                             Notes from the arena champ.

Topaz is back again. "Topaz" comes from the Sanskrit meaning "fire". Appropriate, if 
you ask me. Infused with the brilliance of the sun, topaz is prized by royalty the 
world over. I guess even the ordinary folk here in Dayla Kiv like it, since I AM the 
most popular warrior (along with a few other awards). 

Speaking of which, yeah, another free turn for Neon Treasures. They just can't get 
enough of us around here.  

May the gods guide your blows straight and true!

                                          -- Topaz Paladin, your Duelmaster

                                      SPY REPORT

     It's me, The Unknown Spymaster here with my bag to give you the news on last 
week's fights.  Hey everybody, watch out for HARRY HOTNECK, who flew up 15 points in 
the rankings after mashing JADE WHISPER like a melon.  Keep your eye on this guy.  In 
front of all the crowds, CORWIN took the Duelmaster's crown for his own.  I give the 
bum two weeks.  Advice to bashers--never force anything, just get a bigger halberd!   
     But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!   
     Death is kind of like a new puppy:  he's always around wanting to play.  (Ha 
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?).  Ask not the elves for counsel, for they 
will say both yes and no.  Silly buggers, eh?   
     Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in DAYLA KIV have no 
sense of humor.  Or maybe that they were senseless.  C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some 
tracks.  And remember, you can pick your friends and you can pick your--(loud boos), 
oh, you've heard that one already!-- The Unknown Spymaster
