                             Notes from the arena champ.

VEASTIAN, 

Well I am the first of Pud Power, a GAPDA team, to reach the top of the Arena. I am 
not sure how well I will hold this but I shall warn all challengers: I am Carved Ivory 
for a reason. I will artistically disassemble you. I will carve you up and display 
you. Think not that some Riffile Raff or Neon Pink efforts will be made. Don't think I 
am going to talk about stuffing you man. You will need a Bandanger to doc a Piano 
against your crippled HIP. Fight you not the great Carved Ivory. You find the need to 
vision your blood and wear plaid. Just don't choke cause you want to Avoid me.

                                         -- Carved Ivory great Duel Master of Veastian

                                      SPY REPORT

     The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon VEASTIAN, for 
I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned!  Practice pays for CARDINAL FANG, who pummelled 
PERSISTENT BEGGAR, to pocket 15 points.  INGOT certainly had a baffled expression on 
his face, after losing to TRISTIAN CARTLE and losing 4 points in the process!  Those 
who hoped for a new Duelmaster were disappointed by ARTHUR LEMMING BDA, of FLYING 
CIRCUS II, who despite a 8-3-1 couldn't overcome VEASTIAN's Number 1.  So who was the 
warrior seen charging into immovable walls and challenging dead trees?  Someone's got 
a basic problem...   
     And how sociable are VEASTIAN's warriors?  Come, let us see.   
     Is there life after death?  Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after 
life!  Ask not a spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have 
fallen into an unconscious stupor.   
     Leave me now, you base fools!  As the seasons change, and the creatures of the 
wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave this place.  Do not despair!  I 
shall return!-- Novgorodny Vir
