In the mountains west of Fratsfa:
Lightning came down in a river of golden fire, hot and clean, and violet light
of the Folstrom's Chaos Gate turned black under the onslaught. But it didn't
shatter. Well, Fandil had hoped for the Gate to be destroyed, seared shut, but he
hadn't truly expected it to be so easy. Necessary, beyond necessary--the Folstrom
could not be allowed to return, but not easy. He squinted at the pillar of darkness
and contemplated his next move. To wait for the enemy to move and then counter, or
to attack? If it was just this one magician, he would wait, defend, allow his
opponent to tire... but if the Folstrom were involved, no, *because* the Folstrom
were involved, one look at that Chaos Gate was proof, he was not sure he dared play a
waiting game. On the other side of that Gate could be reinforcements beyond
counting, and he had only young Elosjon, competent but green still.
"Our strength is as the strength of ten, because our hearts are pure," he
muttered, but he was not convinced. Still, he would do what he could, and it would
be enough because it must. He tested his anchorage in the bedrock of the mountain;
it was secure. Indeed, he had a momentary image of the mountain as an old woman,
strong, resolute, standing beside him as an ally with spear and shield. Perhaps a
fancy, but an encouraging one.
He spared a glance for the storm that raged above the peak, not raining yet but
building an arsenal of lightning such as Fandil had never seen. The storm was still
his, or on his side, as the mountain was. With such allies, and Elosjon's young
courage was not negligible, he could--
Lightning descended again, and the spirit of the mountain rose to meet it, and
from that startling union there burst forth a dragon such as Fandil had never seen
before. Black as the stone, golden as the sky-fire, beautiful, powerful, and deadly.
And the hatred of dragons for the Folstrom was legendary.

SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of ZORPUNT! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team MEDAL OF HONOR Z3
was unseated this week as KRILL CAVALRY moved up from 3rd ranking to take the top
spot with a 3-2-0 record for the round. TWISTER caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as she skillfully bested VENOMOUS CONCUBINE and was awarded
12 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, EARTH QUAKE put
down COLIN POOLE, causing him to lose 6 points of recognition in the process.
Although TCHACK LOY made a valiant effort, it did not suffice to topple the reign of
victorious WILD FIRE. 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!
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city ZORPUNT. I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's
challenge seeking began. MEDAL OF HONOR Z3 is feared. This much I can say.
Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was that spent the better part
of last week avoiding MEDAL OF HONOR Z3. Indeed it was DISASTER.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! 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? Sadly warriors, now longer can I keep thy
company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till next we
meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different
story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
