Between Ibizond and Korga:
The hound that Fist of Kjarran had crippled was dragging itself down the road
toward its approaching master, whining pitifully. If it had been a proper dog, the
gladiator might have regretted the injury. As it was...serve the damned beast right.
As the hound had appeared to grow when it charged him, so did the hunter. What
might have been a big horse--if it was a horse at all--became huge, and its rider
dominated the sky. He...it seemed to wear a crown of cold lights, or maybe there
were northern lights in the sky behind its head. No, that wasn't north, that was
southeast. Fist shook his own head to clear out the fantasies. As the rider passed
the crippled hound, he cried out in a terrible voice, a word Fist didn't know and
didn't want to know. An evil word, he was sure. Maybe a spell, or a vow of
vengeance. Not that it mattered! He had the protection of Kjarran and Jayde. He
raised his sword against the moon-colored blade that was swinging down out of the
stars above him.
"Kjarran and Jayde guide my hand!" Fist shouted, and then the blow fell against
his blade with enough force that it drove him to his knees. The hunter's blade was
white as bone, his own turned red as life's blood, and warmth came into his hands
from his two-handed grip on it, and down his arms, to counter the icy air that
cloaked his opponent. He was a little surprised to find himself still alive after
such a blow, more surprised still to find his blade unbroken. Nothing but the direct
intervention of his god Kjarran and the god's Daughter Jayde could have preserved his
life, he was sure. And the only proper way to show appreciation of that aid was to
get up and fight. Which he would do.
As the hunter's blade was withdrawn and raised for another blow, Fist lurched to
his feet. The hunter was thundering more of his evil-sounding words, they seemed to
streak toward him like arrows, like an icy hail or the bitterest wind of winter, and
it was hard to stand against them, the coldness and the hate and the fury.
Impossible to stand against another powerful sword-stroke delivered in their wake.
Fist did the only thing he could think of and threw himself forward under the falling
blade, slashing at the horse's forelegs where it reared high, then at its belly as he
rolled under it and out into the road.
The horse screamed as cold-gleaming coils emerged from its belly and came down
on all four feet, stumbled when one of its front legs wouldn't hold, and fell. The
hunter leaped free, but the fallen horse was now between him and his prey. Cold
light, colder than moonlight and without that clean purity, shivered around him.
The intestines that had spilled from the horse writhed like snakes, or like an
animated snare, coils twisting toward Fist. If they caught him, the gladiator
believed they would be like a snare and would hold him for the vengeance of the
hunter. He edged backward, not taking his eyes off the hunter but wondering uneasily
what had become of the hounds. The idea of one or two of those hell-hounds coming up
behind was enough to shake the steadiest nerves.
As though in answer to his worry, one of the hounds howled pain behind him.
"We've got your back," Cadal said. At that moment, the barbarian's voice was
the sweetest sound Fist could imagine.
"Serimna shield us all with her mercy!" Zilla added.
There were several butchery whacks interspersed with screams, and Aghtamar
growled, "What does it take to kill the damned thing?"
The knowledge that his friends were at his back, ready to stand and fight beside
him, was more warming than sunlight.
"The hounds won't close with us on their own," Cadal reported from close behind
him. "If we can take out the hunter, we may be home clear on this."
"That won't be easy," Fist of Kjarran observed. "These things can be hurt, but
damned if I know what will kill them." He staggered as one foot was dragged out from
under him. Someone caught his arm and kept him from falling while he looked down.
And swore. A loop of the horse's intestines had wrapped itself around his ankle. He
slashed downward to free his foot, then threw himself to the side just as the hunter
struck. Blades rang together as one of his comrades parried the blow. The hunter
spoke more of his unknown words that might be spells or cursing. Or really cursing,
if it came to that, really laying a curse.
Fist pushed himself to his feet again and faced his opponent grimly. "Kjarran
and Jayde, this has got to STOP." He raised his sword, noting that the blade had
gone red again, and advanced on the dark shape of the hunter. The blade burned as
hot as the hunter was cold and made a sound like a deep-voiced bell very far away.
Fist felt a presence, a force, move through his body, and without willing it he
lunged forward, driving the bright-burning blade toward the hunter. There was a
roaring around him, and he felt as though he'd been caught in a twist of wind, or an
earthquake, something natural and violent and beyond his control. It was a relief to
faint.

SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, RIZTAB? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens
before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Now keep the taverns open late tonight,
for there are sorrows to drown for SWEET MAGIC, whose 0-5-0 this turn dropped them by
4 into 11th. Ha! BARJIN'S BEST turned their 2-2-0 turn into a 5th place rank in the
listings this turn. Any better than this, and you get put on hit lists. Gee, I'm
impressed, a 4-1-0 is nice, but don't get cocky, BLOODSUCKERS, the Fates teach
humility, and the Fates are proud. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see
SHORT TERM 2 win a fight and gain 19 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, DENOGGINIZER beat
OCTAPUSSY and OCTAPUSSY lost 18 points. You're breakin' my heart. And if variety is
the spice of life, RIZTAB may be getting bland, as CUNNING CALICO stays top dog in
the city. I'm not in a very good mood today, but why am I telling you this? You
want to know what's new, don't you, RIZTAB?
My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start
talking.' I loved that woman. ARENA FELINES, I suppose you'll be glad to know you
were this turn's most avoided team. Care to know who is the most afraid of you? And
it looks like BLOODSUCKERS avoided them the most this turn. What a pack of would be
losers, if you ask me. Hmph. Ooh, I'm frightfully impressed, NANETTE was this
turn's most challenged warrior. Watch that ego swell, sports fans.
Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for RIZTAB's
morgue. More variety. Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through use.
Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.
There's got to be a better place in RIZTAB to get a drink than The Warty Toad!
Any suggestions? Well, I've had enough of this drivel, and I'm sure you have too.
Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather. I see the crowds are getting restless, I
must leave now-- Snide Clemens

TOURNEY FREEZE CHANGE -- ADVANCE NOTICE
Beginning at the Winter Face-to-Face in Tempe (January 2004), we will implement
several changes affecting tournaments. The tournament announcement for the upcoming
FTF and future tourneys will reflect these changes.
First, we will eliminate the tourney freeze for all regular DM warrior classes.
Regular DM warriors will not be classed ahead of the tournament, but instead will
fight according to their FE on the date of the tourney. There will still be a freeze
for the ADM classes, occurring on the same timeline as before, approximately 6 weeks
before the tournament.
In addition to the above change, the warrior classes will be slightly altered.
The new tourney classes will be as follows:
DM Tourney Classes ADM Tourney Classes
====================== ======================
0 FE: Rookies Freshmen
1-4 FE: Apprentices ADM
5-10 FE: Initiates Eligibles
11-20 FE: Adepts ---induction---
21-30 FE: Champions Contenders
31+ FE: Challengers Primus
All regular DM tourney classes will remain solely FE based. All ADM classes will
now be based on warrior characteristics (i.e., the ADM split algorithm), including the
Freshmen class.
The Gateway and Primus arenas will be merging before the FTF to form one top
arena. These warriors will be split into two tournament classes, the Contenders and
the Primus classes, again based upon their characteristics. More information on this
will be published in the newsletters for those arenas.
If you have any questions about the above changes, please contact Customer
Service. Good luck in your games.
