SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of MURSKA! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes,
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team CHILDREN OF LLYR was
unseated this week as FOOT OF PRIDE moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot
with a 2-3-1 record for the round. My praise to SEA DOGS for their 3-1-0 week this
time out. Indeed, it was a skillfully fought round deserving of notice! NO TURN
caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested
PRIVATEER and was awarded 41 points in recognition. In one of the week's more
notable duels, FREEBOOTER put down AIMIL, causing her to lose 16 points of
recognition in the process. Although SAVAGE BEATING made a valiant effort, it did
not suffice to topple the reign of victorious LORD'S PRAYER. Informants "close" to
the city champion have told me that he never fights without pantyhose on beneath his
armor. Watch out!
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city MURSKA. I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's
challenge seeking began. BATTLEAXE STAMPEDE is feared. This much I can say.
Apparently the stalwarts of SEA DOGS are catching the bulk of jests down at the
challenging board for their large share of the avoids.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! The warrior's path is harsh. For mediocrity there
is but one reward--death. This past week PRIVATEER, at 16-11-0, departed MURSKA
forever. This week in mortal passion NO TURN let the blood of PRIVATEER, sending one
more soul into the void. Retribution by SEA DOGS seems inevitable! Some say a
warrior is judged by the way he bears arms. One thing is sure, better a dagger in
hand then a sword on the belt!
The girls are as pretty in MURSKA as ever I remembered them....and the fighters
as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! Sadly warriors, now longer can I keep thy
company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till we meet
again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no one; a
lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Two-three today, I knew last turn was a fluke. This turm... cut and dried. I'm glad
it's dried, don't want to track stuff into the house! Snow and ice on the tree limbs
outside the window, very decorative. The ice is glittering. But there's so MUCH ice
that I fear for the integrity of the limbs in question. They're drooping. -- Finn

P.S. But it's a SPRING snow, and maybe even Last Frost! Life is good.
Probably not the Last Frost.
