DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Fare you well, Titan, and I hope you found the Dark Arena's offer productive.
One hears such strange tales about Tirninthienesseneterielle, the High Elf, how he
stands in front of a mirror every day for an hour, murmuring his own name and
smiling!
I can't say that M. Konvalh Chardinee had much to offer. One skill? Heck.
Erbin Frorlin
SPY REPORT
The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon ALJAFIR, for
I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned! The boys at THE WONDERS are walking tall, as they
are ranked 6th on their first try! Going for the Duelmaster soon? Practice pays for
FORCAS, who pummelled VINN WULF, to pocket 19 points. Win some, lose some. Speaking
of which, NYNAEVE HAXAN was winsome, after beating AIM BITTER HAMMER and seeing him
lose 9 points. ERBIN FRORLIN found out being ALJAFIR's Duelmaster isn't all nuts and
berries, receiving 2 challenges! The arena was more crowded than usual this time, as
ETIEN HAXAN faced ALJAFIR's Duelmaster. Now I can't insult ETIEN HAXAN, as he has
gloriously dueled to the top. Oh great new Duelmaster!!! (Stop me if I lay it on
too thick) So who was the warrior seen charging into immovable walls and challenging
dead trees? Someone's got a basic problem...
So much to report, so little time! Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the
lion, so did the "warriors" in ALJAFIR avoid AIM 4 ISLE HAMMERZ. As a woman of good
breeding scorns the "warriors" of HEROESANDFOUNDONES, so did that sorry team shy from
AIM 4 ISLE HAMMERZ
Is there life after death? Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after
life! HIGH ELF in the Dark Arena wasn't enough for YELLOW ORC of HEROESANDFOUNDONES.
Maybe that certain serving girl(?) at The Vile Vizier will be! MAXA SMASHU of
BALANCE OF TERROR spared BLUE ORC (8-23-0) from having to lose any more fights.
What's your next plan, HEROESANDFOUNDONES? Questions are being raised about the
disposing of severed body parts in the arena. A certain tavern in ALJAFIR would I
avoid!
All good things must come to an end. My fingers tire and I fear my incessant
prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable character. ALJAFIR, I leave
you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Vile Vizier. 'Til next
time-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Artemidorus -- Yes, well, THAT was heartening! Down-challenged by someone with more
than twice my recognition points, the same number of regular fights, and I WON! That
was a rush, and I thank you for it. -- Stelra Tirins
Oh, M. Chardinee. Bah. -- Straight Line
P.S. I laugh at M. Chardinee, ha ha.
P.P.S. Actually, it was an unequal match for him (over and above the inequality
involved in the fact that he was facing ME). No doubt he did his best. Such as it
is.
Etien Haxan -- Winner or not, you're still a wimp. -- Wendol Varn, tempting fate
Lenislichi of Venjek, Venomous Concubine. I hate a match with her. What a virago!
And maybe other, darker, things. It makes you wonder why she got slung out of
Venjek, you know? Might have been some very good reasons. -- Vinn Wulf
