DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
I will most likely get two more arena fights, but Assur will decide when and
where those fights happen. He's got big goals for me and my teammates. So as much
as I'd like to stay and give Kill Kitten a final thrashing, I'm off to prepare for
Assur's 'Big Plans.'
Welcome back to Moribund and the Heavymetal Kids. Impressive ID Number for Uranium!
-- Crushing Bratz
P.S. Assur says I'm supposed to close my Column with a quote from the past:
"The Wimp is anything but."
SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of TALCAMA! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. MEATH caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested MERCURY and was awarded 17 points in
recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, URANIUM put down FINN MACCOOL,
causing him to lose 17 points of recognition in the process. Due to his absence and
inability to defend the throne, CRUSHING BRATZ has lost the title of Duelmaster. The
city has turned out in honor of AARON, for with his arena victory he may now lay
claim to the highest position in the city! Heed this! A seer has warned that if
exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish! Just remember...5 or
7!
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. ARDUIN GRIMOIRE is feared. This
much I can say. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard pressed to
find any of NEXT GENERATION last week. Busy avoiding ARDUIN GRIMOIRE? Mighty
fighters cannot but expect competition from those below. SPOONIE G take warning!
You have more than a few enemies in TALCAMA. At the gambling halls I have started to
bet money on STROMTIUM 90. He has got the courage it takes. Witness his challenge
this turn against DIP! To be sure the battle was a losing one. But I like to think
STROMTIUM 90 at least gave DIP a run for his money. A match that raised a few
eyebrows at the games this week, it seems that HYDROGEN posted a challenge against
the more highly recognized POG MO THOIN. The results, you ask? Well, the firebrand
HYDROGEN beat POG MO THOIN. 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? Many townsmen have begin to remark over the fact that after one
more round of duels CENTER FOR OLDS' Bloodfeud against KILL KITTEN will have expired.
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 TALCAMA as ever I remembered them....and the fighters
as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far
off city calling to me. I must away! 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
RR -- It took Kill Kitten 65 FE to graduate. Pretty sad for a warrior that was
supposedly trying to graduate. -- Assur
Howlin' Wolf -- Weird that Aaron seems to be able to beat Red Alert twice while Red
Alert made Counselor Obvious look bad. I look at my warriors and do not understand.
-- Assur
Finn Maccool -- Bad matchup for you! -- R-1
Uranium -- Not a very friendly welcome back, I know, but Assur has very clear goals
for me. -- Moses
Mc Shan -- Simple match suggests that the more developed warrior wins. -- Counselor
Obvious
Stromtium 90 -- Having a hard time picking up what I did wrong. Very embarrassing.
-- Pick Hard
