SPY REPORT
Hail KYR'TERR! Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for your
deeds. It seems the training can make the difference, as BLUE-EYED SOUL is pushed
out of top team by DARQUE FORCES, who came from 2nd with a 3-1-0 this turn. Now keep
the taverns open late tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for TEA TIME, whose
0-1-0 this turn dropped them by 5 into 15th. OLD SCHOOL 49ERS stable has parlayed
this turn's 1-0-0 into a 5 space move up the rankings. This brings them up to 3rd
place. Good work, guys! The DARQUE FORCES guild has had a 3-1-0 turn and deserves
to be watched in the future. You never know where this kind of thing can lead. And
let's see, TIMELESS fought ODALISQ and gained 22 points and contributed to GR8 PL8TS
4's 1-1-0. ODALISQ has lost to TIMELESS, falling 11 points, while helping make THE
GARRISON a 0-3-0 turn. The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and RICH
GIRL remains KYR'TERR's top warrior for another turn. Can someone confirm a rumor
for me? I hear the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at The Dripping
Blade until they win. Maybe?
The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more
could a warrior ask of life? Well, besides that. I also notice that the GR8 PL8TS 4
stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on KYR'TERR, what are you afraid
of? And guess who avoided GR8 PL8TS 4 stable the most? Believe it or not, it was
DARQUE FORCES. Anyone surprised? Well, sports fans, take notice that THORN from TEA
TIME was KYR'TERR's most challenged warrior this turn.
A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to
be true. A brave warrior does not carry a red shield, he has nothing to cover or
hide when the fight is over. Consider well.
I like this place, KYR'TERR, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.
Who could ask for more? It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep
your swords sharp and your hammers heavy. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets
to paper-- Alarond the Scribe
