SPY REPORT
Much has changed in MORYA since last I was here. Never fear, Olaf Modeen adapts
to many situations, as do all successful fighters. Bein' on top is great while it
lasts, THE RAMBLERS. But how many friends do you have now? Ya gotta be quick on yer
feet! Keep your elbow off the table! Thrust! Block out the pain! KARA NO TANI is
now ranked 7th with a 3-0-1 turn. Some people say I ramble too much, I don't say
anything relevant. I repeat myself. I ramble. Well THE ANIMANIACS moved up 2, to
6th. What's with FREEBOOTER? He actually beat FORCE OF FIVE's SABRETOOTH, and
walked away with 26 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at SEA DOGS while
they watched FREEBOOTER clobber SABRETOOTH. He lost 22 points and got bruised from
objects thrown from the stands. BIG LAKE PURE's hatred of PANDORA'S CARDS surfaced
again as ANGRY MOMENTUM challenged MORYA's top dog. I can barely restrain my
enthusiam for BIG LAKE PURE's outstanding member, Duelmaster ANGRY MOMENTUM.
Wouldn't it be nice to have live subjects to practice on? I hear some team is
looking into the uses of convicted prisoners.
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges... MORYA thinks FORCE OF
FIVE and their 80-69-6 is too much! If at first you don't succeed, give up...
Management must be dealin', as the boys at BASH BROS BODY ain't reelin'! FORCE OF
FIVE's mad! How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior,
SPRAIN! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you. JUGGERNAUT of
FORCE OF FIVE knows how to pick 'em. He challenged SPRAIN of BASH BROS BODY who is
up by 19. Now was this a wise move? JUGGERNAUT perhaps got his just desserts,
seeing as he was beat by SPRAIN and ended up with 66 recognition points.
A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing. Some fighters
don't accept this. The best do. We all knew it had to happen sooner or later. A
warrior can't stick around with a 3-6-1, and CHATTOKI easily took care of KERBASI.
ALARICK, with his forgettable 4-5-1, was put to death by SLAPPY SQUIRREL in a
forgettable match. THE RAMBLERS didn't seem to mind very much. CHATTOKI of KARA NO
TANI has spared KERBASI from the boredom of a warrior's retirement... But I doubt
THE RAMBLERS is grateful. Someone told KERBASI that KARA NO TANI never Bloodfeuded,
that he'd have an easy kill. Well, I'm sure whoever misled you is right sorry.
GUNTHER was plum wore out after GUILLOTINE TINA pounded 'im silly in a Bloodfeud.
THE RAMBLERS'll have to get a little better before going after GUILLOTINE TINA again!
Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover stupor. You young rapscallions, take
note!
Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here? Are
you as tired of reading this as I am of writing it? Actually, I guess I'm writing it
before you read it. Oh, well. I don't want to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen

PAYMENTS BY CHECK AND MONEY ORDER -- CHANGE
Please note that because of new bank regulations, we can no longer accept any check or
money order drawn off a non-US bank, even if it is in US Funds. We were just informed
by our bank that the fee to process these checks is $40, which is crazy high!
Many apologies to our foreign players, but you will need to either get a check from a
US bank (Chase, Citigroup, etc.) or pay via credit card.
Armsilbar liked being Master of the Stronghold Academy, all except for one part.
He had to talk to Sheila Greywand at least once a week, usually oftener. She was
getting more erratic. More chaotic. That would be the effect of the Grey Wand. It
was a powerful chaotic artifact, and she kept it with her always. She had turned his
predecessor into a frog--or 164 frogs--and then summoned all the members of the
Academy to a frog-leg dinner. That had been, ah, bad. Yes, very bad.
But here he was entering her chambers. With, well, it couldn't be called GOOD
news. And the look she turned on him--she was in an orcish mood today, all scowling
black brows and bared fangs--that made him nervous. But some things had to be done.
He cleared his throat, which seemed to have a frog in it, and said, "It's about the
next tourney prize, Lady. I know it's more than two months away, but this isn't too
soon to start thinking of some new, exciting prize--"
"I have no intention of thinking about 'new, exciting prizes'," she snapped. Or
was that a snarl? "These managers are getting above themselves. They act like I
created the arena system for their amusement! There will be one standard prize for
all the tourneys. Just one."
He had a horrible vision of all the managers walking out in a mass. Perhaps it
wouldn't be that bad, but it wouldn't be good. And if he said the wrong thing, well,
the next frog-leg dinner might be him. "Er, ah, perhaps a specific prize for each
tourney--a spring prize, a summer prize, and so on? The managers expect--"
She exploded. A literal explosion, the force of the blast blew his hair off.
She said several things in an obsolete dialect of orcish. He stepped backward, then
again. The blast had blown the door open behind him. If he could make it out before
something else happened--
"Ribbit! Ribbit!"
