Well, I knocked that one out of the park, and here I sit atop the standings. I'm hoping for a nice long stay, at least until I hear from Lady Greywand. We'll see if I can last that long. I am not relishing the prospect of facing Prima Giedi. If he's not fighting in the arena, it's probably because he was tourney dueling. And that would mean he's pretty good. So, we'll see how things shake out, if he comes back to the arena, or if I am fighting an NPC next turn. Until then, may the gods guide your blows straight and true! -- Bambino, your Duelmaster. SPY REPORT Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the clash and bustle of the weekly KOLACT games. Former top team WAR HAWKS was unseated this week as THE RAZOR'S EDGE moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot with a 3-2-0 record for the round. AJAX caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested THE USEROUS MERCHANT and was awarded 16 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, OIL CAN put down JET NEUTRALITY, causing him to lose 5 points of recognition in the process. Cold and lifeless, former Duelmaster BAMBINO will fight no more! EAT SCHMIDT AND DIE has slain him! Heed this! A seer has warned that if exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish! Just remember...5 or 7! Many and various are the arts of battle. In KOLACT "art" is a word that has long since passed from the language! I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's challenge seeking began. NEON DIAMONDS is feared. This much I can say. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard pressed to find any of PRATFALL last week. Busy avoiding NEON DIAMONDS? Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand ready at your right hand forever! Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this! A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise manager learn the secrets of them all? More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed a stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me! Till next we meet remember: a fool flies into a rage quickly and often. The wise are angered by the same thing only once.
