SPY REPORT
Good day, in SOLVEN a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor.
So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news. And let's see, HATE MY LIFE fought
MAULT LIQUOR and gained 15 points and contributed to KELLUMBO'S KIDS' 3-1-0. MAULT
LIQUOR has lost to HATE MY LIFE, falling 8 points, while helping make MAULS LOCAL 457
a 2-1-1 turn. The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and HOT EIGHTEEN
remains SOLVEN's top warrior for another turn. By the way, was that our Duelmaster
that I saw last night, cramped under the table at The Victory Tavern?
He who challenges well, fights well. He who avoids without cause, shall lose
for good reasons. My mama told me that one. MAULS LOCAL 457 has cause to stand
tall, as they were SOLVEN's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team
to beat. And avoiding MAULS LOCAL 457 more than any other team we find KELLUMBO'S
KIDS. SOLVEN, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing? Well, sports
fans, take notice that MAULTESE FALCON from MAULS LOCAL 457 was SOLVEN's most
challenged warrior this turn. Well now, what do you expect when someone like LITTLE
SMIRK from KELLUMBO'S KIDS challenges down 18 points to fight ELDON KREE of MIDDLE
WAY 15? We're not surprised to hear that LITTLE SMIRK subdued ELDON KREE, but I bet
it would be interesting to hear why KELLUMBO'S KIDS made such a challenge.
A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to
be true. Is it really true that SOLVEN has more dishwashers per capita that
fighters? Just thought I'd ask...
Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the
sweetest. Always good to rest in SOLVEN, but never good to wear out my welcome.
Look for me in future turns. Until you see my quill in SOLVEN again, farewell--
Alarond the Scribe

Little Smirk -- Gods, you're insufferable. How do you-- No, I suppose it's a gift
and you don't KNOW how you get that way. But just consider, this is a gift horse you
probably SHOULD look in the mouth, because it will do horrible things to your social
life down the road. And do NOT tell me you "don't want/need a social life." Easy to
say now, harder in a few years. A social life--a pleasing one, anyway, with friends,
fun, all the good stuff--can make up for a lot. -- Eldon Kree, thinking he should
maybe put a little more effort into his own social life this week, because they need
constant maintenance, you know
How the HECK did the Khalhums Dwarf win that one? I had him desperate in the first
minute, and he dropped his morningstar! I had him desperate in the SECOND minute,
and all he could was parry ineffectively. I struck him a tremendous blow, even! Of
course, then I got kinda tired, and he went after me with his fists.... Why didn't
Arenamaster Kayr stop the fight after the first minute, anyway? By the gods, Ellirn
may be RIGHT about people being PAID OFF to let the fights go certain ways. --
Chawlie Istta
The Visiting Orc must've blown his budget and not been able to pay off anyone who
could help him out. Heck, he couldn't even get anyone to help him kill the
houseplants, and that's usually a popular job. -- Jilian Norman
If the Civilized Criminal thinks he can get AWAY with that stuff, he can think again.
I demand a recount, and with my own bean counters, too! He one-shotted me and I
nearly died! I know for sure that there was something underhanded about that. --
Hotl Muschel
Though I seldom agree with Hotl, I think in this case he is correct. The Civilized
Criminal is obviously using some kind of secret weapon, perhaps some insidious drug
on his quarterstaff. -- Ellirn Koul
P.S. And he is, of course, a werecat, and we know what THAT means.
