DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
I was almost sorry to lose that--almost. This arena could use some promo, after
all. But what good would losing have done, eh?
Brendal
SPY REPORT
Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.
I doubt MURSKA will ever be the same. It seems the training can make the difference,
as SHINING PATH is pushed out of top team by ON THE ROCKS, who came from 2nd with a
2-3-0 this turn. URBAN JUNGLE stable has parlayed this turn's 4-1-0 into a 3 space
move up the rankings. This brings them up to 3rd place. Good work, guys! And let's
see, MODRANECT fought ST MAGDALENE and gained 11 points and contributed to URBAN
JUNGLE's 4-1-0. ST MAGDALENE has lost to MODRANECT, falling 9 points, while helping
make ON THE ROCKS a 2-3-0 turn. We should ask FARTIOR about the thrill of victory,
and what being the new Duelmaster does for a warrior, she's now the one to ask. Tell
me, is nothing sacred? I have heard from unimpeachable sources that The Victory
Tavern uses trolls in their stew. Talk about gristle!
The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more
could a warrior ask of life? Well, besides that. The most challenged warrior this
turn was ON THE ROCKS' warrior ST MAGDALENE. More fighters challenged her than
challenged the Duelmaster! In a fit of brilliance or of stupidity (hard to say
sometimes), MANDOLIN WIND challenged FEEL THE BUZZ today, facing a 35 difference in
recognition. And now nobody knows where FEEL THE BUZZ is right now, after giving
MANDOLIN WIND 25 points worth of recognition. As quiet chuckles rise behind me.
We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and
shave it close? Is it really true that MURSKA has more dishwashers per capita that
fighters? Just thought I'd ask...
I like this place, MURSKA, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.
Who could ask for more? 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
