SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! I doubt many are quaking in their boots, but DOWN WITH THE SHIP comes
out of nowhere to get 4-1-1. What does the future hold? Watch this space... DOWN
WITH THE SHIP had cause to celebrate, after NEMO got 13 points by beating CONVICTED
THIEF. WOODWALKER successfully staved off a grab for the roses by KHALHUMS DWARF of
MALCORN. Does MALCORN have no one talented enough to dethrone him? So who was the
warrior seen charging into immovable walls and challenging dead trees? Someone's got
a basic problem...
And how sociable are MALCORN's warriors? Come, let us see.
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Questions are
being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the arena. A certain
tavern in MALCORN would I avoid!
Do not think spyreporting in MALCORN is the highlight of my life. As the
seasons change, and the creatures of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to
leave this place. Can anything compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for
MALCORN? On that giddy note I take my leave-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Will Ing -- (enviously) You're so tall, and so blonde. Do you have more fun? I've
HEARD that blondes only have more fun in the summer, and that in the winter the
brunettes get it all. Which doesn't leave much for us redheads. Unless...ah, of
course! WE get spring and autumn! Great. -- Falling Rain
Little Current -- Ah! Whatever kind of current you are, electrical or hydraulic, I
seem to have--for the moment--your number. A pleasant event, doubly so because it
isn't all that common. -- Woodwalker
M. Chardinee was really stingy, taking both the win AND any skills going. Sure, his
style is very foreign to mine, but still, I could have learned SOMETHING if he'd at
least TRIED to teach me. -- Greengrove
Mortikhan -- Sorry to be so rough with you, but that "horrifying power" shook me up.
Not to mention damned near breaking my leg with it. So I got mad, always a mistake
in a fight, though it sometimes works out okay. I'm glad we both survived that. --
Stalking Horse
Mordant Deserter -- Ha, I'll bet you're actually a SPY. -- Wooden Arrow
Mortickhan -- I'm not a horse! You're confusing me with the warriors of Triple
Crown. -- Wooden Arrow
P.S. Why not a wooden arrow? What else would arrows be made from? I've heard of
some made out of reed, but any reed up to the job is pretty much wooden anyway.
P.P.S. What's titanium?
Phantom Lord -- I'll pass. Jorja doesn't like us going out at night. She says we
just get into trouble.
Congratulations to Little Current on graduating. -- everybody at Greenwardens
Greengrove -- You are a lout, young man. You lack any understanding of the arts of
civilized concourse. Meditate on your many sins and then meet me again and we will
see. -- M. Finnian Chardinee

hear from anyone who remembers me, as well as any Alliance that is seeking to add
experienced managers to their roster. Contact me at:

The hotel is located down the freeway in Tempe. All rooms have high speed internet
