It was a light turn with a few teams absent, so it will be a brief report. It is a sad day to see our beloved arena so short on activity. We can remedy it with an infusion of new faces over the next few months. I plan to reach out to the other managers of the land, and it would help if each of you did the same. Kye Smallfoot of the Darque Knights strode onto the sands and leveled Swipe Left in a mismatched title fight. Kye challenged Swipe Left, so he must have had something in mind over the past few weeks. I doubt it involved taking over the top seat in Seam, though. Pandemic Boredom's warriors were repeatedly thrust into the spotlight this turn. They faced many foes and came away worn. Duo Lingo lost to Emile, Nuok Tufe beat Animal Crossing, and we have already covered Swipe Left's misfortune with our new Duelmaster. In a twist that surprises no one, Swipe Left is our most challenged warrior since he was the only warrior to receive a challenge. A. Single. Challenge. With the most avoided team, we once again look to Pandemic Boredom. Darque Knights mainly avoided them. Once again, I had to verify that there were so few challenges and avoids this turn. Darque Knights were the only team to issue avoids, according to the golem's report. This turn's slaughter included Gamera gutting Kixa Oakheart. It was a gruesome 3- minute duel that left a fight dead on the sands. Far Travelers enjoyed a lot of upward motion this turn, while Thirsty Thugs and Darque Knights remain central in the headlines. Alas, that is all that I have, my sweets. It was a small turn in too many ways! I'll keep brewing more news, but I crave more action in our arena. Send more teams to SEAM! The arena is getting lonely without fresh challengers. I will see you in a fortnight!

Oh Morrissey will undoubtedly be missed. He was a regular arena fixture who has now left us! -- Sidara Brightbell Pappy -- When I look at the key stats and see all of them are single digits, I usually only decide on one course of action--the Dark Arena. There are not only bigger fish in the sea of replacements, but there are also smarter ones, more willful ones, and certainly more agile ones. It looks like you took that approach. Kudos! -- Master Darque But What Am I -- A jerk! -- Kye Smallfoot Sau Sage -- I want to talk to the guy or lady that arranges these fights, especially in this no tourney arena. My eight arena fights against your twenty-nine feels like a bit of a stretch. -- Toz Fireshield Psyde -- I got nothing to say. I couldn't close the deal! -- Freya Bearmaw Sweet Tariffs -- Okay, that is 2 for me and 1 for you. I feel like we are going to add more to that total as the place continues to get smaller. -- Kixa Oakheart Bug -- Welcome to Seam! -- Syd Frostfire LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS KYE SMALLFOOT devastated SWIPE LEFT in a 4 minute mismatched Challenge Title fight.
