SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly SNOWBOUND games. Former top team THE BLUES 50 was
unseated this week as OPEN SESAME moved up from 3rd ranking to take the top spot with
a 5-0-0 record for the round. Did only my eyes note the 3-0-0 record which DARQUE
THEORY managed to post this round? I don't doubt that such a record will draw
challengers! SNOW PLOW caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he
skillfully bested BLACK ACE and was awarded 30 points in recognition. In one of the
week's more notable duels, SNOW PLOW put down BLACK ACE, causing him to lose 19
points of recognition in the process. The city has turned out in honor of OSTINATO,
for with his arena victory he may now lay claim to the highest position in the city!
Heed this! A seer has warned that if exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole
city shall perish! Just remember...5 or 7!
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. SNOWBOUND, city of gladiators!
Mighty among the names of thy guilds is DARQUE THEORY, a guild shunned and avoided by
many in the weekly duels. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard
pressed to find any of OPEN SESAME last week. Busy avoiding DARQUE THEORY? Loose
talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many
fighters are after BIG JIM. Watch your back! I can not but mention with disdain the
name of FLOYD COUNCIL who this week posted a challenge to a warrior a full 10 points
below in the rankings. I thought FLOYD COUNCIL showed great skill and promise when
he overcame PERRY REESE. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers
the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in SNOWBOUND. Nice atmosphere you have here! Sadly warriors, now longer can
I keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till
next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different
story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
