SPY REPORT
Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day,
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again! Say what you will about blind luck and dirty
fighting, but DEATH MOB will tell you 124-146-14 is nothing to laugh at... Practice
pays for CHATTI, who pummelled INVUR KREB, to pocket 21 points. A certain someone
should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 19 points to CHATTI.
(Discrete enough, INVUR KREB?) Now I can't insult RUSSIAN BEAR, as he has gloriously
dueled to the top. Oh great new Duelmaster!!! (Stop me if I lay it on too thick)
Word has it one team in VALAMANTIS is taking speech lessons to try to bore their
opponent to death. I'll bet it works.
My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter.
But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights! To quell some nasty rumors, the guys
in DEATH MOB are not carrying any incurable diseases. No need to avoid 'em. As a
woman of good breeding scorns the "warriors" of THE BEARS, so did that sorry team shy
from DEATH MOB If challenges were horses, WOLF RIDER could open up a fast food joint!
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Ask not for
whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee.
Do not think spyreporting in VALAMANTIS is the highlight of my life. As the
seasons change, and the creatures of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to
leave this place. Like a mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid
VALAMANTIS farewell-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
It's been a long day, folks, involving egg caserole, waffles in the shape of Mickey
Mouse, and cold rain, and we don't know if we can sustain the expected level of
conversation here, but we'll give it our second-best shot. The best shot is in the
shop for repairs. -- the Middle Way
Chatti -- Perhaps if you acted out your name, it would help you? Well, not when you
run into a veritable wall of blades, perhaps, but the Infirmary crew might be a
little more gentle. -- Invur Kreb
Ied -- Durned dwarf! I couldn't see you down there, didn't think anyone had even
come out against me until you started whacking away at my knees. Ouch. -- Isombard
Korl
Fratsfa Slave? I'm insulted. -- Chea Edel
Being matched with the Dangerous Criminal is insulting, too, so move over. --
Gormoduc Irn
Salty Dog -- Rain takes care of that. -- Evander Gill
P.S. Temporarily, at least.
