SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of ARUAK CITY! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Warriors--remember that glory waits
always around the corner! Witness how this week ROHAN went 3-1-0 to move up 3 in the
rankings. My praise to THE MYRMIDONS for their 3-1-0 week this time out. Indeed, it
was a skillfully fought round deserving of notice! EOWYN caught the eye of many in
the gladiatorial commission as she skillfully bested LOSER and was awarded 20 points
in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, EOWYN put down LOSER,
causing it to lose 17 points of recognition in the process. As is fitting, the most
sought after warrior on the challenge boards this week was none other than Duelmaster
THANATOS himself. This time out STEAK-UM made its bid for the throne as it
challenged THANATOS in an all out contest of skill for possession of the title! This
time victory fell to the grasp of the usurper. All hail STEAK-UM, Duelmaster of
ARUAK CITY! 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!
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. ARUAK CITY, city of gladiators!
Mighty among the names of thy guilds is BULLDOGS, a guild shunned and avoided by many
in the weekly duels. Apparently the stalwarts of THE BLUES are catching the bulk of
jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids. I can not
but mention with disdain the name of MIRA who this week posted a challenge to a
warrior a full 13 points below in the rankings. I thought MIRA showed great skill
and promise when she overcame DODGER. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? WIGOBANE has sworn to take up religion upon living to tell of his
recent bout with the Dark Arena horrors. A rare thing indeed! My hearty
congratulations POLYDAMAS, for thy revenge upon THE FARMER'S DOG, slayer of thy
fallen comrade. Next time he will know better, eh? Dark alleys may hide both
secrets and assassins. In the arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep
vigil always!
The girls are as pretty in ARUAK CITY as ever I remembered them....and the
fighters as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! 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
