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!

September 26th, 2023 A series of pride challenges spark up across the peninsula, while warring families face-off as tensions reach their boiling points. Anthonius Savante barely manages to escape the clutches of Apollinaire Dieudonne with his life, while death looms over the broken truce between the Valour-Greyflood and Saxe families.

September 4th, 2023 After Tinúviel collapsed at the Wolfbron Bluff's challenge, she was unable to make it back to the Lagoon to take up her leadership position again and the pride disbands. Diomedeidae & Cirilla fight for the pride.

August 28th, 2023 Both Amara and Morrigan keep their prides. Lachesis doesn't show to defend the Brook and Renfri takes over. The Wolfbron Bluffs challenge seems to be setting off fireworks already.

August 15th, 2023 The two longest standing female leaders are both fighting for their prides once again. Anthonius challenges Amara for the Bluffs. Amaroq challenges Morrigan for the Summit. A new leader faces his first challenge as Renfri challenges Lachesis for the Brook. Did anyone think that peace was something the island was able to have?

August 1st, 2023 Conflict, drama, love, and loss - the lands are never free from any of it for more than a fleeting moment. As the summer months wane on and the season nears its end, there is no telling what is coming next upon the horizon.

June 19th, 2023 With the rains leaving and spring upon the island, things are heating up among the lions. Bruno seeks to unseat his father in the Mire. Helah looks to dethrone Scorpius in the Oasis and keep the fire between the Bluffs and the Oasis alive. The Plains have raided the Brook and allies on both sides showed up to help.

May 23rd, 2023 All is fair in love and war - moments of chaos and peace lull in a cyclical nature across the lands of Amaryllis, though most are wise enough to know that the quiet never lasts quite long enough.

April 20th, 2023 Alexander manages to win the Hollows and Tiamat keeps the Lagoon. Vághan challenges Amara for the Bluffs but Amara is able to hold off another challenger and keeps the Bluffs. The Cove was hit by a storm that washed away it's leader leaving the lands open to be claimed by Nephthys and Keligan who both are attached to the land. Cirilla attempts to take the Oasis from Scorpius who seems driven to keep the land.

April 5th, 2023 It doesn't take long for the dust to kick up as the Hollows is challenged for by Alexander once again and the Lagoon is challenged for by Fernweh.

March 31st, 2023 As wars and challenges continue to break out across the lands, Amaryllis is certainly keeping up with its turbulent reputation. One can only hope that the dust will settle soon enough - for everyone's sake.

March 10th, 2023 The turbulance of the prides never ceases for very long, as a violent landslide forces the members of Firnen Rainforest to evacuate and disband. Who will step up for the throne this time around?

March 1st, 2023 While Gauthier manages to retain control of Caladan Cove, Lorien Plains' fate is not so simple. With Aeistrios overthrowing Violarum and taking the pride's throne, how will things unravel from here?

Summer
The summer season has finally reached its peak. The sunshine is plentiful, the days are long and the air is hot and humid - but the evenings do not seem to provide the same relief that they once had, and remain somewhat stuffy. Thunderstorms have also began appearing more frequently, particularly in the rainforest and eastern region, though the rain is welcomed after a relatively dry season thus far.

Now stronger and better than ever, Zabrina felt it was time for her to start pulling her weight as a Gentry of the Lagoon rather than simply expecting others to do the work for her. It wasn't her thing, and she didn't enjoy sitting back and letting everyone else handle things for her. Even back home she'd not been content to sit back and let everything be done for her. She'd snuck out at night to do some things a lioness of her status should not have been doing - and she missed doing those things. So what better to do than to take initiative and lead a hunt herself for the pride?

As she worked to try to track down a target, Zabrina would let out some summoning calls to those around her. She was calling the pride together for a hunt, and hopefully as many would show up to her hunt as they had shown up to the other one she had joined recently. She wanted to her her king and her wife proud within the land.

No rest for the wicked. Was there ever? Well, not that she was complaining. But she did wonder how the timing always seemed to be so perfect that she just happened to be unoccupied. Not that she minded, but she'd just been about to slip over the borders to do something. Well, that matter could wait, couldn't it? And so, without much of a fuss, she turned and trotted towards the call.

It did seem like no one else had arrived yet, from what she could see at a distance while closing in. But that suited her just fine. Her gait shifted ever so slightly, from a relaxed lope to slow and precise, but still elegant movements. A confident stride with her head held high. Emerald gaze lingered on @Zabrina as the pale furred warrior queen approached, giving a chuff in greeting before settling and curling her tail around her side, draping it over her paws.

