                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings warriors!  It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the 
clash and bustle of the weekly MORYA games.  In one of the week's more notable duels, 
COW put down DALE AUTRY, causing him to lose 15 points of recognition in the process. 
As is fitting, the most sought after warrior on the challenge boards this week was 
none other than Duelmaster MORYA CHAMPION itself.  Most watched of the fights this 
week, the spotlight was on ACNE as he bore arms against the challenge of reigning 
Duelmaster MORYA CHAMPION.  Although ACNE made a valiant effort, it did not suffice 
to topple the reign of victorious MORYA CHAMPION.  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 MORYA.  I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's 
challenge seeking began.  BOOK OF THOMAS 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 BOOK OF THOMAS.  Indeed it was BASH BROS BODY.  A match that raised a 
few eyebrows at the games this week, it seems that ANDERS SLOWEYE posted a challenge 
against the more highly recognized LUCKY LOOIE.  The results, you ask?  Well, the 
firebrand ANDERS SLOWEYE subdued LUCKY LOOIE.  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.  Fate is a fickle mistress.  She showers 
the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious.  Remember this!   
     If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times 
already in MORYA.  Nice atmosphere you have here!  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
