SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly TRANSEL games. Warriors--remember that glory waits
always around the corner! Witness how this week Z.A.P.P. MASTERS went 0-0-0 to move
up 3 in the rankings. JAKE caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as
it skillfully bested KOKO TAYLOR and was awarded 25 points in recognition. In one of
the week's more notable duels, JAKE put down KOKO TAYLOR, causing her to lose 38
points of recognition in the process. Not for nothing has MCKINLEY in the past laid
claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's proven his combat skill yet
again. No confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has gained their
position using magical aids. Charmed weapons perhaps?
Many and various are the arts of battle. In TRANSEL "art" is a word that has
long since passed from the language! TRANSEL, city of gladiators! Mighty among the
names of thy guilds is BLACK AND BLUES, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the
weekly duels. Apparently the stalwarts of BREWHALLA 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 WILLOW. Watch your back!
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the arena
there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far off
city calling to me. I must away! Till next we meet remember: a fool flies into a
rage quickly and often. The wise are angered by the same thing only once. Zontani
