TEAM SPOTLIGHT
By previous arrangement, Papewaio of Hamoi Tong met Kinthira of the Golden Fish
on the wharf at the end of Niania's straggling waterfront. The sun had finally set--
summer days seemed to go on forever--but the harbor was still sweating under a
blanket of steamy air.
Papewaio hesitated, unsure what the woman had in mind, then said, "That was a
good fight, Kinthira. Um... what did you...?"
She laughed. "Nothing bad!" She gestured at one of the houseboats. "This
houseboat belongs to one of my teammates, Spike McGold. He say if we go out far
enough, it's almost cool. And I've got a picnic dinner. And the whole night is
ahead of us."
"You don't have a teammate by that name," the Hamoi warrior said cautiously.
"Oh, he graduated a while back. Had an affair with the Venomous Concubine,
even!"
"Brave man!"
"Or a fool, but that doesn't affect us. If you'd like to go out on the lake."
It was miserably hot in town, there was no denying that. And nothing exciting
likely to happen at his guildhouse tonight. And... Kinthira was a fine figure of a
woman. Just because they were opponents in the arena didn't mean they couldn't be
friendly out of it. "Sure, why not? It would be a pleasure to join you for dinner
on the water."
And it had been a pleasure. It might not have been cooler out on the lake, but
it had seemed so, and that was good enough. The food had been good, not the training
fare he could have expected back in the guildhouse. Papewaio leaned his forearms on
the rail and glanced sideways at his companion. Kinthira had been friendly.
Approachable. But he wasn't sure how far she was prepared to go. Of course he had
hopes, but.... He opened his mouth to speak.
And something jumped out on the water. Something big, the wave when it fell
back rocked the boat. The lamps on the boat didn't reach far, and he couldn't see
what--
Two eyes that glowed like drowned moons moved toward them.

DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
I was telling Papewaio just the other day that it isn't always how well you
fight. Sometimes it's who you know. But then again, sometimes it IS how well you
fight. This day was mine. Maybe tomorrow will be yours, eh?
Kinthira
SPY REPORT
I was going on vacation, see? Surf, sun... But what do those bums say? "Hit
the road, Debby Tonte. NIANIA needs a spyreport." Oh, well. MVP award for DUMB
BULL? DRAGONS' proud of him after beating ELINTERRI and getting 18 points. Talk
about yer big time losers! HOLY COW got smashed by BUNTOKAPI, and lost 11 points!
And I was just getting used to the ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!) Oh well, welcome
POLISH CAVALRY. Aren't MISNOMERS proud. (Oh, my.) Is the Duelmaster really being a
real snob to his teammates? Don't ask me!
Look, you guys stick to fighting, all right? HAMOI TONG was NIANIA's most
avoided team. Is there some award for that? Hhmph! What kind of warriors are
MISNOMERS? HAMOI TONG, an easy team to beat if I ever saw one, can't get them to
accept an invitation!
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.)
I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous Spyreporter? I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it
quits. Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out! Later, Debby Tonte
