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 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.

War and battle is nothing new to the man, even if fighting isn’t exactly his style. Oh, he can throw himself around if needed, but that is much more his husband’s skill. Azriael appears behind the man, pressing into his side.

"So much for a peaceful retirement," he hums softly, more amused than anything else. His purple eyes narrow on the fights taking place. "I don’t fancy moving again, my love." He says only for @Wolfgang to hear, lest his words be taken the wrong way. The dark Bezra will understand, surely. Loyalty is fickle at best, and the husbands have not been here so long that they will be missed in the exodus should their queen fall.

"Oh, what a nasty pride." Azriael comments when he sees the Plains king fighting one of the Brook for her right to live where she wishes, and others of his ilk ripping into other Brook lions. "Taking advantage of a pride challenge to come in here and steal." He huffs, speaking louder now, his comments and gaze directed toward the loitering trespassers gathered near. "Cowards, the lot of you."

OOC: Az is talking shit to @Vermier, @Aeistrios and anyone else nearby with them.

He is not completely unaware of the chaos unfolding around him while he is in the midst of a battle dance. He can hear it, the sounds of claws against skin, bodies clashing together - scents mingling so much he can't tell who is who as he finds himself engorged with the smell of only Neytiri. As much as he would love to watch, love to see what his actions sparked by trying to steal this beauty away - he must first win her.

Which, was proving a bit difficult.

She was a seductress in his mind now, someone who knew their body and knew it well - and knew him enough to know she could easily use that to her advantage. Blood trickles from where her fangs had enclosed around his maw, and he is rather surprised when she gives up the hold there, as well as to his forelimb. With his freedom to move his jaws again, Aeistrios sends her a glare full of warning. He did not want to scar her, did not want to injure her too badly... but gods she was pushing him.

His limbs spread out, balancing his fat weight before she rams forward again, closing the distance she had once made. He is not used to a female being so huge, and he feels his weight waver a bit, a throbbing pain in his shoulder. Luckily enough, Aeistrios had veered his head backwards to avoid his face getting anymore injuries, and her fangs bite down upon the thick of his mane - although he feels the sharp tinge of pain where her teeth had pierced some of his skin underneath.

While having her so close, Aeistrios attempts to splay his jaws and try to grab roughly at her neck, mainly for her nape. His power mindful, he did not want to pierce skin but rather obtain a hold secure enough to try and force his strength down on her. Likewise, he also attempts to use a forelimb to try and hit at one of her own - seeking to aim and knock her off her feet.

'What could he have done to me?'

She has always been a monster, a creature that is used mostly for a warning. A lioness with a tagline. There's something wrong with Helah. She knows exactly what the male could have done to Revna, for had it been any other lion or lioness- she would have done the same things. Though she knows not, if the Mire lions truly have her level of depravity in mind, she wonders why her mind frets over the safety of @Revna.

"I could enlighten you, if you'd just cooperate." She huffs. She doesn't want to do those things to her, does not want to harm Revna. The fight that ensues is one of the stupidest Helah has ever been in. No claws, no teeth, and yet her body aches and throbs.

Helah cannot think of a time, as Revna's paws and legs buckle beneath her- that victory ever tasted so bitter. She sighs softly, panting quietly, as she lowers her head to sniff at Revna, to see if she is okay- to whisper. "I didn't want to hurt you." Soft words, meant only for the female, as her gaze narrows- focusing on tending to her possession, more than anything. It is possessive, not caring- and should never be confused as such. Helah's mind switches wildly from throwing herself into another fight, as the adrenaline courses through her... and from working to get Revna out of there- to her den, where she can be protected from herself.

"Get up. I don't care if your wife comes too but we have to get out of here." She orders softly, before inevitably, things go to shit further.

This red bastard was nothing to her - he was merely a target that needed to be felled. A threat to her home and her family. A threat to the young cubs she had tucked away in the den that had no idea of what was going on with their mother. She didn't know how she'd explain losing their home to the five of them if she fell here today. That's what kept her going in this fight. Knowing that she had a promise to uphold to the entire pride that called the Brook home, and those who had young cubs within the safety of the Brook.

