Rocanis:
"No, you don't understand," Barudai the Scout said. "This is what I found out,
and no one takes time to LISTEN. Volundagh THOUGHT he had the Black Sword. But--"
Rain Caller, the old shaman of the southern Rirorni tribe of the Haimgedai,
stared. "He LOST it?"
The young scout shrugged. "No one knows exactly what happened, but the priest
of Mytori who was sent to get it...didn't come back with it."
"Did he come back at all?" Uncle Wolf asked.
"No. But the other priests don't think he took the Sword himself and, er, did
anything. They didn't seem to know whether he couldn't find it, or had it taken from
him after he did find it, or just, well, lost it himself."
"Hmm." Wolf half-shut his eyes, listening to things that only another shaman
could hear. "The Sword is awake, there is no question there."
The other shamans, Rain Caller and Windrider, nodded. "We hear it, too."
"But it is not yet...active. Has not chosen its Hand and gone to war,"
Windrider added. "There is time to find it and stop it."
"Find it, yes. We must, of course," Wolf agreed. "As to stopping it...how? We
can't destroy the thing, it's the sword of a god. It is beyond the strength of any
mortal."
"Bind it and hide it--" Rain Caller began.
"That is what was done before, according to the tradition I learned," Wolf said.
"It does not seem to have worked."
"It worked for a while, for three generations," the older shaman said. "That
may be all we can do, and it is better than doing nothing."
"Better than letting Bluesnake get hold of it," Windrider added.
After a moment of silent resistance, Wolf sighed and bowed his head. "This is
true," he admitted. "I could wish for a way to make a complete end to it, but there
is none that we could encompass." He turned to the scout. "What have you learned
that might suggest where to look for the sword?"
The young man shrugged, looking uncomfortable with what he would have to say.
"It has been said that it was found near Taegskel some years ago, and then lost
again, or taken into hiding."
The others all nodded. Taegskel was a den of thieves on the coast south of
Bonsur; there were many renegade and refugee Rirorni there. A few years ago, there
had been some very strange rumors about the place, but nothing obvious had come of
them, and the talk had died down.
"After that, last summer it would have been, talk started about Volundagh and
what a great leader he could be, how he could unite the tribes and sweep the
Alastarians away--"
"We tried that, fifteen years ago," Rain Caller said. "It did not prove so
easy."
"People want to believe it," Wolf said. "And the young men now, those who are
seeking to establish their names, they don't remember that time."
Barudai shrugged. He barely remembered it himself, he had been no more than
five summers when the War had ended. "The priests of Mytori said that a sign had
been given that Volundagh was blessed by their god--you heard?"
"It was what started our worries again," Rain Caller said. "We--I, at least,
hoped that the rumors of the Sword before were just talk."
"It has still been no more than talk," Barudai said. He sounded unconvinced, as
though he was only saying those words to be fair, not because he believed them.
"So you did not see the Black Sword," Wolf said, "and you believe that no one
else in Volundagh's camp has seen it?" When the scout nodded, he went on, "We must
find it before they do, and you may be sure they are looking."
"If we go rushing off, it will look suspicious. To Bluesnake if to not others.
We dare not raise questions," Rain Caller said.
"WE cannot go rushing off," Wolf said, baring his teeth in something too hard to
be a smile. "But...if a few gladiators were to go off, who would notice? Gladiators
do that. Especially those who have become Lord Protectors." He fixed his eyes on
Redfox, who had been silent up to now. "If you, and...two or three others, were to
go off, who would notice or care, eh?"
"I knew this was coming," Redfox muttered. He sighed. "Okay. I could probably
find some others. Shanks Pony here in Rocanis--he's too young to realize what he
would be getting into, or too reckless, but he's graduated from the arena and is
available. And I might find somebody else here, or in Trocar, or.... Hmm. Yeah, I
can find the men, young enough to be willing, old enough to be of some use. Where
would we go?"
"Start at Taegskel. You will have to track the sword by rumor, and by the signs
of its passage--by the men it has killed." Wolf glanced around and bared his teeth
again. "And take Ghost Dancer. He is no shaman yet, but he knows enough to be of
use."

DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Hiya, my comrades!
I'm not really in a rejoicing mood, since I'm leaving a team in shambles.
Anyway, I'm not here for long.... I kept my last bullet for Lady Consolacion. Good
luck to all.
Le Nettoye
SPY REPORT
Good day, in SLAUGHTER PRIEST MEM a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster
gets poor. So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news. Now keep the taverns
open late tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for NORTHERN BADLANDS, whose 0-0-0
this turn dropped them by 7 into 9th. THE PENTARCHY stable has parlayed this turn's
5-0-0 into a 6 space move up the rankings. This brings them up to 2nd place. Good
work, guys! And let's see, HARD TIMES fought MARIE ALICE and gained 23 points and
contributed to THE PENTARCHY's 5-0-0. INFERNO SERVENT has lost to FLO VALVE, falling
16 points, while helping make RIDERS OF AHRINGOL a 1-3-0 turn. This turn LE NETTOYE
challenged LADY CONSOLACION in what was SLAUGHTER PRIEST MEM's Title bout. Defending
his title for another turn, LE NETTOYE kept FILIPINA LADYZ's warrior, LADY
CONSOLACION, from claiming the throne. Tell me, is nothing sacred? I have heard
from unimpeachable sources that Arthur's Last Stand uses trolls in their stew. Talk
about gristle!
The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more
could a warrior ask of life? Well, besides that. I also notice that the DODGE
BULLETS stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on SLAUGHTER PRIEST MEM,
what are you afraid of? And avoiding DODGE BULLETS more than any other team we find
RIDERS OF AHRINGOL. SLAUGHTER PRIEST MEM, are we going to accept, or respect this
sort of thing? Well, sports fans, take notice that DAISY HAMMER from FLOWER HAMMERZ
was SLAUGHTER PRIEST MEM's most challenged warrior this turn. RAT of THE ANIMALS had
better have a good reason for challenging down 11 points in a challenge which he won.
I thought RAT showed great skill and promise when he won victory over LORD COWAN.
All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to
be true. You gotta do what you gotta do. FLOWER HAMMERZ has sent DAISY HAMMER to
the Dark Arena. The deed is done. Lift the ale, and toast the memory. We'd like to
remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their enemies. You know who you are;
and it's considered rude.
Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare
to fight bravely. Well, I'm burning daylight here in SLAUGHTER PRIEST MEM and I've a
long road ahead of me. Happy Trails. Until you see my quill in SLAUGHTER PRIEST MEM
again, farewell-- Alarond the Scribe

Lords of Death -- Welcome! As you may have noticed, our teams met thricely, and one
death. Know that the Sisters of Smash gladly await a feud. (It's only normal.) But
this team is only a training one, i.e.--all basher, and tend to fight every other
turn since I don't keep them on maintenance. Good luck. -- Blackstorm (S.O.S.)

The Animals and Lords of Death -- I'm new here too, but I've been around a long time.
I'm always willing to give advice if anyone needs it. I'm here learning about

weapon. -- Liam
Walking Thunder -- Hey, I'll be in Arkers (DM 8) in the next month or so. If you
need anything diplo me in North Fork (DM 47). My team there is Gothic Ministry (592)

just talk to me at work. -- Liam
Ol' Griz -- You have a twin brother in Arkers? -- Liam
Maximillian -- Hope my ally isn't getting under your skin? Wow I have never seen you

months. Got an invite from my teacher, so I'll see you there. -- Liam

that. My bad. -- Liam
Ed. -- Could we please have a list of Who's Who in town? -- Lord Xiang
