SPY REPORT
Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day,
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again! TEAN NOTTINGHAM? Who? BLACK AND BLUES is the
top team these days, buddies! Those betting on LANCIARII lost their shirt, as
LANCIARII lost their fighting abilities: 0-3-0. What's a move up by 8 you ask?
(alright, maybe you didn't ask) Cause for celebration, according to BLACK AND BLUES.
Practice pays for THE DUCHESSE, who pummelled DON'T, to pocket 16 points. Win some,
lose some. Speaking of which, THE DUCHESSE was winsome, after beating DON'T and
seeing it lose 10 points. HEMLOCK found out being TRANSEL's Duelmaster isn't all
nuts and berries, receiving 2 challenges! You could cut the tension with a scimitar
as OVERKILL of BREWHALLA met the Duelmaster. In TRANSEL, nothing is permanent
(except Death), and we find ourselves a new Duelmaster, OVERKILL. Word has it one
team in TRANSEL is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the lion, so
did the "warriors" in TRANSEL avoid TOP HITS. Like a pup with its tail between its
legs, BREWHALLA scurried away from TOP HITS. Oh, the shame!
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! BLACK BETTY of
TOP HITS, possessing a sorry record of 10-12-1, lost hers last battle to SLANG DU
JOUR of BREWHALLA. Young warriors, take note! Such is a failure's lot! Ask not a
spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen into an
unconscious stupor.
All good things must come to an end. As the seasons change, and the creatures
of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave this place. Like a mixed
metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid TRANSEL farewell-- Novgorodny Vir
