SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly NIANIA games. Former top team METAL CHURCH was
unseated this week as RESURRECTION moved up from 4th ranking to take the top spot
with a 4-1-1 record for the round. Warriors--remember that glory waits always around
the corner! Witness how this week RESURRECTION went 4-1-1 to move up 3 in the
rankings. CUT caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully
bested MELODY and was awarded 32 points in recognition. In one of the week's more
notable duels, RESTINPIECES put down JAR, causing him to lose 11 points of
recognition in the process. Not for nothing has RAM SHAM in the past laid claim to
the Duelmaster's throne, and this week she's proven hers combat skill yet again.
Would you believe that over half of the old women in NIANIA seem to feel that they
could fight better than you gladiators?
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. My inside sources tell me that the
team to beat in NIANIA these days is THE GOLDEN FISH. At least, most blades in town
are looking to avoid them. Apparently the stalwarts of DEEP ELVES are catching the
bulk of jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids.
Loose talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that
many fighters are after RESTINPIECES. Watch your back! I can not but mention with
disdain the name of CHYLEYA who this week posted a challenge to a warrior a full 12
points below in the rankings. I thought CHYLEYA showed great skill and promise when
she beat START THE FIRE. 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. This week marked the last days of
EVENSTAR who at 19-8-0 was dispatched to the Dark Arena by the command of DEEP ELVES'
demanding management. Was I the only one shocked to see the well respected fighter
EVENSTAR (19-8-0) appear on the sands of the Dark Arena? She is now dead. Look no
more for PSYCHO in the arena or on the streets of NIANIA. His fate was sealed in the
Dark Arena. Inevitable for one at 6-7-0. I must report the passing of MELODY,
veteran of many duels. 16-19-0 final record Hers was not illustrious--but death
plays no favorites. This week in mortal passion CUT let the blood of MELODY, sending
one more soul into the void. Retribution by HARLEQUINS seems inevitable! Some say a
warrior is judged by the way he bears arms. One thing is sure, better a dagger in
hand then a sword on the belt!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in NIANIA. 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
