                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings, Warriors of KALTOS.  Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir to give 
you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport.  ATTACKERS?  Who?  JAMES 
BONDAGE is the top team these days, buddies!  JAMES BONDAGE posted a nice gain, to 
come in 1st.  Everybody loves a winner...  Practice pays for SILVER SOMETHING, who 
pummelled BLACK RAPTOR, to pocket 21 points.  BLACK RAPTOR certainly had a baffled 
expression on his face, after losing to SILVER SOMETHING and losing 16 points in the 
process!  BOOTHE found out being KALTOS' Duelmaster isn't all nuts and berries, 
receiving 2 challenges!  You could cut the tension with a scimitar as SCARAMANGA of 
JAMES BONDAGE met the Duelmaster.  What can be a greater victory?  SCARAMANGA has 
taken his place as the top, as KALTOS' new Duelmaster.  So who was the warrior seen 
charging into immovable walls and challenging dead trees?  Someone's got a basic 
problem...   
     And how sociable are KALTOS' warriors?  Come, let us see.  Like the noble eagle 
soaring amongst the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of BLACK BULLDOGS, alone and 
unchallenged.  As a woman of good breeding scorns the "warriors" of JAMES BONDAGE, so 
did that sorry team shy from BLACK BULLDOGS  
     Ah, the duel!  The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd!  Ask not for 
whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee.   
     Leave me now, you base fools!  My fingers tire and I fear my incessant prattling 
may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable character.  KALTOS, I leave you now.  
The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Victory Tavern.  'Til next time-- 
Novgorodny Vir
