                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings warriors!  It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the 
clash and bustle of the weekly ZUWAYZA games.  Former top team CHAOS KIDS was 
unseated this week as LAKOTA moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot with a 
4-1-0 record for the round.  Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the 
corner!  Witness how this week UNDERWORLD went 1-0-0 to move up 4 in the rankings.  
My praise to LAKOTA for their 4-1-0 week this time out.  Indeed, it was a skillfully 
fought round deserving of notice!  SHELDON caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial 
commission as he skillfully bested EAGLE WOMAN and was awarded 12 points in 
recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, SHELDON put down EAGLE WOMAN, 
causing her to lose 5 points of recognition in the process.  Not for nothing has 
BLACK KNIFE in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's 
proven his combat skill yet again.  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.   
     Vendettas.  Bloodied blades and broken spears.  Indeed the city has seen more 
than its fair share of red in recent times.  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 ZUWAYZA.  Nice atmosphere you have here!  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 we meet again, remember:  a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, 
and harms no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
