                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail and well met warriors of OSKSI!  Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes, 
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  Former top team THE BLUES 3 was unseated 
this week as PET SHOP BOYS moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot with a 
2-3-0 record for the round.  There were bitter words at BANGERS & MASH's guildhouse 
after a 0-0-0 showing this week which dropped the stable into 9th.  Dark Arena 
anyone?  CAREY BELL caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he 
skillfully bested KHUFU and was awarded 18 points in recognition.  In one of the 
week's more notable duels, CAREY BELL put down KHUFU, causing him to lose 15 points 
of recognition in the process.  This time victory fell to the grasp of the usurper.  
All hail KHONSU, Duelmaster of OSKSI!  Heed this!  A seer has warned that if exactly 
6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish!  Just remember...5 or 7!   
     Many and various are the arts of battle.  In OSKSI "art" is a word that has long 
since passed from the language!  I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this 
week's challenge seeking began.  BANGERS & MASH is feared.  This much I can say.  
Apparently the stalwarts of THE COUSINS are catching the bulk of jests down at the 
challenging board for their large share of the avoids.   
     Vendettas.  Bloodied blades and broken spears.  Indeed the city has seen more 
than its fair share of red in recent times.  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!  
     The girls are as pretty in OSKSI as ever I remembered them....and the fighters 
as ugly!  Don't let your reputation slip!  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 next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a 
different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
