                                      SPY REPORT

     I can't believe the violence in MURSKA!  I still haven't told Mom I'm writing 
Spyreports.  She'd have a cow!  Well, here we go...  MVP award for ANGRY ANTHONY?  
WEIRD STUDENTS' proud of him after beating MARA KIERA and getting 14 points.  Talk 
about yer big time losers!  PADRIAG got smashed by CHALER, and lost 7 points!  This 
Duelmaster is like something else!  THAK BONESNAP stopped KATHANA dead in hers 
tracks!  I hear the top team insists all their warriors get nine hours sleep.  They 
want photogenic fighters for PR photos.   
     I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies.  Really, I just 
wing this stuff.  BATTLEAXE STAMPEDE was MURSKA's most avoided team.  Is there some 
award for that?  Hhmph!  What kind of warriors are HOUSE JHEREG?  BATTLEAXE STAMPEDE, 
an easy team to beat if I ever saw one, can't get them to accept an invitation!   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All MURSKA ever talks about is fighting!  Me, 
I'm more laid back.  How cruel!  FOOT OF PRIDE heartlessly sent his to DANNY BOY 
certain fate in the Dark Arena.  Is a 29-14-1 bad or something?  Hey, warriors get 
killed by other warriors, not by their manager sending them to the Dark Arena.  
What's wrong with DANNY BOY's 29-14-1, FOOT OF PRIDE?  Hey!  Quit laughing!  Just 
because TURNING BACK had 14-3-0 was no reason for FOOT OF PRIDE to send him to the 
Dark Arena!  Stop it!  Everyone has problems, but why did FOOT OF PRIDE send TURNING 
BACK to the Dark Arena?  He had a 14-3-0, and I thought he looked neat on the 
sands...  Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like to hear from you?  
Write!  (Or have someone write for you.)  
     I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid.  Who would've guessed I'd be 
a famous Spyreporter?  I gotta leave.  MURSKA is like such a dump, and you guys smell 
too much!  Its been really albendranius!  Later, guys-- Debby Tonte

Chaler and Loftis -- That's us, paragons of generosity. -- Padriag and Palug

Jenicor -- Our butts came off?  Will a drink HELP with that? -- Mara Kiera

Three-two, this works.  This is good.  We'll take it. -- Oisin

Vilmos -- You're one of those guys who sees every problem as a nail, aren't you?  I
get tired of being hammered like a nail. -- Little Tommy

Axazoh -- Shining too brightly.  I couldn't really see you. -- Oisin

Chaler -- You're really good at this "learning skills" thing, aren't you?  But so
long as you're willing to lose to get 'em, I don't mind. -- Palug

Ah, the Ambitious Guard.  Always a pleasure to put him on his back. -- Padriag

Angry Anthony -- Tish.  A little losing at the beginning of your career is nothing to
get worked up about! -- Mara Kiera

I hoped to have a little bit of a spotlight for this arena this turn, but the odds
are dropping fast.  Next time, I'll START the day with this arena instead of coming
to it last and tired. -- Jorja
