SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of MALCORN! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team WEST COAST WARRIORS
was unseated this week as MEAT MARKET moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot
with a 2-3-0 record for the round. Fortune did not smile upon WEST COAST WARRIORS
this time out who this turn suffered a fall into 5th position in the wake of a 2-3-0
round. Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner! Witness how
this week STARBASE 5 went 2-3-0 to move up 3 in the rankings. VAREKAI caught the eye
of many in the gladiatorial commission as she skillfully bested COUNT KOMA and was
awarded 12 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, BLACKWIND
put down GREENGROVE, causing him to lose 7 points of recognition in the process. Not
for nothing has CHARISMATIC in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and
this week he's proven his combat skill yet again. Would you believe that over half
of the old women in MALCORN seem to feel that they could fight better than you
gladiators?
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. MALCORN, city of gladiators!
Mighty among the names of thy guilds is GREENWARDENS, a guild shunned and avoided by
many in the weekly duels. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard
pressed to find any of PHILANTHROPISTS last week. Busy avoiding GREENWARDENS? Loose
talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many
fighters are after GREENGROVE. Watch your back! I can not but mention with disdain
the name of PHILOSOPHER who this week posted a challenge to a warrior a full 9 points
below in the rankings. I thought PHILOSOPHER showed great skill and promise when he
beat FIERCE TIGER. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers
the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
The girls are as pretty in MALCORN as ever I remembered them....and the fighters
as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! Sadly warriors, now longer can I keep thy
company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till next we
meet remember: a fool flies into a rage quickly and often. The wise are angered by
the same thing only once. Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Charismatic -- We keep meeting. Not that I mind. You whammy me with your charisma
and I'd do anything for you. Anything. -- Greengrove
P.S. Well...nearly anything.
Green Eggs & Ham -- What a sickening thought! What a nauseating image, in fact. --
Tree Shadow
P.S. Is the ham green, too, or just the eggs?
If it's just eggs, maybe they're duck eggs. I understand they are sometimes
green before they've been sitting out for several weeks. -- Ed.
Incubus -- You're not alone in that. None of us like hospitals. It's part of the
job description. -- Jessalin
Oh, a convicted thief. Boring. -- Pebble
Death to embezzlers! -- Patterson Pine, with very strong feelings on the subject
Go and Go -- A good thought, but I just don't seem to have it in me. -- Greengrove
5 November 2005
It is with a proud heart that I announce the newest member of the Desolate Empire
alliance. Dok Sik will be known from here forth as Dark Knight Dok Sik, of the

flow freely! -- The Dark Knights Wasby and Toker
