                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail and well met warriors of ZUWAYZA!  Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp 
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  Fortune did not smile upon BLACK 
MELEE this time out who this turn suffered a fall into 14th position in the wake of a 
0-0-0 round.  WEEPY WILLOW caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as 
she skillfully bested AUDREY II and was awarded 25 points in recognition.  In one of 
the week's more notable duels, JACKWAGON put down LITTLE BEAR, causing him to lose 11 
points of recognition in the process.  Although UREA made a valiant effort, it did 
not suffice to topple the reign of victorious JAWS.  Would you believe that over half 
of the old women in ZUWAYZA seem to feel that they could fight better than you 
gladiators?   
     Many and various are the arts of battle.  In ZUWAYZA "art" is a word that has 
long since passed from the language!  For some warriors honor is not important--only 
empty victory.  See, gladiators, how PORCELAIN DOLL of CHAOS KIDS challenged down 21 
points to ALMANAC.  Few would not have guessed the outcome of the bout as ALMANAC was 
overcame by PORCELAIN DOLL.  Is this what passes for courage in ZUWAYZA?   
     What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his 
foe's mortality?  My condolences to CHAOS KIDS for their loss of a very promising 
warrior, AUDREY II.  AUDREY II went to doom before the arms of WEEPY WILLOW, a 
warrior of FAR TRAVELERS 2575.  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 next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a 
maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
