Jhans:

     "That is a fight you cannot win, Princess Morra," Chancellor Ethylbyrr said.  He
leaned forward to emphasize his point, one hand on the report that had sparked the
discussion.  "It is better not to enter a battle you cannot win."
     "Darron wouldn't--"
     "Princess, your brother is no longer a boy, he is a young man now," the old man
said.  "He will not be pleased to receive...advice from his older sister, much less
commands.  Even without his new friends, he would be reluctant to--"
     "All right, you've made your point."  She looked away.  Looked out the window
across the city of Jhans, but she didn't really see it.  Didn't want to see it, if
the truth be told.  She was surprised to realize that what she really wanted to see
at this moment was her husband, Gryzash the Golden.  She had not felt strongly about
him one way or the other, theirs had been a marriage of political expediency.  But
Gryzash was--had been--a confident, decisive man.  One whose very presence would awe
these quarreling nobles of Jhans into obedience.  Unfortunately, Gryzash was dead.
Her thoughts shifted briefly to their son, Gorris.  She might have stayed in Jhans to
fight the treacherous 'advisors' of her brother, except...it was her first duty to
protect her son and defend HIS heritage.  Let Prince Darron worry about Jhans now.
It was time for her to leave him to it, for good or ill.
     "I must take Gorris to Sibikhas," she said finally.  "That is where my duty lies
now.  That city is his to rule, by rights, but it is easier to hold onto power than
to win it back after it's been lost.  Will you stay here and advise Darron?"
     Ethylbyrr laughed sadly and shook his head.  "The boy--the young man--wouldn't
have me," he said.  "His new friends won't want to share the influence, and...I am a
reminder of his youth.  Which he would prefer to forget as he strives to become a man
in his own eyes."
     "If you remain in Jhans without a royal post, your life won't be worth--"
     "It will be worth nothing at all," the old man said.  "I will be dead by the
time you clear the city's gates."
     She nodded.  There was no mercy in the Delarquan Federation for someone who fell
from power.  "Come with me to Sibikhas, then.  It would be a shame to waste your wit
and experience, old friend."
     The old man half rose from his seat across the table and bowed.  "I would be
honored to serve you in Sibikhas or elsewhere, Princess."  Seating himself again, he
said, "But you cannot simply decide to leave Jhans and then go.  You will need, at
the very least, bodyguards.  The Jhans Royal Guard you cannot take with you--they
belong here and will provide some protection from Darron, if he does not run
completely mad and dismiss them.  So you will need--"
     "Gladiators," she said firmly.  "Two or three, at least, as many as half a dozen
perhaps.  They are--"
     "They are crude men, for the most part," Ethylbyrr protested.
     "So?  They are less likely than any others to have political axes of their own
to grind.  I will have gladiators for bodyguards."  She grimaced.  "I will need
them."

This is a call for volunteers.  A personal, or an email to Livia@reality.com will do
it.

                                 DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
                             Notes from the arena champ.

My Darkness conquered Niania for I am Morador.  For a Slasher such as myself to
routinely reign supreme over Total Parry Scum like Toofless and Fierce One Eye shows
how good I am.  The fact that Scum now rule in my stead shows how bad Niania is.
Shame on this paltry arena for I, Morador, never truly tested my skill. For me to
graduate at 16-4-0 speaks as badly about you all as it does well of me.  For shame.
I hope this town rots in the pits of hell!

Morador, the Evil one that Shocking Toad hopes to control!

                                      SPY REPORT

     I can't believe the violence in NIANIA!  I still haven't told Mom I'm writing 
Spyreports.  She'd have a cow!  Well, here we go...  Like, KNOT WHOLE had to be so 
embarrassed when they got kicked off #1 spot by BIG COUNTRY!  Way to go BIG COUNTRY!  
I don't wanna hurt anybody's feelings or anything, but KNOT WHOLE really goofed with 
their 0-0-0.  RESURRECTION like really fought hard to move up to 2nd from 5th.  Way 
to go!  What was the name of that team who got 3-1-0 this turn for a total 65-53-1 
you ask?  (Sure)  BIG COUNTRY's their name, and fighting's their game!  MVP award for 
TOLDERST?  RESURRECTION's proud of her after beating COMEDY and getting 19 points.  
Talk about yer major upsets!  SAYANA's match with DESPAIR cost her a loss of 16 
points!  Don't you think the Duelmaster is being unfair?  I think MORADOR should let 
HALF-TIME be Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it.  Is the Duelmaster 
really being a real snob to his teammates?  Don't ask me!   
     I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies.  Really, I just 
wing this stuff.  GLORY BOUND TROLLS was NIANIA's most avoided team.  Is there some 
award for that?  Is there some deep dark secret why BIG COUNTRY's been avoiding GLORY 
BOUND TROLLS so much?  Or is it just that they're too scared?  Can THE GOLDEN FISH's 
ABALONEA be more popular than me?  She was challenged the most, but is that really 
the same?   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All NIANIA ever talks about is fighting!  Me, 
I'm more laid back.  Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like to hear 
from you?  Write!  (Or have someone write for you.)  
     Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain.  Soak it in cold water, and hand 
wash.  I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really should stop.  I had 
a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte

Jarck -- Shouldn't you be in Kati-Tei?  I think you'd be HAPPIER there, you know. --
Analira

Fierce One-Eye -- Ah, you should call yourself "Pierce One-Eye," because you pierced
me many times over.  Ouch. -- Abalonea, a many-eyed button

Hey!  I killed a Userous Merchant!  Do I get a medal for that? -- Yellow Pike
P.S.  He was VERY userous, you know.

THAT was a Cult Member?  Pah.  They don't make cult members like they used to, that's
for sure.  What a wimp. -- Lubaya
P.S.  He wasn't worth killing.

Despair -- They tell me that's the worst sin there is, so I try to avoid giving in to
you. -- Nellistha

Smolt -- Did you notice Prowess at the burial?  She was the one that threw that
dandelion on your casket!  Subtle enough? -- Formidable, created for the purposes of
your destruction
P.S.  Gonna bring on Morador, your big slasher gun?

Assur -- Not a manager.  I was talking about the Rocket Richard, a great hockey
player from days past who skated for the Montreal Canadians.  Nonetheless, sorry
'bout The Rocket. -- Sultan

Nellistha -- Not to worry; those were unfair challenges in that they were initiated
by me.  But, I have to admit, a certain amount of my success was attributed to female
prow. -- Prowess

8 December 2003
Greetings!  I would like to invite everyone to Jhans (DM 36) for the first annual kLk
St. Valentine's Day Massacre (kill contest).  We will start the contest off with the
ceremonial burning of the Andorian flag on turn 450.  (Six turns away.  Roughly mid-
February.)  The contest will run for 10 turns.  On turn 461, 3 separate victors will
be announced.  Team with the most kills, warrior with the most kills, and alliance
with the most kills.  Prizes will be awarded to the manager of the team with the most
kills and to the manager of the warrior with the most kills.  The prizes will
probably be team roll-ups.  The number of roll-ups has yet to be determined.  The
contest is sponsored by Jhans' newest, (but by the time the contest starts) largest
alliance, the kLk (pronounced "klick"). -- Polarius, mgr. of Blitzkrieg DM 36
