                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, in ROCANIS a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor.  
So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news.  Now keep the taverns open late 
tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for MIDDLE WAY 20, whose 0-1-0 this turn 
dropped them by 4 into 9th.  And let's see, JAY T SMOOTH fought WHETSTONE and gained 
18 points and contributed to INCONSISTENT FURY's 3-2-0.  DAX STIGLOW has lost to LUMP 
O COAL, falling 16 points, while helping make INCONSISTENT FURY a 3-2-0 turn.  
Defending his title for another turn, PINECONE CHARLY kept BARDIC FLAPPERY's warrior, 
FLAP-DRAGON, from claiming the throne.  By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I 
saw last night, cramped under the table at The Wanton Troll?   
     Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.' 
Inscrutable, but true.  INCONSISTENT FURY has cause to stand tall, as they were 
ROCANIS' most avoided team.  A smart manager knows this is a team to beat.  And guess 
who avoided INCONSISTENT FURY stable the most?  Believe it or not, it was BARDIC 
FLAPPERY.  Anyone surprised?   
     The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.  
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed.  Had I not seen it, it would be hard 
to believe.  TYLER DURDEN was sent to the Dark Arena and lived to tell about it!  
Makes you think, no?  A brave warrior does not carry a red shield, he has nothing to 
cover or hide when the fight is over.  Consider well.   
     Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe.  Dare 
to fight bravely.  It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your 
swords sharp and your hammers heavy.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to 
paper-- Alarond the Scribe
