SPY REPORT The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon RIZTAB, for I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned! Practice pays for NONELLIA, who pummelled BLACK BARTOK, to pocket 13 points. DONNAMIRA found out that RIZTAB isn't a democracy. You've gotta be the best to be Duelmaster here! Word has it one team in RIZTAB is taking speech lessons to try to bore their opponent to death. I'll bet it works. My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter. But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights! Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the lion, so did the "warriors" in RIZTAB avoid DREAMERS. As a woman of good breeding scorns the "warriors" of BLADES OF TERROR, so did that sorry team shy from DREAMERS Is there life after death? Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after life! Ask not a spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen into an unconscious stupor. Do not think spyreporting in RIZTAB is the highlight of my life. 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 RIZTAB?

I've given it a lot of thought, and I ASSURE you that this is a wholly aristocratic gateau. Only the BEST people eat it, and I'm sure you'll like it just fine, AND everyone will envy you the chance to have some, because I don't make it for just anybody, you know. -- Dora Bell Leovar the Proud is always a pushover for creampuffs. And these have a rum filling, not just cream. After he ate a couple (Shews have very large appetites, even for something this rich), I really WAS able to push him over. -- Donnamira And after Donnamira had dealt with him, he was like soft butter in my hands, easily molded and just a little greasy. -- Jaylene Mokhar Tio the Moneychanger never LEARNS. The idiot. -- Lorimera I noticed that. -- Nonellia LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS ARISTOCLEA was viciously subdued by GUILLOTINE in a 2 minute master's Bloodfeud fight. HIPPASUS handily defeated DONNAMIRA in a 1 minute gruesome one-sided Title match. ARCHYTAS devastated DORA BELL in a popular 1 minute one-sided contest. ALCMAEON demolished DEVAR THE TRAITOR in a 1 minute mismatched competition. LORIMERA viciously subdued BLACK BARTOK in a 1 minute amateur vs. veteran upset fight.
