                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, in AMEN-TEI a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor.  
So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news.  It seems the training can make the 
difference, as OLD WOMEN is pushed out of top team by NEON ODYSSEY, who came from 3rd 
with a 4-1-1 this turn.  The ULFHEDNAR guild has had a 3-0-0 turn and deserves to be 
watched in the future.  You never know where this kind of thing can lead.  And let's 
see, GROWLSK fought CHENRESIG and gained 16 points and contributed to ULFHEDNAR's 
3-0-0.  NAUSICAA has lost to LI MEI WANG, falling 14 points, while helping make NEON 
ODYSSEY a 4-1-1 turn.  We should ask JI MIN PARK about the thrill of victory, and 
what being the new Duelmaster does for a warrior, she's now the one to ask.  Can 
someone confirm a rumor for me?  I hear the top team makes their losing fighters do 
dishes at The Swinging Aardvark until they win.  Maybe?   
     Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.' 
Inscrutable, but true.  I also notice that the SAFE HAVEN stable was the most avoided 
team this turn.  Come on AMEN-TEI, what are you afraid of?  And avoiding SAFE HAVEN 
more than any other team we find ULFHEDNAR.  AMEN-TEI, are we going to accept, or 
respect this sort of thing?  Well, sports fans, take notice that CHENRESIG from SAFE 
HAVEN was AMEN-TEI's most challenged warrior this turn.  In a brave attempt, WEEZY 
from OLD WOMEN challenged up 21 points to fight INGVAR from the ULFHEDNAR stable.  
WEEZY perhaps got hers just desserts, seeing as she was bested by INGVAR and ended up 
with 73 recognition points.   
     We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and 
shave it close?  Is it really true that AMEN-TEI has more dishwashers per capita that 
fighters?  Just thought I'd ask...   
     I like this place, AMEN-TEI, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls. 
Who could ask for more?  Well, I'm burning daylight here in AMEN-TEI and I've a long 
road ahead of me.  Happy Trails.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper--
