SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of ZUWAYZA! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. My praise to VISIONS V2 for their
5-0-1 week this time out. Indeed, it was a skillfully fought round deserving of
notice! ROBERT REICH caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he
skillfully bested SIR BLUEBELL and was awarded 23 points in recognition. In one of
the week's more notable duels, ROBERT REICH put down SIR BLUEBELL, causing him to
lose 10 points of recognition in the process. Who here was not present for the title
fight this week as BULL HALSEY boldly challenged POCKET NEWS in order to strive for
the Duelmasters honors? The city has turned out in honor of BULL HALSEY, 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!
Many and various are the arts of battle. In ZUWAYZA "art" is a word that has
long since passed from the language! My inside sources tell me that the team to beat
in ZUWAYZA these days is LORDS INC.. At least, most blades in town are looking to
avoid them. Apparently the stalwarts of MAN OR BEAST? 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 SHARK NORMAN. Watch your back! A match that raised a few eyebrows at the
games this week, it seems that BEARDED FREAK posted a challenge against the more
highly recognized HOUSE BEAUTIFUL. The results, you ask? Well, the firebrand
BEARDED FREAK won victory over HOUSE BEAUTIFUL. Remember warriors, this is the
discipline of steel.
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. SHARK NORMAN must hold silent, for this
week he was humbled in the arena by a successful Bloodfeud won by DOTTLE of VISIONS
V2. Hail DOTTLE for thy victory! Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the
miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? 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
