SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of XOCHITHLAN! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team WACKY was unseated
this week as KIWI CONNECTION moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot with a
2-3-1 record for the round. XYOKOR YAHL caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial
commission as he skillfully bested COLLINGWOOD and was awarded 18 points in
recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, XYOKOR YAHL put down
COLLINGWOOD, causing him to lose 13 points of recognition in the process. Although
DEELA ELLIS made a valiant effort, it did not suffice to topple the reign of
victorious D'URVILLE. Would you believe that over half of the old women in
XOCHITHLAN seem to feel that they could fight better than you gladiators?
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city XOCHITHLAN.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! I must report the passing of RENNOR SIMM, veteran
of many duels. 12-14-0 final record His was not illustrious--but death plays no
favorites. Cruelly, WHAKAPAPA of KIWI CONNECTION has slain the lesser ranked RENNOR
SIMM. Word already flies around town that THE MIDDLE WAY plans a bloodfeud! Dark
alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the arena there is only the
brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed a
stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me!
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
D'Urville -- There are times, and I'm sure you must feel it too, when the Small Arena
Syndrome as represented by the limited pool of opponents, is a pain in the rear and
wherever else. On the arm, in this case. -- Deela Ellis
Whakapapa -- How tedious. I suspect that all plays we could make with your name have
been exhausted twice around, and what else is there? I could sneer at your foreign
race, I suppose, comment that except for that beaky nose you look like a renegade
Rirorni. Does this turn your crank at all? It's hard to find a POINT in writing
personals sometimes. -- Rennor Simm
P.S. Besides the point that Jorja prods us with until we do it.
An effective point.
Collingwood -- Admit it, you're in league with my dentist! -- Xyokor Yahl
Who let the Rirorni Horseman bring his mount into the arena? Don't think *I* am
going to clean up after that thing! -- Saml Tyne
Arenamaster Xoron was bored. He wanted a change.
Why is a Rirorni Deserter bad? The guy just wants a house with solid walls and a
regular job, is this wrong? -- Ohtar Paes
Yes. Rirorni should live in tents. It was meant that they do so.
