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.

Hi, Nice To Meet You
      |   #11
Raizel had been so busy pondering about her own arrival that she realized that she never actually answered @Darcy's question. "Oh goodness. How rude, I failed to answer your question. I've been in the pride since summer, I think July. But I wandered around this place for almost a year before I was found by Cassandra and was invited to join when I ran into her in the Grove." If she could blush at her embarrassment, she would have. When Darcy said it hadn't been Eisa but instead a different yearling, she pondered about the name. It was very vague to her as Analia might have joined in one of the hunts she called for the pride, but she didn't quite know the name. At the question, Raizel nodded slightly. "Eisa is one of Cassandra's daughters. She's a dark red with a mane growing. She's a Ranger like I am." Eisa was also a royal cub, so she assumed that Analia was also one of Cassandra's daughters.

Darcy hadn’t taken offense to @Raizel not answering her question about her time here. She figured that if she didn’t want to answer it why focus on the fact it hadn’t been answered. However it seemed the youngster had just not realized she had done so until now. Hearing the story she listened curiously. "A year? On my it sounds like you had an adventure before finding a place to call home." smiling as she spoke gently. "Though not like I am one to talk I was technically Pride less for seven of my nine years of life." She cooed with a small giggle at the end.

Listening to the description of Eisa she took notes in case she ran into them. "Now call me ignorant but this Cassandra she is high ranking? I am saddened to say I haven’t had a chance to meet any of the highest ranking officials yet of the pride." Yes the elder did just admit to not knowing who her leader was. Hopefully she isn’t looked too down upon for her lack of knowledge on the matter.

When @Darcy had talked about being prideless for seven years, her jaw nearly dropped. It made her single year being a rogue here seem so pitiful. "Before I came to these lands, I used to live in a place called Gaia. The Clan that I was a part of had me go on my Journey when I turned two years old and while I was gone, a volcano erupted and a rockslide blocked the passage back home. So I went wandering for over a year before I arrived here." Pondering about her Journey and learning the techniques that helped her become the Ranger that she was now made her smile slightly. Then came another question, this time about Cassandra. Nodding slowly, Raizel confirmed. "Yes, Cassandra is the High Sovereign and Revna is the Sovereign." She was still learning more about the pride and who was ranked where.

A place called Gaia huh? Listening to the story she thought about all that she had seen. All the places she had been, but none of it had been Gaia. "Interesting. I have never heard of Gaia." She commented pausing for a moment before continuing. "I am sorry for the loss of your homeland, but at least you are safe here." Her story wasn’t anything as grand as two natural disasters hitting her homeland. "I was born to a nomadic family. Following the herds, but never really staying anywhere for more than a few months." It wasn’t the best upbringing but hey she was alive. Which was more than she could say about her nonexistent family. Maybe here she’ll finally find herself a family. Worse come to worse she’ll just adopt some of these youngsters. Everyone needs an adoptive grandmother. Right? "Ah well that is very good to know I shall keep that in mind when meeting others." She said calmly as she rose to her paws. Having had a nice chat she decided that maybe she had taken up enough of the pink girl’s time, but didn’t want to be rude and just randomly depart mind conversation.

When the other lioness mentioned that she had never heard of Gaia before, Raizel nodded slowly. It was very far from here and it was not an easy trek. At her apologies about the loss of her homeland, she shook her head slowly. "It is a shame but I cannot mourn for it. The Spirits ways are not understood but everything happens for a reason. Maybe my Journey meant for me to come here." She had no family here and unknown to her, there were two other unknown Gaia natives who had come to these lands due to the passages closing off. "I've heard of those before. There were sub-groups of some Clans that did that. They traveled with the herds." Then there was the comment about meeting others and Raizel nodded slowly. She was glad to give some insight about the pride's leaders. Then @Darcy stood and the pink lioness realized that they had been chatting a while. "I believe I'm going to check out some of the other caches and see which ones need filling. It was a pleasure to make your acquaintance and hope to be blessed with your help in some of the hunts." Smiling lightly, she dipped her head and then headed off to do her job. Not knowing that she was going to run into Cassandra later.

Ah so the girl has been blessed with knowledge about nomadic cultures that was interesting. Maybe there was something like that here in Amaryllis? Maybe but maybe not. Being an island she couldn’t see how being a nomadic group with all these warring competing prides would be beneficial to them or the lifestyle. In any case as the pink youngster stood up and spoke some more she nodded. They had indeed been chatting for a while and she had interrupted the girl during her work. "A pleasure meeting you again dear and I look forward to helping out in future hunts. Please be well until next we meet." Giving her goodbye she smiled as the other walked off. Turning she left herself to see who else was around.
