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!

With the new season overhead, Neculai set out to catch some fresh prey for the caches.

His stride was strong as he moved through the pride lands, something that had taken only a bit for him to adjust to. He wasn't sure what prey might be deep within the caves with them; but he was more than ready to find out and learn. In fact, he saw it almost as a game - to discover as much as he could.

A chuff is sent out, inviting any of his family to join him upon the hunt, if any others were available to help him. He would wait, patient, but with the lashing of his tail it was obvious he was itching to chase some prey.

The nitty gritty work of hunting was not Sorine’s favorite way to pass her time, but she knew just as well as anyone else that it was necessary for everyone to pitch in when it came to keeping a pride well fed. So, when the chuff came to call for a hunt, she was quick to rise, navigating her way through the tunnels as best she could, glad to find that the one who had called was not far from where she had been. She gave Neculai a warm smile before taking a position off to the side of the tunnel, making sure there was room for anyone else who would join them.

Living in the Hollow was proving to be a lot quieter than she was anticipating. The lions that were present often kept to themselves for the most part which was fine for her. Ember was an enigmatic rogue after all and normally kept to wandering the pride or continuing her antics in the neutral territories. Though, now it was kept closer to this place because that was what she knew was expected of her. Now, though, she was simply pacing the western borders of the Hollow and keeping an ear out for trouble. Letting her fire eyes keep to the horizon and the sands beyond for anything that might prove important to alert Alexander about. So far, it was nothing and her mind was beginning to grow tired.

Thankfully, a call sounded to the east that seemed related to a hunt she imagined. So she halted her patrol and moved inward, letting herself be carried to the gathering of two sole lions. Two that she had not yet met, the male looking very Savante like and the other bearing a similar nose marking to the male but didn't look as Savante. Though, at this rate, she was still going to make the assumption that everyone was related to Alexander until proven otherwise. So with a nod and a half-hearted smile to both @Sorine and @Neculai, she waited for further instructions or the signal to go.

A thought something along the lines of "uuuuuuuuugh sjdkdjskfd" resounded in Angelo's head when he heard the call for a hunt. He really wasn't fond of the effort involved in such things, but he also knew that they had a lot of mouths to feed, especially with the new cubs, and therefore it was necessary. So he forced himself to get up from the sun spot he'd managed to find within the tunnels, so nicely created by a crack in the roof, and hauled himself to the little gathering. He didn't smell anything in the immediate vicinity, but then he supposed Neculai wouldn't have been stupid enough to audibly call for them if something was nearby. Oh great, now they were going to have to go track the thing down too.

He was typically one to prefer hunting at night (along with everything else in his life, to be honest), but if there was a call for it he wouldn't refuse. That was part of being within the pride, and the family. So he roused himself from his light slumber and made his way to join the gathering group. He wasn't certain what they would be hunting, but no doubt they could use all the paws they could get. He also wasn't certain if they were going to be hunting within the Hollow or outside of it, but he figured if they were going to be doing so within the Hollow he would be a benefit to the group considering he was used to doing so in low light conditions.

Dmitri dipped his head in greeting to those who had come to join them, figuring they were waiting to see just how many would show up before setting off properly.

Alexander slipped into the caverns and found himself joining a few others as the scent of prey lingered within the halls. The chuff of his younger sibling had easily caught his attention - and he was grateful the other was taking the initiative to gather the members together. Tail tip flicks lightly, his body lowering somewhat as those blue eyes of his narrow upon @Neculai, "I smell something, do you know which direction it is coming from? What it might be?" He murmurs, keeping his voice low and attention focused. The pride needed to expand it's cache - a few hunts may be in order.

Wandering the areas outside of the Hollows, Juliette had tested out her scent bearing skills. Brushing against the trees out to the west and keeping her body relatively covered whether it be in snow or debris. Mostly snow and the smell of the trees, of course, given that she did not wish to be smothered in nature for the moment. Only enough so that one wouldn't immediately tell that she was a Hollows member. Likely not the smartest idea as she trailed herself to a gathering of hunters.

Quietly she began her approach to the others that were gathered. A slow, wandering gait as she passed a couple before settling in the middle of them, letting her feminine gaze travel among the many. It seemed she was in good company and hoped that none of them immediately attempted to tackle her for not smelling quite so Hollow-y.

Unless told ICly, your character should not know that Juliette is a Valour.

A chuff is heard and the newest royalty member of the Hollow is eager to join in the fun. Moving through the tunnels and caverns until he came to the growing crowd. Some were faces he knew - perhaps majority were faces he knew or knew of - but with it being as dark as it could be in a cave, he wasn't sure and wasn't really looking either as he would come to stand near the crowd in silence. His mismatched jewels glanced around looking for what they were going for but found nothing and figured they'd find something out there eventually.

Perhaps it was a shift in the seasons that had Camellia feeling frisky. Bottled energy was not contained by her normal duties and so Camellia had taken to the halls of the Hollow when the call to hunt had sounded. A bit of exercise would do her body good. She located the gathering ground and gazed about at those gathered. She would stroll past Angelo and accidentally bump her hip against him as she slid past, flicking her tail under his chin as she went. Her eyes would linger on Dmitri for a long moment. The handsome tiger was an impressive beast, large in stature with striking markings. The son of the General himself. Camellia pulled her gaze away as she felt a strange warmth, shaking her head to rid herself of the sensation. What in the world had gotten into her?

The hunt was being led by one of here nephews. Camellia would look to him for the hunting party’s next move.
