                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail KALTOS!  Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for your 
deeds.  VRYDRUIG EIRAGH stable has parlayed this turn's 1-4-0 into a 3 space move up 
the rankings.  This brings them up to 5th place.  Good work, guys!  The NINETY-THREE 
guild has had a 4-1-0 turn and deserves to be watched in the future.  You never know 
where this kind of thing can lead.  And let's see, TELLMARCH fought EMBEZZLING SCRIBE 
and gained 13 points and contributed to NINETY-THREE's 4-1-0.  ELDOG has lost to 
IRONFYRE, falling 3 points, while helping make OF WOLF & GNOLL a 0-1-0 turn.  
Defending his title for another turn, BUCKED OFF kept BLACK BULLDOGS' warrior, BLACK 
RAPTOR, from claiming the throne.  Can someone confirm a rumor for me?  I hear the 
top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at The Victory Tavern until they win.  
Maybe?   
     I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling.  A basher 
friend of mine assures me this is true.  DAPHNE'S LADIES has cause to stand tall, as 
they were KALTOS' most avoided team.  A smart manager knows this is a team to beat.  
And guess who avoided DAPHNE'S LADIES stable the most?  Believe it or not, it was 
NINETY-THREE.  Anyone surprised?   
     The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.  
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed.  We'd like to remind certain teams 
not to rob the graves of their enemies.  You know who you are; and it's considered 
rude.   
     Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the 
sweetest.  It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your swords 
sharp and your hammers heavy.  Until you see my quill in KALTOS again, farewell-- 
Alarond the Scribe
