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!

halimede.

The sound of the waves lulled Halimede into a blissful nap. Her body was sore, claws sharpened from nearby rocks and stature lithe and loose but so utterly exhausted. She'd run here nearly all the way from the Plains, hoping to regather the strength she'd once had. And yet, the temptation of a warm den by the sea would never be one passed up, and Halimede quickly shuffled into the dark hovel, securing a blissful place to snooze, even as the gathering group of eager hunters outside could be heard above the muffled sounds of the sea.

Lune found herself among the lapping waves once more. Overhead she could hear the soft calling of seagulls. As Lune walked along the cool shore, she kept her eyes on the greenery and brush looking for herbs to collect. She studied the small flowers, the long leaves, looking for anything of interest. The stretch of the salty waves were almost over powering as she hunted for herbs. Lune spotted some orange flowers and made a beeline for the plant. Noting the spikey, long leaves she moved around the plant, digging up the soft dark earth. Lune snapped off a couple of the leaves and looked around before placing her collection next to a grey rock.

She is not a lone with her thoughts for long before she hears the call. Lune yanks up some clumps of grass to cover her herbs before making her way towards the sound of the hunt call. She joins the ranks of her fellow hunters, read y to take on what prey comes their way.

There's a chuff which Ianthe only faintly hears over the cascade of waves. She looks up from her task of herb gathering to see the convergence of hungry lions, stalking across the black sands.
Ianthe picks up one more of the herbs for good measure and stuffs it with its brethren. A nursing lion might be grateful that Ianthe is going to all this trouble, someday, if anyone in Ecrosia decides to do her a favor and pop out a few cubs.
Leaving behind the rest of the aloe plant to regrow, the mire princess races off to add herself to the hunt.

she strolls in at the call for a hunt - and while it is not the kind she is accustomed to, or even the kind she desires, she supposes it is wise to band together to take down large enough prey to satiate them. she could bring something home to ludivine and gauthier, she supposes. so léontine eases in amongst the lions, winding between them with a keen interest on her gaze as she sweeps them across the assembled creatures. strangers, the lot of them, but she supposes most will be.

but, oh.
there.

her gaze narrows on @Xavier and she offers a simpering smirk, fangs flashing from behind dark lips. she says nothing to him, merely settles in at the edge of the group, watching. waiting. looking for all the world patient and uninterested, even while she files away the scents and faces of those around her.

Swift off the mark she is; low and black and glistened with salty spray. The young lioness would yield to the huntresses beckons with eagerness palpable in the quiver of muscles and the intensity of her stare. As always, Aphid is as keen to socialize as she is to feast - and she is quick to target @Léontine in the crowd, a stranger, but not for long.

"Let me get that for you," she offers with a smile, her slinky body language mostly forgotten as the maned youth sought to gesture to a protruding thorn upon the woman's elbow. Unless the mahogany woman protested, Aphid would be rather quick to reach up and flick it out - never one for reservation or bashful unease.

Autumn winds skim the dark ocean, sending great surges of water leaping up from the sea's surface only to return to the foamy wash below. The sky is a steely pewter, and Kai thinks it's beautiful; the ocean's roaming blackness rolling dull and leaden. But he can't linger on it long; he has to resume his search. Cape aloe is hard to miss, its firebrand red color decidedly conspicuous against the beach's ebony shores.

Once he finds the exotic plant, he rakes a claw across its length in an attempt to seperate the leaves. Then he hears it, a series of quiet chuffs, barely audible above the steady drum-roll of the sea. He quickly bunches the herbs against the base of a palm tree and meanders his way over to the source of the sound. A huge assembly of lions have gathered already, and he files in quietly, hopeful he might be of some use.

It were a smaller, quainter hunt, mercifully. But perhaps against their better judgment, it were an elephant they'd decided to pursue. Kvare had to dodge and weave in order to avoid its large tusks and angrily flailing limbs, and it might have stepped on the tip of his tail once or twice, eliciting a surprised and pained snarl out of the King. However, the lions were victorious, and after keen persistence they finally managed to fell the beast. Though its skin tough and meat stringy (though, it's skin had done wonders in honing his claws, and the sharpening of them had not gone to waste), an elephant would provide a worthy meal, and Kvare had plenty to take back with him to the Cove.

The ground had begun to rumble, disrupting her herbs, bouncing them free of their neatly-organized pile with every frantic thundering step. When Melusina's gaze lifted, she finally saw the group of hunters sprinting across the terrain after it, nipping at its heels until it finally stumbled into the ground. The aspiring medic quickly scooped up her stores and placed them into her makeshift bag, quickly scampering away from the hunt in an attempt to avoid the dangerous path of the elephant before they finally finished it off. No amount of meal was worth getting absolutely squished by a large foot.

An elephant was perhaps the worst distraction he could have happened upon, but it was a blessing that they'd been successful in taking down such a large and domineering presence. Though Xavier had been distracted, his gaze consistently gleaning back out toward the storms in the distant sea, he'd managed himself enough to not get killed by the beast while managing to further his strength and endurance trainings, to assist in snapping at its heels enough to cause it to trip, to stumble, to fall. And when it had finally taken its last breath, he would eagerly take what he could from it, intent on bringing home a larger portion of meal, preparing for the oncoming winter.

He figured that the only way to prepare against the storm and protect his pride would to be keeping them well-stocked for the winter, to keep from starving.
