DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Sing, O memory, of Desmodeus, breaker of ranks, whose name the arena stones remember
as thunder remembers the storm. I am he whom iron fears, whose breath is ash and whose
gaze unmans the bold. Not by chance did I rise, but by the long road of blood and
trial, where lesser souls fell like autumn leaves beneath the heel of fate.
Many were the trials set before me: towering brutes clad in bronze, swift duelists
whose blades sang like swallows, unchained from nightmare. Yet each I met as the tide
meets the shoreb"unyielding, eternal. My spear drank deep, my shield bore witness, and
the crowd roared as though to wake the gods themselves.
Know this: glory is no gentle bride. She demands allb"sleep, mercy, and the soft
whisper of doubt. I have given these, and more besides. In the dust of the arena, I
became something greater than man, though less than godb"an echo of warbs own
heartbeat.
Let others boast of lineage or fortune. My tale is carved in scars and sung in cries
of victory. I am Desmodeus, atop the throne, and the arena is my kingdom. [Courtesy of
ChatGPT...]
May the gods guide your blows straight and true!
-- Desmodeus, Duelmaster
SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! Nothing is certain in AMEN-TEI, with changing loyalties, changing
Duelmasters. Write this down: new top team--CHAOS KIDS. Nothing works for a team
like victory (How's that for a perceptive observation?) as BLUE BOARD INN 1 can
attest... Say what you will about blind luck and dirty fighting, but CHAOS KIDS will
tell you 45-34-3 is nothing to laugh at... CHAOS KIDS had cause to celebrate, after
LUCY got 23 points by beating THE ANGRY MEATBALL. Win some, lose some. Speaking of
which, LUCY was winsome, after beating THE ANGRY MEATBALL and seeing him lose 24
points. The arena was more crowded than usual this time, as HOLD faced AMEN-TEI's
Duelmaster. DESMODEUS successfully staved off a grab for the roses by HOLD of SAFE
HAVEN. Does AMEN-TEI have no one talented enough to dethrone him? Word has it one
team in AMEN-TEI is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
So much to report, so little time! Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the
lion, so did the "warriors" in AMEN-TEI avoid SAFE HAVEN. Like a pup with its tail
between its legs, LIBATIONS 3 scurried away from SAFE HAVEN. Oh, the shame! If
challenges were horses, SCWING could open up a fast food joint!
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.
All good things must come to an end. My fingers tire and I fear my incessant
prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable character. Like a mixed
metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid AMEN-TEI farewell-- Novgorodny Vir
