                                      SPY REPORT

     The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon NIANIA, for I, 
Novgorodny Vir, have returned!  Practice pays for *TOSHA, who pummelled PETER NETLEY, 
to pocket 17 points.  PETER NETLEY certainly had a baffled expression on his face, 
after losing to *TOSHA and losing 3 points in the process!  In NIANIA, nothing is 
permanent (except Death), and we find ourselves a new Duelmaster, POLISH CAVALRY.  So 
who was the warrior seen charging into immovable walls and challenging dead trees?  
Someone's got a basic problem...   
     So much to report, so little time!   
     Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors.  
Ask not a spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen 
into an unconscious stupor.   
     Leave me now, you base fools!  As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond my 
control, I must take my leave of this place.  Like a mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed 
simile, I now bid NIANIA farewell-- Novgorodny Vir

Pikestave -- I was told there were golden fish in this arena.  You weren't exactly
what I had in mind. -- Cutpurse

     He wouldn't fit in a purse, either.

Well, HECK.  Talk about unfair!  *I* have to do all the work: duelmaster, chartered
recognition leader, popularity leader, and favorite, and do *I* get the prize?  No!
Kestraline is the one who graduates.  It's probably some kind of discrimination. --
Elinterri

And we go four-one today, which isn't bad.  I pass over Elin's remarks, she's just
annoyed.  It happens.  After all, SHE had to deal with the @#$R%# Insurance Salesman.
