SPY REPORT
Thankyouthankyou. It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in
NIANIA. Hope you enjoy the show. Oh, who am I kidding? I already got paid! We now
have a new top team for all of you guys to dogpile on. HATEFUL now holds the crown
and they are betting they can keep it. Hey everybody, watch out for SHOE THORN, who
flew up 16 points in the rankings after mashing DANGEROUS CRIMINAL like a melon.
Keep your eye on this guy. And falling like a basher in the top ten was OZWEEPAY,
who dropped 4 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with MR. MONKEY.
In front of all the crowds, SKITZO took the Duelmaster's crown for his own. I give
the bum two weeks. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but an onion a day keeps
T.P.s at bay.
But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!
And hey, kiddies, those of you who didn't avoid SPRINGTIME IV, please raise you hand.
Wow. Does NIANIA really have that many liars? And you guys like to boo me? Well,
unsling your rasberries, cause SATAN'S LINT beats feet every time SPRINGTIME IV
smiles at them. Try farming, eh?
Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the
most interesting, though! Ask not the elves for counsel, for they will say both yes
and no. Silly buggers, eh?
Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in NIANIA have no
sense of humor. Or maybe that they were senseless. Well, there goes another Spy
Report. Good luck in next week's fights. Its been real, and its been fun, but it
hasn't been real fun...-- The Unknown Spymaster

PAYMENTS BY CHECK AND MONEY ORDER -- CHANGE
Please note that because of new bank regulations, we can no longer accept any check or
money order drawn off a non-US bank, even if it is in US Funds. We were just informed
by our bank that the fee to process these checks is $40, which is crazy high!
Many apologies to our foreign players, but you will need to either get a check from a
US bank (Chase, Citigroup, etc.) or pay via credit card.
Armsilbar liked being Master of the Stronghold Academy, all except for one part.
He had to talk to Sheila Greywand at least once a week, usually oftener. She was
getting more erratic. More chaotic. That would be the effect of the Grey Wand. It
was a powerful chaotic artifact, and she kept it with her always. She had turned his
predecessor into a frog--or 164 frogs--and then summoned all the members of the
Academy to a frog-leg dinner. That had been, ah, bad. Yes, very bad.
But here he was entering her chambers. With, well, it couldn't be called GOOD
news. And the look she turned on him--she was in an orcish mood today, all scowling
black brows and bared fangs--that made him nervous. But some things had to be done.
He cleared his throat, which seemed to have a frog in it, and said, "It's about the
next tourney prize, Lady. I know it's more than two months away, but this isn't too
soon to start thinking of some new, exciting prize--"
"I have no intention of thinking about 'new, exciting prizes'," she snapped. Or
was that a snarl? "These managers are getting above themselves. They act like I
created the arena system for their amusement! There will be one standard prize for
all the tourneys. Just one."
He had a horrible vision of all the managers walking out in a mass. Perhaps it
wouldn't be that bad, but it wouldn't be good. And if he said the wrong thing, well,
the next frog-leg dinner might be him. "Er, ah, perhaps a specific prize for each
tourney--a spring prize, a summer prize, and so on? The managers expect--"
She exploded. A literal explosion, the force of the blast blew his hair off.
She said several things in an obsolete dialect of orcish. He stepped backward, then
again. The blast had blown the door open behind him. If he could make it out before
something else happened--
"Ribbit! Ribbit!"
