                                      SPY REPORT

     Thankyouthankyou.  It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in MORYA. 
Hope you enjoy the show.  Oh, who am I kidding?  I already got paid!  Coming up with 
a solid 4-0-1 outing, GURL ORCS B TUFF has advanced 4 places in the rankings.  Hey 
everybody, watch out for HERRIA, who flew up 19 points in the rankings after mashing 
STURDEVANT like a melon.  Keep your eye on this guy.  Ya know, some days it doesn't 
pay to walk out on the sands.  PIANO RED was overcame by MOE TORR and drops 14 
points.  What does the Duelmaster and Piltdown Man have in common?  They are both the 
most challenged apes in human history!  Heyheyhey!  Drawing on all of hers experience 
as a 14-12-0 warrior, RUNE went for the Duelmastership against MARY CHRISMESS this 
week.  It's a proud day for the MAGICAL MADNESS stable, as their warrior, RUNE, 
ascended the Duelmaster's throne.  Can you believe they are paying me 10 gold to 
deliver this stuff?   
     Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the MORYA arena.  And hey, 
kiddies, those of you who didn't avoid LUNAE MILITES, please raise you hand.  Wow.  
Does MORYA really have that many liars?  And you guys like to boo me?  Well, unsling 
your rasberries, cause BASH BROS BODY beats feet every time LUNAE MILITES smiles at 
them.  Try farming, eh?  Was it guts or an overtaxed mental capacity that had AXLE 
FOLEY challenge up 34 points in the rankings to take on REPLACEMENT KNEE?  To the 
crowd's chants of 'Bo-zo bo-zo bo-zo', REPLACEMENT KNEE was taken out by the 
lower-ranked AXLE FOLEY.  (Maybe it's time to think Dark Arena?).  In a touching 
display by a 'touched' warrior, SPELLWEAVER went after FENNINGTONMOORE, who was 
higher by 23 points.  Well, when the dust settled, SPELLWEAVER won victory over 
FENNINGTONMOORE.   
     Death is kind of like a new puppy:  he's always around wanting to play.  (Ha 
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?).  Remember:  alliances are great, but try and 
take your ally in the arena with you and see what happens.   
     Well, there's the manager of the MORYA giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that 
'They're going to strangle you in the alley?).  Okay, so I may not be the world's 
best comedian, but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors.  Its been real, 
and its been fun, but it hasn't been real fun...-- The Unknown Spymaster
