SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly WILLAF games. WELL DON caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested VETERAN MERCENARY and was awarded 14
points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, GOLD DUBLOON put
down MOONSINGER, causing her to lose 2 points of recognition in the process. Not for
nothing has GOLDPLATED in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this
week it's proven its combat skill yet again. No confirmation, but my sources claim
that the top team has gained their position using magical aids. Charmed weapons
perhaps?
Many and various are the arts of battle. In WILLAF "art" is a word that has
long since passed from the language! My inside sources tell me that the team to beat
in WILLAF these days is SERPENTS HOLD 114. At least, most blades in town are looking
to avoid them. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard pressed to
find any of GOLDEN GLADIATORS last week. Busy avoiding SERPENTS HOLD 114?
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins.
In the arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
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 next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a
different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Snake -- That's what happens with slithering serpents that do not write DM Columns.
The loss and then they get thrown out of here. -- Midas
Hori Bull -- When I flashed, did you notice that I was a real blonde? -- Golden Flash
Black Indekker -- After that my globe fills quite full along with golden. -- Golden
Globe
Sofa'Yam -- I just had to see what you were made of since I can't say what your name
is. -- Golden Girl
Snake -- Was that a tint of plating I left all over your periphery? Tsk. Tsk. And
they graduated YOU? -- Goldplated (quite pleased with the win but jealous of the
unfair hand out of Lord Protectorships)
Nightstalker -- That win was worth a lot of money to me. -- Gold Dubloon
Whip Sawyer -- You are such a kind old fellow to let me win fights. You are. --
Golden Girl
P.S. You aren't expecting ME to flash, are you?
Hmmmmmmm. 5-0. Seems like a good thing. Golden, truly. -- Midas
Evebringer -- I'd hate to have to pay your grocery bill. -- Well Don
I've goth this sinking feeling that a random match-up with gold Dubloon is coming my
way. I'll be the first to admit I'm not looking forward to it. I can only pray that
I survive. -- Well Don
Midas -- Hmmm...okay. Whatever you say, but my mgr knows the Consortium well enough
to know that anytime one of your guys is below me in the ranks, I am a potential
target. As such your team will remain an almost permanent fixture on my avoid slot.
*grin* -- Well Don
Our congratulations to Snake. -- Jorja and the Punny Aminals
Golden Flash -- You jinxed me! -- Hori Bull
Golden Girl -- Did your boss help whitewash the fence? -- Whip Sawyer
Golden Globe -- Bowled me over. And the noise! That rumbling crash! That crashing
RUMBLE! Ominous, even terrifying. I'm all a-twitter. -- Black Indekker
Golden Girl -- I'd've been glad to share my couch with you. -- Sofa'yam
Golden Flash -- Not QUITE over in a flash, but close enough. -- Whip Sawyer
I hate those Dangerous Criminals. -- Hori Bull
Derron -- And that wraps up our oh-fer turn. Tedious. -- Hazel Nutte
