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.

and i'm just a problem

the reigning quiet of their peninsula had riddled vacancies throughout her schedule, and prone though she were to filling lulls with nap, this eve finds olive restless. a mixture of boredom and curiosity, instead, lures her from the recesses of lorien and into northern territories with an ambling gait; but, still, she lacks a clear objective in her travels. the haphazard manner in which she weaves through a labyrinth of felled trees only highlights her aimlessness, and the blithe tune she hums certainly does her no favors with perception in the scope of unfamiliar surroundings. and as the dim glow of twilight gives way to shadowed night – muddying the silhouettes of landmarks she’d swear she’d passed thrice, now – olive comes to terms with an unfortunate truth.

she were lost.

— well, that were surely something to occupy the time, now, weren’t it?

a troubled frown encases her features as she draws to a standstill amidst a crowd of underbrush. crickets chirp and evening birds chatter overhead, but through their cacophony, does the pixie pinpoint the snap! of scattered twig. be it a trick of the paranoid mind or the presence of a could-be savior, olive latches upon the sound while her eyes drift in pursuit of its source. “marco?” she barks out to the darkness, but the darkness only seems to stare back in response.


tag! @Nero

Nero can no longer decipher between the stages of night. Dusk, midnight, early dawn; each of them now blur together in an amorphous cloak of shadows. He has taken to remaining quite stagnant as the sun sets, often finding himself a safe place to bed and not dating to budge an inch until the sun begins to rise. It is much less stressful when Nazonal is around to act as his eyes, guiding him effortlessly through the forest he does not trust himself to navigate alone. During the day? Not a problem. At night? He may as well be stepping into a depthless abyss of ink. Darkness swallows him whole, leaving only the tiniest pinpricks of light to guide him.

It is much easier to simply lay and rot until dawn.

Naturally, he does no such thing.

Nero is determined to familiarize himself with as many different landscapes as possible. He traces the same lines again and again, committing each trail to memory with embarrassing difficulty. It's odd how difficult walking is when he can't fucking see. Wild. Who would've thunk it?

The twig snapping beneath his weight causes him to startle. For fucks sake. His brow flattens into an annoyed line at the childish reaction; he's acting like a newborn cub, not a grown-ass man. Pathetic.

The voice that abruptly slices through the night is granted the same result: he nearly jumps out of his skin. Flustered, Nero bites his bottom lip and hesitantly begins tapping around the ground in front of him as he advances towards the voice. It's familiar. Too familiar. Familiar enough that when he finally picks up her scent and realizes who it is, the lion is so caught off guard that he takes a misstep and faceplants only a few yards away from her.

“Polo,” he grunts into the dirt.

and i'm just a problem

fear were not an emotion olive were well-acquainted with, but as she gapes into the spindly shadows of night, she teeters precariously on its ledges. still, little indication of surmounting dread were evidenced through her slackened poise; however, the frantic manner in which her ears careen to the tune of background murmuring speaks volumes as to her underlying tension. but while the sound of approaching footfalls amplifies through a symphony of chirping crickets, so does stillness befall her — apart from the widening of her trained stare as the moonlight’s pallor reflects off of snow-white skin. snow-white skin with rosy undertones, and oh

@Nero.

she releases the breath she’d unconsciously suspended as he weaves through the underbrush to meet her. and were it not for the distracting thrum of her own quickened pulse as apprehension ebbs from her conscience, the sprite may have noted the manner in which he staggers forth. instead, she finds only relief as the albino struggles through the darkness, pocketing whatever past grievances she’d once harbored to greet him with a familiar grin. but it were an expression unreturned, for the man would quickly lose his balance to wipe out at her feet in response.

interesting.

for a moment, she were unmoving in an attempt to register what in the hells had just occurred. but with his pitiful utterance, so does the sprite drift closer — hesitant, as if a lack of coordination were contagious. “i mean, i know i’m a queen now, but you don’t need to bow,” she quips, awkward and flippant. a single forepaw, however, reaches out to help — a tacit notion of water under the bridge for age-old tiffs.

It would have been ideal for him to flee in the other direction, but of course his wayward paws had thrown him at the feet of his arch nemesis. Well, he wasn't sure that title was exactly fitting anymore, but otherwise he didn't know what to call her. Friend? They were certainly more than just acquaintances with the trauma they had gone through together, but friendship seemed to always linger outside of his reach with Olive. Did he even want a friendship with her? Fuck if he knew. More than anything, Nero just wanted to curl up into a ball and die from embarrassment.

His ear twisted in the direction of her paw as it slowly swept towards him and for half a beat, he wondered if she was going to smack him upside the head. When the blow never came, he lifted his face from the dirt and spotted the mitt extended towards him in some sort of.. friendly.. fashion? Nero, bleary eyed, smiled hesitantly up at the lioness and reached for her paw.. only to miss it.

Ah. Shit.

He shook his head and cleared his throat awkwardly, giving it a second try and hitting the mark. “Thanks,” he hummed gratefully, happy to be helped to his feet. Nero shook the debris from his pelt and relaxed back onto his haunches, blinking away the dust from his eyes. “That was my first time playing. How'd I do?”
