December 13, 2024 After winning the challenge for Wolfbron Bluffs and becoming the fourth Dieudonné to hold the crown, Lazare releases all the members and ends the longest standing pride's reign over the island. After seven years of the Bluffs being held by the same family, it now sits empty, waiting for the next chapter of it's leadership.

December 6, 2024 Death came to a witch hunter after she called for the death of Karsa, with Kvare answering it causing Miaran to fall. Lazare Dieudonné challenges Louve Dieudonné for Wolfbron Bluffs. Snow seems to be falling in the middle of the summer as strange animals show up and offer a tempting meal for those brave enough to jump in.

November 8, 2024 Scorpius has gone missing and in his place Zaahir steps up to take the throne of Andal Oasis. How this change of leadership will shake things up in the lands, only time will tell.

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!

Fall
Though the air is still warm and the sun is bright, the summer is beginning to wane and, with it, the humidity has started to die down. It is a welcomed relief for the inhabitants of the jungle, as more moderate weather will mean that the rainforest will not feel quite as stifling, as well as those from the desert, who's early autumn will see calm winds and mild nights. For the rest of the peninsula, the change in seasons will be gradual, hinting towards the colder months that are soon to come.

His vision was failing him much faster than he'd anticipated. Nero wasn't entirely sure how much time he actually had left, but he was still determined to enjoy whatever he could. There was far too much going on in his life for him to ever take his blindness without seeing all there was to see. More than anything, he wanted solid answers about a handful of things.. but Nero had a feeling there would be none coming. It was best to simply focus on what he knew he had, wasn't it?

The pale lion walked slowly, his paws hesitating each step as he reached out to feel for anything in his way. Nighttime was the worst.

Nazonal is home. Even as long as she's been away she takes to the jungle again quickly. They know the roots, the trees, and the vines by heart. They hadn't realized just how much it stung to be away from Aniadar. She has wasted no time since following Nero home, she is determined to keep track of him while he goes about finding and checking in on his daughters but she's stolen a few days for herself to reacquaint with the Jungle. Tonight as she walked however there is something out there, familiar and beloved. His scent wandered to Naz and they follow it, quick and not at all quiet.

Nero. She says when they pop through foliage and noticed his pale form moving along. Struggling. She recognizes it right away, that part of her brain that comes with hunting triggers and sees weakness. Nero... She says aloud again, sadly and more quietly finishing up closing the distance to him. What was wrong? His eye sight had never been the best but she's never seen him like this.

He had done his best to keep away during the night. Nero knew his vision was deteriorating quickly, yes, but during the day he often had no problems save for the occasional bout of blurriness. It was nothing unmanageable; he had been through life without an eye for.. well, a little bit. The man knew he would adapt and overcome the same as he always did, he just needed to keep to himself during the darker hours – or better yet, curl up against Nazonal and sleep. Can't be pathetically pawing at the ground if you're asleep, that's what his ma always said. Probably Saga. She always gave words of wisdom like that, with a southern twang and her hand on her hip.

He almost snorted at the thought.

His paw brushed against a stone and he tapped around to feel its width. Mhm, yes. Very stone like. Nero sidestepped it with ease and continued on, hoping there was no one around to gawk at his lameness. Ugh.

So, naturally, Nazonal was there.

He froze and swung his head towards her voice, squinting a bit to see her dark form against the darkness. “You look beautiful tonight. Well, you always do, but tonight? I can see you're extra beautiful.” Please, on whatever god existed, don't let him actually be looking at a fallen log or something instead.

He's tapping around strangely. It's an unfamiliar sight for Naz who knows this jungle so well to see anyone struggling. But even the most lost of lions they'd run across did not act like this. She steps in closer, he's squinting her way and trying to be sweet. He is sweet, the compliment makes Naz widely grin but cannot completely smother the confusion leading into worry that they're experiencing.

Nero, my children looked more confident in the jungle right after they were born than you do right now love... What's wrong. She leans in and aims to press her forehead upon his.

“Hey, hey! Could someone uncomfortable in the jungle do this?” he says confidently, maneuvering around the boulder he has no idea Nazonal watched him prod at moments earlier. He's pleased with himself and how he's managed to pull it off.. and if that isn't enough of a giveaway, it's the way he flinches ever so slightly when @Nazonal places her forehead against his. In the shadows, in the dark, he had not seen them approach as anything more than a blur. His heart hammers against his chest as he calms himself, wondering if maybe Naz.. just, you know, hadn't noticed him jumping out of his skin.

He clears his throat.

