SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of ZUKAL! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes,
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. My praise to THE WILLBURYS 9 for their
3-1-0 week this time out. Indeed, it was a skillfully fought round deserving of
notice! NERISA TEAL caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as she
skillfully bested KERNAL and was awarded 18 points in recognition. In one of the
week's more notable duels, NERISA TEAL put down KERNAL, causing her to lose 13 points
of recognition in the process. Although KUNG-FU MASTER made a valiant effort, it did
not suffice to topple the reign of victorious PREDATOR. 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! ZUKAL, city of gladiators! Mighty among the names
of thy guilds is BLUE MOON, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly duels.
Apparently the stalwarts of PAPERBOYS 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!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in ZUKAL. Nice atmosphere you have here! 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 Sharp Eyes
