SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of NIANIA! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes,
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. PIGSKIN caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested KORBRIZT HORON and was awarded 25
points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, KINTHIRA put down
FORBIDDEN FRUIT, causing her to lose 7 points of recognition in the process. This
time victory fell to the grasp of the usurper. All hail THE LIZARD KING, Duelmaster
of NIANIA! Would you believe that over half of the old women in NIANIA seem to feel
that they could fight better than you gladiators?
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city NIANIA. NIANIA, city of gladiators! Mighty among the names of thy
guilds is HAMOI TONG, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly duels.
Apparently the stalwarts of MISNOMERS are catching the bulk of jests down at the
challenging board for their large share of the avoids.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Some say a warrior is judged by the way he bears
arms. One thing is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed a
stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me!
Till we meet again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms
no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

Dumb Bull -- Damn, not so dumb after all, are you? -- Korbrizt Horon
Polish Cavalry -- I can't believe they let you bring that horse into the arena! --
Kinthira, sure she's been kicked by a horse
Robot Chicken -- Arrrgh! Go lay a robot egg, dammit. -- Kestraline
Wile E Coyote -- Too sneaky for me. I'm not a sneaky person. Really, I'm not. --
Elinterri
Pigskin -- Tough stuff, pigskin. I could wish, A LOT, that you'd lost. Everybody
else on my team lost, so me losing is not a big thing, in one sense. BUT they will
stick ME with the onus of having produced the ohfer turn, just because I was last. I
hate it when that happens. -- Lugbruk
P.S. And they'll SAY it is all because I'm an orc. Idiots, every one.
