It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the clash and bustle of the weekly KOLACT games. Former top team QUBIT was unseated this week as SIR AGLIO moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot with a 3-1-1 record for the round. My praise to THE MOONDOGS for their 3-1-0 week this time out. Indeed, it was a skillfully fought round deserving of notice! ESTRELLA caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as she skillfully bested QUASIMODO and was awarded 29 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, ESTRELLA put down QUASIMODO, causing him to lose 32 points of recognition in the process. Although ACTAON made a valiant effort, it did not suffice to topple the reign of victorious QUO VADIS. No confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has gained their position using magical aids. Charmed weapons perhaps? But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades that is city KOLACT. Mighty fighters cannot but expect competition from those below. LAUGHTER take warning! You have more than a few enemies in KOLACT. Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand ready at your right hand forever! I must report the passing of MR SHRDLU, veteran of many duels. 9-9-0 final record His was not illustrious--but death plays no favorites. Cruelly, SIR ENDER of SIR AGLIO has slain the lesser ranked MR SHRDLU. Word already flies around town that SPRINGBORN plans a bloodfeud! Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this! If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times already in KOLACT. 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.
