SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of MALCORN! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. REDBIRD caught the eye of many in
the gladiatorial commission as she skillfully bested WENDIGO and was awarded 14
points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, REDBIRD put down
WENDIGO, causing her to lose 12 points of recognition in the process. Who here was
not present for the title fight this week as SILVAMERE boldly challenged HOMUNCULUS
in order to strive for the Duelmasters honors? Although SILVAMERE made a valiant
effort, it did not suffice to topple the reign of victorious HOMUNCULUS. 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 MALCORN. MALCORN, city of gladiators! Mighty among the names of thy
guilds is BLOODSWORN, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly duels.
Apparently the stalwarts of PLANTS are catching the bulk of jests down at the
challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Mighty fighters cannot but
expect competition from those below. STRADA take warning! You have more than a few
enemies in MALCORN. A match that raised a few eyebrows at the games this week, it
seems that VITAE posted a challenge against the more highly recognized SOMNAMBULANT.
The results, you ask? Well, the firebrand VITAE defeated SOMNAMBULANT. Remember
warriors, this is the discipline of steel.
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! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far
off city calling to me. I must away! Till next we meet remember - the pen is
mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
