                             Notes from the arena champ.

Time for me to disappear over the horizon!  It has been a glorious run in Morya, but 
all good things must come to an end.  I leave for Crysalis and retirement from regular 
fighting.  Not sure what retired warriors do on the Isle, but I am sure Omnimancer is 
not lacking in tasks for me.  I'm a bit wary because immortality sounds like a long 
time. 

I leave Morya as a 15-9-8-17-17-5-13 WS.  The Commission believes that I like a MO/LO 
fighting rhythm, which is the most WS faves you can get in my opinion.  They also have 
tagged me as a BS fave who likes to learn INI.  Once again, those sound so Wall of 
Steel-y.  I was convinced it was BA and ATT skills.  Oh well, I reached ADM, which was 
the goal when I started in this arena so many moons ago.

I have challenged the only active Challenger Champion, Hal O'Gen.  I am a little 
bummed that Fatigue and I cannot settle our 2-2 tie.  I would offer to fix that in 
ADM, but let's be honest, at that point he is going to win 9/10 of those fights, more 
likely 10/10.

                                          -- Lord Protector Blue Moon

                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings, Warriors of MORYA.  Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir to give 
you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport.  What's a move up by 4 
you ask?  (alright, maybe you didn't ask)  Cause for celebration, according to 
DIZNEE.  Practice pays for MALEFICENT, who pummelled STORM WARNING, to pocket 20 
points.  A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after 
losing 12 points to CAL LIPPER.  (Discrete enough, SHERE KHAN?) BLUE MOON 
successfully staved off a grab for the roses by HAL O'GEN of OTTO'S MECHANICS.  Does 
MORYA have no one talented enough to dethrone him?  Word has it one team in MORYA is 
using psychics to predict wins.  They lead a charmed life!   
     A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn?  And do not the 
little birds cry out?'  Any ideas?  To quell some nasty rumors, the guys in DIZNEE 
are not carrying any incurable diseases.  No need to avoid 'em.  As a woman of good 
breeding scorns the "warriors" of THE ANIMANIACS, so did that sorry team shy from 
DIZNEE If challenges were horses, MYRON MEI could open up a fast food joint!  ENGVALL 
challenged STRETCH MARKS!  Who says COMIC RELIEF are just a bunch of wimps!  ENGVALL 
of COMIC RELIEF kept his wits as he lost to STRETCH MARKS.   
     The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on...  Forgive and forget is 
not my motto.  Take heed, BIG LAKE PURE, as RATUNDO's death remains unavenged.  Ask 
not a spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen into 
an unconscious stupor.   
     All good things must come to an end.  My fingers tire and I fear my incessant 
prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable character.  Can anything 
compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for MORYA?  On that giddy note I take 
my leave-- Novgorodny Vir

Anders Sloweye -- That may have been the only fight where I was able to hit where I 
was aiming.  Well, at least 75% of the time. -- Blue Moon

Lately Stone -- My apologies, dear lady!  My manager mistakenly told me my target 
before the fight began, and I believe he thought you belonged to another.  We do not 
make a habit of aiming for vitals against your guild. -- Harvest Moon
