DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
What the heck? Sea Legs goes and leaves me a clear shot at the title, and the
Roving Demon tries to stop me? Do you know how close this place came to having a
Roving Demon for a duelmaster?
Blhu Murther
SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of ZUKAL! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes,
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team SEA DOGS was unseated this
week as BLUE MOON moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot with a 3-2-0 record
for the round. EIGHTH MATE caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as
she skillfully bested BISBEE BLUE and was awarded 22 points in recognition. In one
of the week's more notable duels, SAFFIRA put down COAL BACKER, causing him to lose 2
points of recognition in the process. Not for nothing has BLHU MURTHER in the past
laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's proven his combat skill yet
again. Would you believe that over half of the old women in ZUKAL seem to feel that
they could fight better than you gladiators?
Many and various are the arts of battle. In ZUKAL "art" is a word that has long
since passed from the language!
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the
miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
The girls are as pretty in ZUKAL as ever I remembered them....and the fighters
as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far
off city calling to me. I must away! 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
