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.

This were familiar territory. Even though the snow had long begun to claim the mountainsides, had long plunged Amaryllis into the familiarity of creeping winter, Ashaera found no better place to hunt than this. She need not Arwen's help, but the gyrfalcon still lurked above head, ever a keen eye in case she'd stumbled upon something rare and delectable. Despite being a rogue, she'd been pleasantly well-fed and keen, taking advantage of the surplus of prey while it lasted before the long winter would eventually settle in.

It wasn't uncommon to find her wildling cousin in the same haunts as she. They were of flesh and temperament alike. Yavanna could usually spot her bird before she spotted the pale woman and this time was no different. It was cold and moving around the mountains burned through her energy and strained her muscles in the best way. She makes it obvious that she is around though she is sure that the bird has already made some kind of announcement. "Ground is starting to slip." Yavanna points out in reference to the soft snow and the dirt deep beneath freezing as it gets colder thus making it harder for some to gain traction. Should someone find themselves too close to a slope around here and they slip — funeral pyres.

The Peak was nearly too dangerous for her, but Aurelia grew more and more confident each day. Hastily did she ascend the mountainside, finding the steadiest and most worn paths. The land were barren, save a few straggling hunters, and Aurelia was delighted by the idea that she would not soon have to be alone in this endeavor. Quickly, she managed her way down to where the two women had begun to gather, her gaze slipping between the two; one of the Summit, and one rogue. They were tracking something, if Aurelia had to guess, their prey would likely have height advantage over them. We should set a trap, she suggested, a slender curve of her brow raising, Let them walk into us. And perhaps, if she were right, it would be easy hunting.

He'd been meaning to return to the Summit, but by the time he reached Freyr Peak, he was exhausted. The air here was thinner, colder, and Kvare had spent much of his time as of late training, practicing, preparing. He had finally decided to settle down for the night when he heard the tell-tale rumbling of rocks nearby, disturbed debris indicative that others were rounding the corner. At first, he reacted defensively, but as the group trudged forward as if tracking something, the Caladan King quietly fell into line beside them, instinct driving him even as his legs begged to slow.

The bright light of day spurred the girl on. She huffed as the crisp mountain air punched down her throat with what should could only assume were little daggers forged from ice. Lune hung back from the jagged edges of the peaks, fearing the ramifications of a nasty tumble down to the rocky depths beneath. Slowly, Lune began the trek down a narrow path towards luscious slopes bursting with bright greenery. A wide smile bloomed across her porcelain face as she spotted the rounded orange body of mangoes hanging from a leafy mango tree. Lune quickened her pace to reach the tree, sending small rocks scattering through the grassy slope. With her goods resting by her feet, Lune surveyed the surrounding areas studying its meandering curves and rocky edges. Caught off guard by the rugged beauty of it all, she let out a soft sigh. Her reverie was brief as something in the breeze caught her attention. Lune shifted, covering her mangoes with fallen leaves, before following the scent. She did not have to travel far before she first caught scent, and then laid eyes on the others gathering. Joining the group she looked around at their faces and gave them a small nod. Let's get this party started.

Long had the time passed for him to return home. Radahn had spent enough time away from the Summit, desperate to growth his strength and resolve. Perhaps it were a sign, then, that he stumbled upon that last fleeting group of hunters when he had. The peak had jagged cliffsides and a solidifying snowpack, a threat of winter swiftly approaching. If they were to steer the herd onto a patch of ice, perhaps they could disrupt their run enough; it were just as dicey for them, however, but Radahn were used to the rough terrain of the mountains, and could outsmart them.

the place is cold and it's full of ice that can make any creature slip into depths unknown. she only knows to go where the fresh footprints lay, until she sees lions preparing themselves for a hunt. there are too many places to slip into and stay until the prey appears. several cave systems lay within the uneven peaks; she can also make a snowy den for herself, if she has the time and interest. instead, faustine notices a familiar figure, one whose eye catches her attention and causes her to smirk with greed. i did that she thinks as she slips near him and attempts to grab @Radahn's attention by pushing her shoulder against his. this may be a hunt, but faustine will make sure the illyrian boy remembers her face, even if his permanent injury is there. still, she's ready to play her part in this gathering as well, but the greedy part of her wants to not only take her cake but also radahn's too.

The peak was well equipped with hiding places for the tiny Queen. The mountainside was lush, and the curving trails left plenty of blindspots for her to take advantage of, but she tried to stay off the path wherever she could. She had dipped into a stream at the base of the peak to wash her scent away before making her way through the foliage, rubbing against trees and herbs and other fragrant foliage to try and take on the scent of the wild, untamed lands she trekked through. She kept her body low, using large brush to keep her from view of the group of lions that had begun to gather. She had taken part in many of these random hunts earlier on in the days of Lorien, but for now, she was more interested in learning the land, and staying hidden.

Heights were weird and she wasn't too sure how she felt about this land, noting the large extent of the territory and studying just how intimidating it was, the landscape and all. Taking in a breath, she edges closer to the forming group with a look of caution, not wanting to take a plunge off. Using the leaves and grass around she had passed up, she attempts to cover and hide her scent from being noticed. Then, she curves off to the side, aiming to remain hidden among all the gathering people, wanting to see just what exactly they were up to here.

There were already a bitter chill here. One that caused even the Dieudonne prince to shudder. The horizon had long grown bleaker and bleaker as time passed, and it appeared he were not the only one keen on stocking up for the long-approaching winter. His eyes narrowed against the distant horizon, trotting up toward the group where before he'd been nearly sprinting across the tundra just prior, intent on exercising his strength and endurance. He could feel the burning still in his legs, begging him to stop; but with such a threat looming upon the horizon, Xavier had no choice but to listen to his instincts.
