SPY REPORT
Greetings, Warriors of ZUKAL. Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir to give
you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport. Say what you will about
blind luck and dirty fighting, but RED FURY will tell you 140-133-9 is nothing to
laugh at... Practice pays for FUSE, who pummelled RIGEL STONE, to pocket 19 points.
A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 14
points to IM THE TRIED & TRUE. (Discrete enough, CHANTAL?) You could cut the tension
with a scimitar as ODDLY ELEGANT of DEVIATION met the Duelmaster. In ZUKAL, nothing
is permanent (except Death), and we find ourselves a new Duelmaster, ODDLY ELEGANT.
So who's the team that's been walking into taverns last week and ordering milk?
Sounds like a PR stunt to me.
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Perhaps the warriors of QUEEN should take up some
hobbies, as they are the most avoided team... Like a pup with its tail between its
legs, DEVIATION scurried away from QUEEN. Oh, the shame!
Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors.
Ask not a spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen
into an unconscious stupor.
All good things must come to an end. My fingers tire and I fear my incessant
prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable character. Can anything
compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for ZUKAL? On that giddy note I take
my leave-- Novgorodny Vir