His paws end up on the ground now, both of them finally standing fully on the ground once more. Her headbutt into his neck is successful, taking his breath away temporarily. His teeth would find purchase around her nose bridge, and she would aim to rip her head away after from his jaws. She would not be held down in any way - not if she still had a say in it. Her front legs no longer needing to keep her from falling, Cassandra would aim to lunge both of them forward in a last attempt to rip at anything within reach - be it his shoulders, legs or chest. Her aim was anywhere within reach, and she was aiming to rip and shred should her claws find purchase.

Approaching steps make her turn, expecting to see her wife. But... no. It certainly is not Revna. Her gaze flutters to him, turning shy as she shrinks into herself. As big as she is, it's no real illusion -- proven as @Caelum stays by her side, purring softly. He is familiar but only vaguely -- the sense of unease more evident than the memory of why. The war at the mire had been a blur of blood and snapping limbs; she spent so long trying to forget that she remembered little of the specifics.

She remembers enough, though, to know that he shouldn't be here.

Her smile is thin, fragile -- ears duck against her skull momentarily, as if she's sheepish about her state. E-excuse me, she says, rising to her paws -- clearly intent on leaving him here. The fight raged on for the brook but she's barely paying attention to it as it is. Missing so much of what is happening in front of her, missing the most important thing in front of her.

( but the danger will not miss her. )

Her attacks land precisely where she wanted them too, the metallic taste of blood coating her tongue. Delicious. The thought was practically a purr in her mind, even as a new kind of pain spread across her ribs as teeth scraped and ripped the thin flesh spread over her ribcage, a thin stream of blood trickling down her chest. With a muffled snarl, she attempted to latch down on his flank with her teeth, shaking her head wildly from side to side in the hopes of causing more damage to the limb. It was evident this was not his first time getting torn up, but she hoped to leave a few marks of her own behind by the time the battle was done.

Revna knew she had lost the moment her vision went black from the impact of @Helah's paw against her skull. Her head aches from both impacts and she is disoriented, feeling weak. Her heart still wants to resist but her body cannot.

Helah's words barely reach her in her daze. She hears the word enlighten but does not remember what she said to elicit such a response from the woman. She is aware enough to feel as Helah nears her, sniffing, checking her before whispering soft words. "Hurt can be more than just physical," she replies coldly, none of the flirtatious tone she often had with Helah present jn her words now. For though she does not remember the last few moments of the fight, she does remember why they were fighting.

But she is tired, oh so tired. The theft challenge had been so quiet, more of an argument than anything else, that no one around them really seems to notice what is going on. Revna glances around to the chaos of what has turned into a war between the factions. Cassandra still fights, and so do others. Her battle with Helah had been short in the grand scheme of things. What's worse is that she can no longer see her wife. She has lost sight of her in the chaos.

There is no rescue for her today.

She pushes herself to her feet, dizzy and unstable. But she is coherent enough to turn a glower on Helah. "If any harm comes to my wife because of this," she threatens, softly and darkly. "I will end you." Because her wife is currently unseen, blocked by the beast that had threatened her before, and Revna cannot see her. Anxiety hums through her body, but there is so little she can do right now. It is out of her paws.

When @Revna answers her, Helah scoffs softly. "Those kinds of hurts are easily survivable." She says matter-of-factly. She aims to nudge her with her head, to push her up to her feet- as Helah's gaze leaves her to study the crowds around them. Cassandra still fights, and so do others. She huffs softly, her gaze coming back to the female before her, when she speaks.

"Hold on to that. It'll keep you going." She says, as her gaze leaves, looking for this wife. She can see her by a large male, and she frowns- but that isn't her focus. "Would you like me to claim her too?" A pointed question, but surely is she not left in safer paws on her own?

"Come. We must go." She urged, trying to push her head against Revna to steer her away from there. Away from the chaos. Helah is done here, and wants to get out of here before anyone can realize what has occurred.
