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.

Her gaze was clouded by the insatiable urge to tear and maim, and when she spied Lagertha locking onto Draugr's face it only drove her further into madness. Drena didn't necessarily give a fuck about anyone, but this man was her partner in this duel, and she wouldn't allow him to get ripped to shreds. Lagertha's buck sends another kick against her chest, this time also knocking her nose in the process. But this wasn't going to be enough to get her to let go. The top of her nose stings with the searing pain of deep lacerations across her muzzle and she snarls, finally relinquishing her grip on the woman's tail. She was bigger than this wench, and she planned to try and use her size to Draugr's advantage. Drena would launch herself forwards, attempting to sink her heavy claws into Lagertha's haunches and anchor herself. Then, the war hound would attempt to pull backward, using all of her strength to yank backwards in an attempt to physically drag Lagertha from Draugr's face. Her teeth salivated with anticipation, the blood from Lagertha's tail still lingering on her lips.

Noemi knew the woman couldn’t hold out against two-on-one for long, no matter how much she persisted. The kick landed against her shoulder and she hissed in pain, but held fast against the other as her male counterpart pinned the woman’s shoulders. They remained in their lock until her relentless attacking ceased, the fight over.

She stepped off the woman, snarling, "Get up and get the FUCK out of here, unless you want a true reminder of your loss today!" She stood tall above the would-be captor—her eyes flashing dangerously in anticipation—daring her to make any move other than a retreat from the desert; the queen would not be hers for the taking.

In this theft battle, the odds were stacked against her - two adversaries against one. If only the male had stayed out of it, Miaran could have emerged victorious. A hiss of pain escapes her throat as she rises to her feet, her once sleek grey coat now drenched in crimson, wounds oozing their scarlet essence onto the unforgiving sand below. But despite her injuries, she had left her mark on her enemies, her gaze fierce and unyielding as she bares her bloodied fangs.

You think you've won, but it was only because of him, you lâche, coward she spits out in a venomous tone. Va te faire foutre, connasse Go fuck yourself, bitch. With a defiant glare, Miaran locks eyes with both of her assailants before slowly retreating. Though the rules dictated that they couldn't attack her again in this space, she watches them intently, committing their faces to her memory before leaving the battleground. She would not forget this battle or their faces.

@Arkyn whips around to snap at him and he holds his forepaws up. Listen, I'm not in charge, man. He was a good little soldier and good little soldiers fight dirty when they need to. Honor's nothing if you lose. He might have told Magdalena that winning didn't matter when there wasn't a reason but war? A call to arms by a superior? It was reason enough, he supposes. As @Icefang ♔ departs, he casts a glare over to @Parthena. Presuming she dodges her mother's own grip, as the queen calls a request for him to grab her.

Listen you little shit- he says, lurching forward and attempting to snap his jaws roughly around her, though not enough to truly damage her. You're gonna learn not to be a problem, or I'm gonna start beating your ass every day. It's spoken around a mouthful of her skin, if he's managed to get a grip, and the promise is laid out evenly.

She might be a spitfire, and he likes chaos in his own way, but kids need a modicum of respect and awareness to know when and how to cause problems.

Maybe it was time to teach Icefang's kid the finer arts of being a problem.

the fur along her spine is rigid as she is commanded to come, the man's casual laughter and tone enough to kindle her upset even further. her gaze sits heavily on harou, on her children as they press into the own battles. arduinna still is being defended, but brighid is confident that her safety will be secured. she hates this, this feeling of uselessness, and bares her teeth at haakon again as she tears her eyes away from her king. she says nothing to the maneless caladan man who has announced her as nothing but a pawn and she scoffs. pain begins to settle into her wounds, her muscles aching from the strain of battle and its with self loathing and a looming sense of failure that brighid is ushered away from the flurry within the oasis.

Finally the two managed to hold down the squirming hurricane, and she surrendered soon after. George kept his ears back and his eyes narrowed, unshaken, knowing that a cool and collected front was necessary to present. Inwardly he yearned to lecture the young lady @Noemi about picking fights properly. And about not being reckless in victory. His breathing stirred in his chest, rousing pain along his neck and mane with each crest of filled lungs. Once she retreated, he watched her go and then nodded curtly at his pridemate. Professional, nothing of cruelty or disdain. He didn't know who their enemies were but he knew enemies were always watching. "Let's retreat and rest. She got you worse than me." Despite his efforts to distract the raging usurper, true, but he wasn't going to complain about ending up relatively unscathed. Picking fights for easy victories was kinda an assassin thing.

I will strip away all that you know, all that you love
until you have no shelter but me -

@Haakon's words would fall upon deaf ears, because arawn is too filled with fury to focus on anything around him but the blood humming in his veins. he has failed here, today, and he will not forgive himself for it. he's still young and inexperienced and it would cost him his mother. snarling savagely, arawn flashes the viking a murderous and blood-thirsty look. i will come for you.

it is a silent threat laced in absolute fury, but he has to stand down here, in light of his failure. it took every once of his strength to not come charging at the viking once more, to try and rip him apart with his bare hands. but arawn needed more practice, needed more fights, needed to hone his skills more. with a fleeting glance floated towards his beloved mother @Brighid, arawn would share with her an intense and furious look. he will not show weakness, despite everything. he will remain cold and in control of his tempestuous emotions. leaving the battlefield bloodied and weakened, arawn would depart with a savage rumble. he will be more prepared the next time they meet. may the whole of caladan be cursed.

i'm sorry i failed you, mother.

i can't stop this one, we are meant to change in the wind and rain, make me new again
Andraesa kicks the white lion away from her with a vicious snarl, and she is elated to see blood oozing down his putrid face. She can feel her own wounds seeping, trickling down to stain the paler parts of her coat, but she can't bring herself to care in the moment. They are surface wounds, scrapes and bruises that would heal in a day's time or less. He would have something to remember her by.

Pathetic, spoiled prince, Andraesa seethes at @Rhesk, spitting a mouthful of his own blood towards him with disdain. Do not forget that soon enough.

And with that, she kicked out towards the dunes, almost wholly satisfied with her handiwork for the day.