“It's just hard to see right now. That's all. Like, I don't know, it's just.. it'll pass.” It won't pass. He knows it won't pass. But for some reason, he can't bring himself to tell them the honest truth that there will come a day when he will never see their face again. As the thought settles he presses in closer, lifting a paw to try and bring their head closer against his.

If she had palms to clap she would have. He made it around the boulder. But it's the simplicity of the task that worried Naz. Walking around a boulder shouldn't be an accomplishment. And definitely not one she clocked him struggling with. But he's done it and looks better then a few moments ago. At least there is that win she will take to heart.

She flinched just a bit in response to his body's reactionary twinge. A thousand thoughts race through her head in the few seconds it takes for him to begin speaking and explain. I'm sure it will. She tried to sound reassuring and to believe it herself. But Naz couldn't hold back the doubt. Maybe whatever extra time he'd been given with that new eye was at an end. And as payment it was taking the other with it? His voice, the quiver of hope that seems just as forced as hers, was painful. It's just a bad night. They happen right? Can't all be good ones. Just means an excuse for us to snuggle up and not go anywhere tonight right? They let their head be guided in by the touch of his paw. Her eyes shutting while she presses herself to him and inhales deeply Nero's familiar scent. Taking the few moments with him to deny the reality creeping up on him.

If there was one thing he could always rely on with Nazonal, it was their unfailing commitment to playing along. Regardless of how trivial or dangerous or lame the things he did were, Nazonal was always there beside him. It made him look back on the months they'd spent torn apart with the heaviest of hearts and deeply embedded regret, but there was nothing he could do now except move forward. With her by his side.

“Exactly!” he chirped in an excited reply. “It's just because the planets aren't aligned. Or.. they are. They're just messing everything up, regardless of what they're doing.” He was spouting nonsense and they both knew it. It was fine, though, because there was no one he would rather spout nonsense with than Nazonal.

The albino shifted his weight forward in a gentle attempt to send them both to the ground, eager to wrap himself around her and try to grab one of their ears between his teeth. “Nothin’ we can't handle together. Just gotta fight some planets, no biggie.” And here he paused for a minute, considering, before blurting out: “weeeeee.. should have cubs?”

Because he wanted to see them, learn them, before his vision failed entirely.

No biggie, we've taken on worse. Including what felt like a cosmic force hellbent on pushing them apart from each other. She lets him take her down to the ground and settles into his embrace on the floor of the jungle. She can look up and see the night sky beyond, crossed by shadowy branches like some bizarre web. She's never really noticed and appreciated things like this. Being able to see.

She might have saddened herself with such thoughts but they were rather abruptly and happily pulled out of it by an unexpected suggestion. She smiles against him and happily her tail began to lash about. Ok. Let's do it. She places a kiss on his cheek, feverish and with girlish eagerness. Naz moves to place another on his neck, lingering there for a second and then tracing their lips a bit further down toward his chest.

Among the list of things Nero considered himself to be, smooth was not one of them. He'd grown up with some of the strangest role models for love and to that day, he didn't know how to make them coincide with one another. Between Alizabeth’s no-nonsense, go-get-’em, free loving approach to Saga's absolutely-fucking-not monogamy, he wasn't entirely sure where he settled. He only knew he loved Nazonal and she was in his arms, purring, hitting all the right buttons. Fortunately, Nazonal had never seemed terribly bothered by his inability to woo. Maybe because they'd grown up with each other and she was just accustomed to his dumbassery. Regardless, he counted his lucky stars.

Naz accepted his proposal without hesitation, leaving him reeling with a mixture of excitement and anxiety. He hadn't anticipated getting that far and now he was at a loss with what to do. Nero fidgeted a bit as they drew their lips down his throat and chest, because shit, what else was he supposed to do? Naz knew what they were doing. They always did. Nero hadn't meant they needed to have cubs right then and there, but he wasn't opposed to.. uh, practicing? Practicing. The lion rumbled affectionately and rasped his tongue against their forehead, more than happy to just stay in their embrace for the rest of the night.

“We’ll name the first one Sparkles.”

Because he couldn't leave well enough alone.

Naz felt, and readily gave in to, the pulls of affection and attraction. On the floor of the jungle she curled into the embrace of her mate and lay herself against him comfortably. Fortunately some things you really didn't need to see well to do. They continue to place warm kisses across his chin and neck- peppering in playful bites occasionally. "Sparkles? Yeah ok." She said in a tone that was actually very assuredly no. They did not want a kid to have to suffer a life of that name. Especially when they'd already have to put up with the two dorkiest parents in the Savannah.
