                                      SPY REPORT

     You elder fighters surely remember me.  The younger ones may call me Olaf 
Modeen.  I return to NIANIA once again!  What's with CUTPURSE?  He actually beat THE 
GOLDEN FISH's BARRUK, and walked away with 19 more points from the fight.  Laughs 
were big at DUNGEON CELL while they watched CUTPURSE clobber BARRUK.  He lost 15 
points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands.  Try as she might, 
ELINTERRI wasn't good enough at persuading POLISH CAVALRY to step down from the 
Duelmaster's throne...  Wouldn't it be nice to have live subjects to practice on?  I 
hear some team is looking into the uses of convicted prisoners.   
     If at first you don't succeed, avoid.  That'll get you in the Spyreports.   
     A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing.  Some fighters 
don't accept this.  The best do.  Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover 
stupor.  You young rapscallions, take note!   
     Well, I'm pretty much through.  You guys need to get back practicing.  NIANIA is 
a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places.  I don't want to 
overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen

I don't know.  I bet if I cut Pikestave up into tiny pieces I could fit him in a
purse.  It would have to be a really large one.  But I specialize in taking things
OUT of purses, anyway. -- Cutpurse

Bah.  Two-three, with the wins over standbys and the losses to managed gladiators.
Typical, utterly typical, and just LIKE Kestraline to leave us with this
unsatisfactory performance.  SHE can go off and retire, and WE have to deal with it.
Bah. -- Elinterri
