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 BLOODSWORN was
unseated this week as DARK CREATION moved up from 4th ranking to take the top spot
with a 3-2-0 record for the round. Warriors--remember that glory waits always around
the corner! Witness how this week DARK CREATION went 3-2-0 to move up 3 in the
rankings. SUGAR BEET caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as she
skillfully bested LUTHERAX and was awarded 28 points in recognition. In one of the
week's more notable duels, SUGAR BEET put down LUTHERAX, causing him to lose 15
points of recognition in the process. Due to his absence and inability to defend the
throne, STRADA has lost the title of Duelmaster. 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. I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's
challenge seeking began. GREENWARDENS is feared. This much I can say. Methinks
more than a few here could name the guild it was that spent the better part of last
week avoiding GREENWARDENS. Indeed it was PLANTS. Mighty fighters cannot but expect
competition from those below. SOMNAMBULANT 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 BET TWICE posted a challenge against the more highly recognized DEANO.
The results, you ask? Well, the firebrand BET TWICE was beat by DEANO. Remember
warriors, this is the discipline of steel.
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable with fortune
but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? 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
Wendigo -- Huh, that went better than I expected, and I can't figure why. Do you
suppose it's because you Convincians are inherently more civilized and have less of
the "bloodthirsty killer instinct" than we Rirorni do? -- Redbird
Lutherax -- (heavy sigh) If you represent "luther with an axe," does that mean I'm
really just a mossy stump to be split into kindling? Ouch. -- Mossrock
Korseth -- I kinda like your name, but that doesn't mean I want you "eagerly seeking
the death blow" while on the sands in my company. I want to live to be a Dirty Old
Man. Let's not mess that up, eh? -- Wind Rider
Pie Eyed Piper -- I gotta find out what you're drinking and get some for myself.
Must be great stuff, the way you go on. -- Stump
Sugar Beet -- I only just said you seemed a sweet little thing. There was no intent
to upset you, honest! -- Rock Maple

I have not been receiving my physical turns in a reliable manner lately. If there
are diplos with the turns that go missing, they're gone for good. So if you send me
a diplo and do not see an acknowledgement of receipt in the personals, know that I
have not gotten it (yet). If you have email, contact me at Livia AT reality DOT com.
If you don't have email, keep trying with the diplos. We are working on this
problem. -- the Scribe/Jorja/Leeta
P.S. If you email me, put "Re DM" on the subject line.
