SPY REPORT
The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon MORDANT, for
I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned! BLACK PANTHEON? Who? FREAK BROTHERS is the top
team these days, buddies! BLACK ARMADA after a sorry 0-3-0 might want to consider
abandoning the sands and taking up singing the 'Can't fight no more' blues! Nothing
works for a team like victory (How's that for a perceptive observation?) as THE QUIET
DOCTRINE can attest... Good things come to those who fight well, as ENTERPRISE can
attest, moving up by 7. Practice pays for MARCUS MARTULUS, who pummelled THE SENTRY,
to pocket 27 points. A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice
more, after losing 24 points to MARCUS MARTULUS. (Discrete enough, THE SENTRY?)
SCALLYWAG found out that MORDANT isn't a democracy. You've gotta be the best to be
Duelmaster here! So who's the team that's been walking into taverns last week and
ordering milk? Sounds like a PR stunt to me.
So much to report, so little time! Perhaps the warriors of FREAK BROTHERS
should take up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided team... The warriors of
FREAK BROTHERS found their efforts at combat frustrated as HOT RODS apparently had
more important things to do than fight. Is it charming personality? Conversational
abilities? Good oral hygiene? Whatever it is, BENO is the most challenged warrior.
Take heed MORDANT, of the unprincipled action of IOSIO. By challenging BENO, 22
points below him, IOSIO besmirches the noble art of dueling. IOSIO bested BENO. The
whole thing leaves a bitter memory. As a confidence booster, ONE-EYED challenged
MORPHINE, down 20 points. Do you also slay vicious rodents in your spare time,
ONE-EYED? ONE-EYED beat MORPHINE with a point difference of 20. So this is what
MORDANT calls a duel. This will make an interesting tale.
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Never one to advocate
diplomacy and restraint, I was pleased to see THE BLACK EXPRESS retaliate against
PHILANTHROPISTS in bloodfeud! Ask not for whom the sword slashes; it slashes for
thee.
All good things must come to an end. More important duties call me. Like a
mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid MORDANT farewell-- Novgorodny Vir
