SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly WILLAF games. Former top team SHADOWMONGERS was
unseated this week as PUNNY AMINALS moved up from 3rd ranking to take the top spot
with a 4-1-0 record for the round. SOFA'YAM caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested EMBEZZLING SCRIBE and was awarded 15
points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, WELL DON put down
GOLDEN FLASH, causing him to lose 5 points of recognition in the process. Due to his
absence and inability to defend the throne, TWILO TALON has lost the title of
Duelmaster. The city has turned out in honor of DEE NILE, for with hers arena
victory she may now lay claim to the highest position in the city! Informants
"close" to the city champion have told me that he never fights without pantyhose on
beneath his armor. Watch out!
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. I saw one fighter that warriors
avoided when this week's challenge seeking began. REALLY? is feared. This much I
can say. Apparently the stalwarts of GOLDEN GLADIATORS 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. EVEBRINGER take warning!
You have more than a few enemies in WILLAF.
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? The warrior's path is harsh. For mediocrity there is but one
reward--death. This past week HEART OF GOLD, at 4-7-0, departed WILLAF forever.
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 WILLAF as ever I remembered them....and the fighters
as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed
a stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me!
Till we meet again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms
no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Twilo Terror -- Congratulations on the DM Title. What a fine record, also! You
remind us of an old Consortium friend in DM63 (on The Kansans coached by Senator Bob

your quest. -- Midas (feeling both complimentary and quite jealous)
Stabbing Westward -- I just flashed right by you, didn't I? -- Golden Flash
Everbringer -- It was a good day and a lucky day for me. I think we are equals and I
just rolled better. (Is rolling a tactic?) -- Gold Dubloon
The Userous Merchant -- I took you for all you had. -- Golden Globe (feeling most
userous)
Moonsinger -- I have a big heart and you always come first to mind. -- Heart Of Gold
A 4-0? Well, thank you for The Christmas present, Golden Gladiators. -- Midas
Has anyone seen my Golden Goose lately? -- Midas
Flew south for the winter?
Gold Dubloon -- You said it, not us. -- the Punny Aminals
Golden Globe -- You're just an old softie. -- Dee Nile
Twilo Talon -- Such fierceness in such a small body! I'm stunned! Smitten, even.
Marry me! -- John Dere
Razored Swings -- I don't know who you figured to shave close, but I wasn't going to
play that game with you regardless. -- Hori Bull
Chicken Whisperer -- That was VILE. I will have nothing to do with it. -- Dee Nile
Hipy Hippy Shake -- You are indeed a brute. -- Black Indekker
Oh, good, an easy beginning. And I begin as I mean to go on, too! -- Whip Sawyer
ALL -- MERRY CHRISTMAS, HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL IN ALASTARI!!!
May your year end in peace and the new year hold great things for you and your
