                                      SPY REPORT

     Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in MURSKA this turn, and let's start 
with a look at some of the teams.  This turn ALE'CHAI TALLSKY challenged TOURNEY SCUM 
in what was MURSKA's Title bout.  Defending its title for another turn, ALE'CHAI 
TALLSKY kept BUSY, BUSYTOWN's warrior, TOURNEY SCUM, from claiming the throne.  Can 
someone confirm a rumor for me?  I hear the top team makes their losing fighters do 
dishes at The Dragon's Hangover until they win.  Maybe?   
     He who challenges well, fights well.  He who avoids without cause, shall lose 
for good reasons.  My mama told me that one.  I also notice that the LOST CAUSE 
stable was the most avoided team this turn.  Come on MURSKA, what are you afraid of?  
And avoiding LOST CAUSE more than any other team we find PHILANTHROPISTS.  MURSKA, 
are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing?  The most challenged warrior 
this turn was LOST CAUSE's warrior CLYDE.  More fighters challenged him than 
challenged the Duelmaster!  In a brave attempt, PACIFIST from PHILANTHROPISTS 
challenged up 19 points to fight BRENNA from the CHILDREN OF LLYR stable.  PACIFIST 
perhaps got his just desserts, seeing as he won victory over BRENNA and ended up with 
76 recognition points.   
     We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and 
shave it close?  The Dragon's Hangover declares a free round for UGLY GENTLEMAN and 
all of PHILANTHROPISTS, for having revenged LOST CAUSE's CLYDE for killing one of 
their comrades.  Is it really true that MURSKA has more dishwashers per capita that 
fighters?  Just thought I'd ask...   
     Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe.  Dare 
to fight bravely.  It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your 
swords sharp and your hammers heavy.  Until you see my quill in MURSKA again, 
farewell-- Alarond the Scribe
