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.

she'd been out practicing her endurance, building her ability to run on the thick sands. it sucks at her feet, slowing her steps and making her muscles burn but in a way that satiates her. she'd been high-stepping one way and back, up and down the shoreline for ten minutes, despite her injuries. so when the hunt gathers, léontine decides to take a break. she wants to feed. and with no easy targets, she supposes a prey animal is her only real choice today. the shore is long and empty and her eyes trail along the assembled, narrowing on krait who seems to be leading this group.

With snap of bone, tearing of flesh, and rending of blood, a beast is fallen. Thisbe licks her lips to clear away the blood and help soothe her racing heart. Like a drum beat in the distance it begins to fade from her ears and she is able then to take a piece of food for herself to enjoy. It's a bit more than a mouthful, but she does not take more. She does not wish to carry it.

Instead she gathered up some more herbs and began to back track, testing herself and tracing her foot steps back to where she had seen herbs before. In an effort to study their location, commit it to memory for later.

IANTHE
Like the pelican, her hunt was successful. It had been kind of odd, running on sand, her short legs had to.work twice as hard to push herself through the shifting ground.
More out of breath than she probably should be, Ianthe took a moment to compose herself. Maybe she's learned a lesson here, and will never try running on the beach again.
Once her breath has been caught, Ianthe takes a strip of the prey, not really all that hungry but not wanting all that work to have gone to waste.
The princess leaves the rest of it to her fellow hunters, and goes back to gathering herbs. A much safer and far less straining hobby.

“Hopefully,” Krait echoed the brown lioness to arrive first with an answering smile, encouraged by how quickly the hunting party formed around him. He couldn’t help seeking out some familiar faces—they were on the shore, after all; Esca or Ursula might have been able to hear—but none from his little seaside clan showed. That was okay. Hunting was his job anyway.

The group helped make his job easy as they combined their efforts to fell the donkey who had poorly chosen to wander the beach, and he hardly felt like he’d broken a sweat by the time they had it down. “Easy enough,” Krait remarked proudly, thankful for the assistance of those who’d participated. He waited until they had taken what they wished to and then picked over the remains, intent upon adding it to the small cache he’d started for his adopted family.

Her gaze was torn between analyzing the shoreline for any useful herbs and scanning the terrain for a prey to chase down. Eventually her hunger got the better of her and the colossal woman would fall into line behind the others. Reine planned to use her bulk to her advantage, and when their target came to be a lone african donkey it was evident that the creature didn't stand a chance against the magnitude of the group. Reine would grab a small portion of meat for herself before she'd return to a shallow area of water on the beach. Carefully the woman would pick some clumps of seaweed to take back with her to add to her stache, surely it would be useful for some sort of healing properties down the line. Gathering up her meat and herbs she would head back to her den for the evening, satisfied with the outcome.

She is glad that not many joined the hunting party. When there were many mouths to feed it meant that there was less of a reward, unless she wanted to fight for a bigger piece (which she was not totally against but didn't really feel like it). Crimson eyes continue to scan her surroundings, soon spotting the donkey that comes into view. With a quick lick of her lips she springs forward, engaging the hunt and lunging herself at the equine. She lands on its back, claws and teeth sinking into its hot flesh. She doesn't let go until its brought to the ground and no longer breathing, and with swift movement she takes a big chunk as her reward. Then she would take off, wanting to find a spot a little ways from the shore to enjoy her meal.

Jiera creeps forward slowly, continuing to follow the scent of their prey. The braying of a donkey catches her off-guard, causing for her ears to twist backward at the shrill sound. Her eyes glance around, finally finding the source of the noise, and as the others moved into action she would, as well. The healer would keep on the outskirts, ensuring that the donkey didn't try to escape. She would snap and swipe at it, and once it was brought down she would slow herself to a stop. Tail flicks behind her as she makes her way toward the donkey, grabbing her share. She makes a swift exit, wanting to find a place a little ways away from the shore to enjoy her meal.

exit Jiera.

As @Karsa strode into the water, Aphid set about meticulously removing the granules of sand from his foreleg, and soon made sure to wash it thoroughly in salty water. "Keep it clean," she says, but the boy's mind is elsewhere, and she follows his gaze to the distant flocks of birds and rocky towers. "Not me, but I'll be here to patch you up if you want to give a try," she laughed musedly at his thought.

"Ay," and she sought to bop him on the snout with a wet paw, "Keep it clean. I mean it." Like a mother reprimanding her distracted teenager, she would sooner cast the kid a mischevious smirk before moving on into the hunt. They fell a lone African Donkey, and though she would take a small portion, the girl would leave most of it the others who had gathered.

he knows that the time was rapidly approaching where karsa would have to pitch in to help replenish the pride's caches so as aphid works on patching him up, the boy makes sure to keep a close eye on the lions as they stalk their prey, a strong looking donkey up the shoreline. "okay, i will." he says absently, trying his best not to pull away from aphid as the girl gets to work cleaning the wound. "i don't think i do..." he murmurs, glancing from the cliffs and towers and back to aphid. "though being up that high looks like an awesome scouting perch, i think one injury is enough for today. all those birds making their nests up there are kinda vicious..." as karsa had very quickly found out when he had come to observe the hunt going on. within minutes it seems the animal is falling with a last bray of protest, and then it lies completely still - a testament to the lions' skill. aphid wanders off not long after the hunt completes and with his foreleg healed as much as it could be in the moment, karsa too begins the trek back to obsidian.
