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.

Allure was quite familiar with the herbs within Amethyst Grove. She had spent plenty of time within the area searching for herbs and desperately trying to heal Anthonius’ dire wounds. He was in bad shape, and she could never have enough herbs, especially with winter so close. She spotted a particularly helpful plant with star shaped green flowers and quickly stopped to collect it. The plant was still quite healthy for the season, and it seemed to grow quite plentifully in the area, so she didn’t feel bad about digging the plant up carefully to harvest the roots along with a few stems and their leaves. She would leave it set to the side for now near where the others gathered, but would make sure not to forget to pick it up later.

She's nudged awake just seconds before a familiar call reaches her ears — the wicked grin on @Léontine's face didn't promise anything good to come of it, which only made it that much more interesting to Ludivine. She leaves the heathen at their side behind as she follows behind the maroon lioness, quiet in her approach as she can practically see the giddiness in her sister. How sadistic — a true cannibal queen. The grin on her face at the sight quickly dies as they approach their target and the sop of the bog begins to tug at their limbs. Ugh. No wonder she'd never been here before.

Ludivine scouts around, taking in the thick, murky mud that seemed to make up the majority of the ground underfoot. Her sister takes the best approach of leaping onto a nearby log to get on some solid ground and Ludivine follows suit with a different log, enjoying the lack of mud sucking at her as she finally climbs upwards. Her gaze drifts over the leader of the ground — a familiar face in @Faustine — but she remains quiet for now, content to take down a different kind of prey. For now, at least.

The earth beneath heavy feet was thick with the soft swampy grounds of the bog. Yavanna had ached to stretch her muscles as the day went on, boredom resonating in the muscles beneath her thick coat. It gave good traction to a run and Yavanna favored it over many because she could also coat herself in the mud should the sun prove to annoy her too much. Taking a break from her run, she found a thicker tree that would hold the bulk of her weight as she threw her unsheathed claws at it begging to be sharpened even as she finally paid attention to the gathering of lions in preparation for a hunt. She would join them when something actually happened. Right now she was having fun assaulting the tree.

His expression soured with each step. The terrain clung to the pale lion far more than he did to it, gobs of rich, unknowable muck attaching itself to the white furs of his pelt. Jethro pressed on with one goal in mind: to not miss out on whatever crew of lions was assembling in that forsaken bog. If there was a meal to be had and muscle to be gained, he wanted in.

Jethro stalked alongside that group of strangers, many of whom proved familiar from past encounters at such events. He rolled his shoulders in a nice flex before surging forward to try and aid in the group's strength, eager to learn and grow now that he had secured his family a home at last.

She was just returning home to Ecrosia for the night when she smelled them – a gathering of lions on the breeze paired with the tantalizing aroma of prey. Hekate pivoted to stalk toward them through the bog, her paws plenty practiced at moving through such dense terrain. She attempted to come up to Ianthe's side.

"By ancient wisdom and nature's grace, may your aim be true and your quarry embrace its fate."

Clover eyes turned to try and meet their matching set as she uttered the prayer of blessing, sure that her sister must know the words by then. Thus far, they had seemed to work wonders in securing their target for the group.

He’d never strayed beyond the border before. The pride boundary had always been well-defined, which had allowed Zephyr to explore its territory without fear of losing his way back to the den. That day though, he had woke up with a need to expand his knowledge about the world. He had wanted to know what existed beyond the trees that had walled him in, and so he’d quietly slipped through them, into the neighboring grove.

The ground below him had slowly turned soft under his paws, and soon squishy — an observation he made as he wandered toward the bog, following the waterways that wove through it so he could backtrack later. The air became rancid, making his nose wrinkle deeply. Somehow, through the stench, he noted the scents of other lions and hastily found some brush to hide beneath. He didn’t know who they were or what they were doing. For now, the boy would hide himself, listening for anything that might help him understand what was happening.

The bog would prove to be the most challenging of terrains he had exercised in. He had to dodge and leap over large puddles and mud while he jogged, adding a little extra to his routine. Sabre would jog along a trail, making sure to keep a steady pace and feeling his chest begin to ache from how long he had been going. He moves forward, only stopping when he sees a group ahead of him. With the scents of others also came the scent of prey, one that he would follow and move towards. Slowing down to a walk, the colossal observes the many bodies that had gathered, and he could only assume they were here to hunt. Readying himself, the brute crouches lower to the ground, muscles tense and tail tips flicking behind him.

Jiera is out collecting ashanti pepper. She plucks at the unique looking plant gingerly, making sure she doesn't cause for any of the seeds to fall off the stem she had bitten off. Placing it down on a large leave, she was beginning to work on another when scents and paw steps catch her attention. Skull turns in the direction they are coming from, and as she spotted out the scent of prey she was assuming they all were gathering for a hunt. She decides to follow the prey smell, sniffing every now and then to see if she could figure out what it was. She hadn't had a good meal in some days, so it was easy enough for Jiera to decide whether or not to join. She pads towards the group, staying more toward the back; she wasn't the best at hunting but another abled body would be better nonetheless.

He did not like the eerie stillness that he was stuck in. It made him anxious, worried that any small movement would draw attention to him. He could only wait for so long though before his nerves started to fray, soon forcing him out and back onto the path he had followed in. If he was quiet, maybe he could sneak away …

Following the water way, Zephyr noted the thick brush that sprouted along its banks. It was mostly dead now, and he was mindful of where he placed his paws, to avoid stepping on crunchy foliage. But it would provide a good hiding spot if he needed it.

Fortunately, he didn’t. Still a small, easily-overlooked child, Zephyr soon reached the edge of the territory, guided there by the streams that ran out. With a sigh of relief, the boy took off into the Grove, heading for home.

If there is any hint to be made regarding his companions' insidious natures toward the young girl, it is lost on Gauthier as soon as his toes sink into the filthy loam of the bog. His lips curled with distaste at the stagnant scent of the terra, the heady rot and weight of humidity that dragged with every step. It is the only thing that slows him down as he trudges through the murky waters and briny backwash after Ludivine and Leontine, picking his footing so that he doesn't sink into a mouthful of mudwater. Relief comes once he finds them - and a countless others, to his immediate dismay. He frowned, regarding the amount of lions that had chosen to attend. The only chance for anything more savory than a waterlogged twig was for them to find the most monstrous boar that resided in the whole of Amaryllis. An ill-placed, misfortunate mammoth would do quite nicely at this moment, he supposed.
