DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Ooh, a bunch of victories in a tournament and now a Duelmaster in Talcama. My
manager says don't be so shy and have fun, but I just feel I haven't earned this yet.
Ruthie was a tough girl, I can tell you that... it was a good fight to get me here.
Ahh, well, hope everyone fights well and let's see if I can hold onto this. Then
maybe I will start to party a bit. -- Derry Darlin
SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of TALCAMA! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team SHEPHERDS was
unseated this week as CENTER FOR OLDS moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot
with a 4-0-0 record for the round. FROG ZOMBIE caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as she skillfully bested AARON and was awarded 31 points in
recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, FROG ZOMBIE put down AARON,
causing him to lose 12 points of recognition in the process. The city has turned out
in honor of BABY ON BOARD, 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. My inside sources tell me that the
team to beat in TALCAMA these days is RYAN'S HENCHMEN. At least, most blades in town
are looking to avoid them. Apparently the stalwarts of SHEPHERDS are catching the
bulk of jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids.
Loose talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that
many fighters are after THE DUBLINER. Watch your back!
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. Dark alleys may hide both secrets and
assassins. In the arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in TALCAMA. Nice atmosphere you have here! 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
