TEAM SPOTLIGHT
"Butchah here you fat sod. One don't give ah flying cuss what you, one's old
bean, seay. One is going to avenge one's cousin's deahth. One would be absolutely
top hole, one has to say!" Marquro shouted. He emphasized his anger by slamming his
fist on the desk.
Gutsag sat at the desk that was once owned by their former boss, Eadskar Da' Bad.
He had his face in both hands and his head was beginning to throb.
"I mean, seriously. Hoh in the hells aaare you, one's old bean, going to tell
myself that one cannot defend the honour of not simply the stable but one's cou--"
How can someone just drone on and on? Gutsag remembered the bad old days when
Eadskar was in charge. This conversation would have lasted thirty seconds. Tops!
After the first 'no', Marquro would be lying on his back and wondering how his jaw was
broken. Gutsag still remember the slave that had angered Eadskar. He made the poor
soul run back and forth for white and then red wine for almost fifteen minutes. If
the slave brought white wine, Eadskar would knock him down and tell him he made a
mistake. He wanted red. As soon as he brought red, Eadskar would smack him again and
tell him he had asked for white. The slave finally got smart and brought both red and
white wine. The slave was then beaten unconscious. One broken jaw, four knocked out
teeth, and seven days in a coma later the man was able to walk. A fortnight later and
the migraines had stopped. No one could even remember what had angered Eadskar. But
that slave was on perfect behaviour from that day forth. That is until he dropped
dead. The apothecary said it was because of some brain damaged he had endured. When
asked if he had taken a fall and hit his head, everyone claimed not to know what had
happened. But in the back of their heads, they all know what Eadskar had done to that
poor bastard.
Over in the corner sat 'Acky. The goblin was puffing away on a long stemmed pipe
with a bowl carved into a leering face. The face looked eerily like his own.
"Enough!" Gutsag shouted. "Look 'ere yoos. I am ungry, tired, and outta wine.
I told ya dat ya were goin to yer deth. Luci is good. Damn good. Yah. I know. Ded
was good too. But Luci has da experience. If yoos wanna sign yer deth warrant, go
head. None of us will stop ya. I'll even make sure Igor Svenson give ya a good
burial. Deal?"
Marquro was stunned. He had never thought that Gutsag would finally give in.
His heart raced in his chest and his head throbbed from his shouting. But his anger
was finally abated. He would get satisfaction.
"Thanking yourselves greatly." Marquro said and walked out of the office. He
gently closed the door.
'Hey. 'Acky. Did you just see dat?"
The goblin took a long draw from his pipe and scratched his head in confusion.
"Heh-- See wat?... Heh"
"Yoos just witnessed a walking ded orc. No tourney prize or nuffin."
SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly ARKERS games. There were bitter words at NORTHERN
BADLANDS' guildhouse after a 0-0-0 showing this week which dropped the stable into
11th. Dark Arena anyone? Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the
corner! Witness how this week FOREST GARDEN went 2-3-0 to move up 6 in the rankings.
My praise to THE CHOSEN for their 3-0-0 week this time out. Indeed, it was a
skillfully fought round deserving of notice! THE ANXIOUS MAN caught the eye of many
in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested ZIRCONIUM and was awarded 19
points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, ZANY put down MAUD
STONEGUT, causing her to lose 12 points of recognition in the process. Due to his
absence and inability to defend the throne, UGLY KIDD JOE has lost the title of
Duelmaster. The city has turned out in honor of THE ANXIOUS MAN, for with his arena
victory he may now lay claim to the highest position in the city! Informants "close"
to the city champion have told me that he never fights without pantyhose on beneath
his armor. Watch out!
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city ARKERS. My inside sources tell me that the team to beat in ARKERS these
days is NORTHERN BADLANDS. At least, most blades in town are looking to avoid them.
Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was that spent the better part
of last week avoiding NORTHERN BADLANDS. Indeed it was Z GLADIATORZ. Loose talk at
the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many fighters
are after LUCIFEROUS HOPE. Watch your back! I cannot but express pride for the
fearlessness of BOCEPHUS who cast caution to the winds and challenged WAY JOURNER, a
fighter 32 points higher. Truth to tell, BOCEPHUS did not come out of the fight a
winner, but he managed to capture much attention, gaining 1 in recognition. A match
that raised a few eyebrows at the games this week, it seems that PARIS TROUT posted a
challenge against the more highly recognized MAYFLOWER. The results, you ask? Well,
the firebrand PARIS TROUT lost to MAYFLOWER. Remember warriors, this is the
discipline of steel.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Rite of Bloodfeud must forever be reserved for
teams with honor. Witness ARKERS! THE OUTLAWS 2 has failed to revenge the slaying
of fallen BLACK BART. Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable with
fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? Sadly warriors, now longer can I keep thy
company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till next we
meet remember: a fool flies into a rage quickly and often. The wise are angered by
the same thing only once. Zontani Sharp Eyes
