefully shifting the blossoms around with a claw to examine it, when the quiet call for a hunt perks his ears. Curious. Is it something the prince should bother himself with? It certainly sounds more exciting, if nothing else.

He rolls himself quickly through another patch of nearby flowers (which he's fairly certain aren't poisonous), and then lightly trots toward the sound, crouching to try to better hide his dark form within the grasses. He remains as silent as he can as he approaches, tail tip twitching in anticipation behind. Waiting for the signal that is sure to come.

Carnivore and voyeur

Hunger, yearning. A desire for blood, for flesh. It draws the beastly leviathan forward as he feels the warmth of congregating bodies packed among the fields. The scent of prey lingers upon the atmosphere and Harou follows it, obsessively. His jaws taste the wind, a delicious cocktail of potential flavour against his tongue; the promise of a feast, goading him with hungry, predatory thrill. Wordlessly he slips by, a dark raven-kissed shadow; a sentinel, a fiend. He looks at their faces. Oh, he could eat anyone. Anything. But for now, he feels like a gentleman, as a toothy sneer gathers against the sable lines of his jaws.

Hunting, fighting. That's how he spends his time now. He avoids everyone, anyone; expect for moments like these. Perhaps, that is how he feels most like himself; when there is blood in his mouth and his veins are pumped full of adrenaline. Anything to distract him from the pain that still ached in his chest. Quielty, the hulking mass of the lean, rugged soldier draws forward to join them. He greets them wordlessly, wearily, with cold, unfeeling eyes and a soft scowl carved into his disheveled countenance.

The pepto pink lioness hadn't gone on a larger animal hunt since the mammoth was taken down. She had mostly focused on smaller prey that she could take down herself but Raizel was getting tired of having the same thing. The Ranger wanted some variety and felt her stomach gurgle at the thought of having something new. Flicking her tail nub behind her, she found a place where the rain had made a nice mud puddle. Gliding her body downwards, the pink lioness covered herself in the sticky mud until she turned brown. Only her matching colored eyes showed the true color of her pelt. As she finished up, there was the sound of a chuff. Barely detectable, which meant that prey was nearby.

No need to panic! A stampede would not be an ideal situation and so she kept her body low to the ground as she crawled forward. Picking up the scents of several others in the area, she ventured towards the one who called for the hunt. Awaiting the signal to cast forward, her claws extended out as they readied themselves to launch her body forwards.

Though she smelled strongly of herbs, so strongly- it seemed the bongo hadn't noted her- she noted the arrival of others. The group grew until there were seven of them to take down the animal. Ansella, rather liked those odds. As they moved, and the beast was killed- she waited patiently for those who had joined her to get their fair share of the meat, before she would move to take some of what was left back to the pride- and eat some of it for herself- to keep her own strength up, before heading back. A successful day, over all.

Her muscles quivered where she remained crouched, and waiting until a signal was given, apparently because everyone began moving. Eisa lunged into the action- doing what she could to chase the Bongo into others paws, doing what she could to participate, and learn from them. When the beast finally crumpled, she waited, and then would move forward to take a chunk of the meat with a triumphant smile. She was excited to take it home- to show her parents, and siblings- and tell them about her hunt! Anything she could contribute to the Brook was good, and anything that made her a better hunter was considered a success!

As she went home, she would make sure to pause by the hoof tracks, and study them again, compared to her own- so she maybe could remember the size and style to perhaps know what kind of hooved animal they belonged to?