It felt good to have some sort of purpose, to spend time helping others. So when she heard a call for pride members to gather for a hunt, Oriana is more than happy to oblige. She stand up from sitting next to her den, watching the ocean that wasn't too far away from her. She enjoyed the soothing sounds the waves brought with it, a sound that helped lull her to sleep. Giving herself a quick shake, the Miroslav begins her way to where the sound had come from, soon coming across two other Cove members. She gives them both a soft nod and a smile in greeting before she turns her attention to sniffing the air and beginning to trail it, trying to decipher what sort of prey they would be catching today.

Sunder was becoming quite proud of the Cove as time wore on. The pride was growing and thriving, and everyone was doing their best to pull their own weight and help out when needed. She couldn't ask for much more than that, it was all that she wanted. The voice that summoned them on this day was @Zabrina and Sunder sauntered across the beach, her flopped ears preening forward delicately as she took in the sight of both @Lagertha and @Oriana present. "Beautiful day for a hunt, ladies." Sunder would croon softly before halting towards the center of the others gathered but her attention would subtly shift to land on Zabrina, eager for her to lead them forward.

It were not Yuna who called them this time, but rather just as pleasant a surprise. Kvare had been patrolling the borders when he first heard Zabrina's beckoning, and at first he had been worried it were one of alarm. Quickly tensions eased, however, and the King found himself gravitating toward the call. His pace turns relaxed, eager to burn off the energy from the mindless drawl of early morning patrols. His lips parted in a yawn; but every other part of him were eager, whiskers twitching with almost instinctual delight at the hunt yet to begin.

By the time he emerged from the underbrush, a group had already begun to gather. Eyes flit between the familiar faces of all the lionesses gathered, and suddenly, Kvare can't help but feel he is astronomically outnumbered. His brow crinkles, wading his way forward until he comes to settle near @Sunder's side. He is silent, more gargoyle than man, content to linger in his own thoughts while he waited for the call to start. Something appeared to be distracting the King.

Moradin was in the midst of a patrol along the pride's nearby borders. He was warmed up from the walk and mentally ready to track, to react. He fortunately had not found anything concerning along the edges of Caladan and so as the call for a hunt went up he was eager to respond. Eager for something to do to help release some of the energy he was building up, holding onto in case something came up. He could go for a small snack too, something to tide over the grinding and grumbling of his belly until the job of patrolling all borders was complete.

Casually strolling into the gathered lions, it was so much easier to position herself beside @Moradin. When @Eisa wasn't present to gravitate to, it was nice to have a "comfort blanket" of sorts. An individual that made you feel stronger than you did by yourself. A part of her knew that as long as he was around she was safe-er. Not entirely safe but at least there was a small chance that if something did happen, she'd be less alone than she would be otherwise and that was the case today as she knelt beside her friend. Giving him a tentative smile before moving her gaze to focus on their hunt.

Khadija was ready for yet another pride hunt, with so many mouths to feed it was important that everyone helped with that, even if her own skills didn't align with hunting, or at least not in an expert level. But enough to not be useless. Quietly her eyes traveled over those around, nodding at them in silence. She didn't want to spook any potential prey, that would be embarrassing and she wasn't having it.

She took an spot to hide, and wait for the hunt leader to start. She wanted to get over with this so she could go back to her own activities. One that didn't require tooth and claw.

Pyrrha approaches the gathering of lions set up to hunt with a calm crown upon her head, a look of dedicated focus within her pale blue eyes. It was time to build back up the caches after that strange bout of weather that had driven herds away and made food more difficult to come by. In a time of boon it was time to gourge and give way to gluttony. She comes within close proximity of the ground and waits for further instruction and a signal to begin. Her eyes primed to watch the other hunters and hopefully pick up a few tricks along the way from them. Tail lashed with growing anticipation and building tension within. She wanted to run.

The summons for a hunt rang across the pride-lands, and as Eisa turned towards it she groaned softly at the distance between her and the direction of the sound. Of course, she thought it has to be on the other side of the territory. She picked her pace up into a fast trot- cutting across the sandy and rocky area's of the territory with ease and determination. When she arrived at the hunt, she noted that Ana was there along with her friend Moradin, and she would nod to her sister, but give her some space with a smile. She of course felt the pull to stand with her, but she wouldn't take that from her friend either. Eisa could share, that was easy, right?
