                                      SPY REPORT

     If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of 
JHANS brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too.  Of course, we're all terribly 
impressed to see TRISH win a fight and gain 21 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, TRISH 
beat FOUL NAVIGATOR and FOUL NAVIGATOR lost 14 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  
And it's out with the old, in with the new, as PEG LEG takes the Title and last 
week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster.  Heh, heh.  I'm not in a very good mood 
today, but why am I telling you this?  You want to know what's new, don't you, JHANS? 
     My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start 
talking.' I loved that woman.  HELL'S KITCHEN, I suppose you'll be glad to know you 
were this turn's most avoided team.  Care to know who is the most afraid of you?  And 
who led the way in this mass act of cowardice?  Let's see, well, whatcha know?  It 
was ENGINES 'O' DEATH.  Ha ha ha ha!   
     Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and 
gone, and get to see if their team cared.  Now hey, I like to see a death as much as 
the next guy, but hey BABES, whyja send ROBIN to the Dark Arena, look at hers record, 
huh?  Whoa!  I'll even buy MAN OVERBOARD 2 a drink tonight!  Anyone who can come back 
from the Dark Arena, I want to be on his good side!  Honor is like a chainmail shirt, 
it only shines through use.  Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on 
this one.   
     I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for 
an epee.  Forgive me for writing with a dagger.  Well, I've had enough of this 
drivel, and I'm sure you have too.  Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather.  I see 
the crowds are getting restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens

The Mad Cyclone -- Of course it was.  I intended it. -- Ripples Dorrigan,
Arenamistress

The Limiter -- Ah, if only I could!  I wouldn't even care what the "Orient" held in
store for me.  I suppose it COULD be worse, but not easily.  They make me clean the
locker rooms after the fights, you know. -- one downtrodden Fratsfa Slave

Modern Myth -- Ambitious for different things.  The arena is merely a stepping stone,
a "day job," as it were, while I prepare my magnum opus.  Besides, all great artists
must suffer.  It says so in the manual. -- a Guard with Ambitions of Other Kinds

Engines of Death -- And we thank you for this acknowledgement of our respective
personhoods. -- Ripples Dorrigan, speaking for the standbys

Modern Myth -- I hope you were PAYING ATTENTION during that fight.  We of the
Chardinee Society of Alastari do not object to teaching young gladiators, but we DO
object to fighting young gladiators who THROW AWAY the chance to learn from us. -- M.
