SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in ZUKAL this turn, and let's start
with a look at some of the teams. And let's see, ME-OUCH fought BLUE SHREW and
gained 13 points and contributed to ARENA FELINES' 4-1-0. ZULOR has lost to BOO BOO
KITTY, falling 8 points, while helping make BLUE MOON a 1-4-0 turn. Defending his
title for another turn, PUSS kept ZUKAL's warrior, KHALHUMS DWARF, from claiming the
throne. Can someone confirm a rumor for me? I hear the top team makes their losing
fighters do dishes at The Blue Boar Inn until they win. Maybe?
The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more
could a warrior ask of life? Well, besides that. The most challenged warrior this
turn was BLUE MOON's warrior BLUE HAVEN. More fighters challenged him than
challenged the Duelmaster! Tsk, tsk, tsk. CAT-FU, does your manager know you're
challenging down 17 points to fight BLUE HAVEN from BLUE MOON? We're not surprised
to hear that CAT-FU won victory over BLUE HAVEN, but I bet it would be interesting to
hear why ARENA FELINES made such a challenge.
We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and
shave it close? It's a dark day for LETTER BOMBS, seeing how TRUE BLUE from BLUE
MOON has not been revenged for killing D. RAIL. We'd like to remind certain teams
not to rob the graves of their enemies. You know who you are; and it's considered
rude.
Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the
sweetest. Well, I'm burning daylight here in ZUKAL and I've a long road ahead of me.
Happy Trails. Until you see my quill in ZUKAL again, farewell-- Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
Maine Coon -- Today, you fought like a Minor Coon. A little too much boldness in
your challenge, perhaps. Not to mention that little physical problem. Bent Arm
Hangs, that's what you need. Lots of them. (shudder) Better you than me! -- Blue
Haven, not hanging by anybody's bent arms
The Userous Merchant was definitely NOT "true blue." In fact, not colorfast at all.
He bled all over everything. Very messy. -- True Blue
P.S. But he taught well. That is appreciated.
Boo Boo Kitty -- Oh, now, THAT was low! Defeat me if you must, you wretched feline,
but I consider it a grave personal insult when you try to bury me in the sand. --
Blue Shrew
P.S. And this after learning four skills from me! The ingratitude!
This Convicted Thief is pathetic. He started cringing the moment he stepped out on
the sands and then surrendered after a harsh look. What a wimp. -- Zulor
P.S. Of course, I AM fearsome.
Me-Ouch -- I had a cat like you once. He spent a lot of time flying across the room,
and one time the window toward which he was traveling at a high speed was open. That
was the last I saw of him. -- Ultorino
P.S. Possibly because I was living in a sixth-floor apartment at the time.

We of the Desolate Empire Alliance want to announce with glad hearts that Heathen
Hatebred is no longer just a friend, but also an alliance-mate. Heathen brings a lot

freely! -- Dark Knights of the Desolate Empire
