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 URBAN JUNGLE is pushed out of top team by SEA DOGS, who came from 3rd with a 3-1-0
this turn. On their very first turn, BAD GUYS had a 4-1-0, and with this kind of
luck or skill, should do well. Welcome to MURSKA. And let's see, TAMRA KAI fought
VETERAN MERCENARY and gained 20 points and contributed to CHILDREN OF LLYR's 3-2-0.
BRENDAL has lost to MANDOLIN WIND, falling 12 points, while helping make CHILDREN OF
LLYR a 3-2-0 turn. This turn VEXED VIKING challenged FEEL THE BUZZ in what was
MURSKA's Title bout. We should ask FEEL THE BUZZ about the thrill of victory, and
what being the new Duelmaster does for a warrior, he's now the one to ask. By the
way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw last night, cramped under the table at The
Howling Wolf?
I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher
friend of mine assures me this is true. I also notice that the PHILANTHROPISTS
stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on MURSKA, what are you afraid of?
And guess who avoided PHILANTHROPISTS stable the most? Believe it or not, it was ON
THE ROCKS. Anyone surprised? Well, sports fans, take notice that EVINDAL from
CHILDREN OF LLYR was MURSKA's most challenged warrior this turn.
A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to
be true. A brave warrior does not carry a red shield, he has nothing to cover or
hide when the fight is over. Consider well.
Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the
sweetest. 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
