I have officially ceded my role as Royal Assassin to Queen Tiffin (at least temporarily). She did an admirable job in planting Chuck Meat, after he killed our teammate. I think this falls firmly into the FAFO category. Now, I know it's not a topic that is top-of-mind for most Aradians, but what's with those Dark Arena names? "Monster Manalger"? Was that an intentional name? Or is it just a misspelling of "Manager", or "Mangler"? Who knows? Will we ever find out? Where's that investigative reporter when you need one? (Is that enough questions in one paragraph?) Until next time, may the gods guide your blows straight and true! -- Royal Assassin, your Duelmaster SPY REPORT You elder fighters surely remember me. The younger ones may call me Olaf Modeen. I return to ARADI once again! Phhbltt! Too much drinking and too little dodging gave INGRATE WHITE NORTH a 0-3-0! I got a good laugh out of it! Up 'n down. Up 'n down. Rankings always change. Up 'n down. I think I'm gonna be... Well, PHILANTHROPISTS' 7th moved them up to 2-0-0 place. THE BUNKHOUSE showed ARADI what they were made of as they fought with a vengeance to walk off with 3-1-0. What's with ATALAN? He actually beat NEON ROYALTY's QUEEN TIFFIN, and walked away with 26 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at PHILANTHROPISTS while they watched ATALAN clobber QUEEN TIFFIN. She lost 37 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands. INGRATE WHITE NORTH's hatred of NEON ROYALTY surfaced again as ERIC GAGN'EH challenged ARADI's top dog. Try as he might, ERIC GAGN'EH wasn't good enough at persuading ROYAL ASSASSIN to step down from the Duelmaster's throne... Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting! No matter the time or place, men will always duel. The most avoided team was 13TH CIRCLE. In my day, no team with a 386-407-17 would scare me off! What's the problem, THE BUNKHOUSE? How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior, BAD RED! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you. Warriors of ARADI unite. You have only your games to lose! Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover stupor. You young rapscallions, take note! Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. ARADI is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and good luck.
