                                      SPY REPORT

     Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, 
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again!  FOOT OF PRIDE?  Who?  CHILDREN OF LLYR is the 
top team these days, buddies!  VAR'S FAV BARS had cause to celebrate, after THE 
CHROME HORSE got 11 points by beating DANNY BOY.  A certain someone should cut down 
on the drinking and practice more, after losing 2 points to THE CHROME HORSE.  
(Discrete enough, DANNY BOY?) What can be a greater victory?  SAVAGE BEATING has 
taken its place as the top, as MURSKA's new Duelmaster.  Word has it one team in 
MURSKA is using psychics to predict wins.  They lead a charmed life!   
     My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter. 
But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights!  To quell some nasty rumors, the guys 
in FOOT OF PRIDE are not carrying any incurable diseases.  No need to avoid 'em.  The 
warriors of FOOT OF PRIDE found their efforts at combat frustrated as VAR'S FAV BARS 
apparently had more important things to do than fight.   
     Ah, the duel!  The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd!  Ask not a 
spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen into an 
unconscious stupor.   
     All good things must come to an end.  My fingers tire and I fear my incessant 
prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable character.  Like a mixed 
metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid MURSKA farewell-- Novgorodny Vir

Only five died in duels today, so we're probably safe.

Our congratulations to Savage Beating.  You'll be right at home on the Isle, they do
that all the time. -- Jorja and the Children of Llyr

Three-two-one.  A countdown.  Rats.  And I lost to A Man who came along and tried to
grab my booty.  I'm trying to save it for a sailor, you know. -- Aimil
P.S.  But at least Palug punished that Beggar for being grabby.
