SPY REPORT
Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.
I doubt MORDANT will ever be the same. It seems the training can make the
difference, as SEA DOGS is pushed out of top team by MANNEQUIN'S BEST, who came from
2nd with a 1-2-0 this turn. The BOOZE guild has had a 3-1-0 turn and deserves to be
watched in the future. You never know where this kind of thing can lead. RECESS has
lost to TIEN-SHU OF GENRAI, falling 20 points, while helping make MANNEQUIN'S BEST a
1-2-0 turn. The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and WAYWARD SON
remains MORDANT's top warrior for another turn. By the way, was that our Duelmaster
that I saw last night, cramped under the table at Conan's Place?
He who challenges well, fights well. He who avoids without cause, shall lose
for good reasons. My mama told me that one. The most challenged warrior this turn
was SEA DOGS' warrior RUM RUNNER. More fighters challenged him than challenged the
Duelmaster! TONY SIRAGUSA of BETTER OFF DEAD had better have a good reason for
challenging down 14 points in a challenge which he won. I thought TONY SIRAGUSA
showed great skill and promise when he beat MIASMA. All right, so I slept through
it! Big deal!
The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed. We'd like to remind certain teams
not to rob the graves of their enemies. You know who you are; and it's considered
rude.
Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare
to fight bravely. Always good to rest in MORDANT, but never good to wear out my
welcome. Look for me in future turns. Until you see my quill in MORDANT again,
farewell-- Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of
a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.
"However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his
first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the
surrounding families, that he is considered the rightful property of some one or
other of their daughters." -- Jane Austen from _Pride and Prejudice_
