                             Notes from the arena champ.

     I advance to the defeat of the Veteran Mercenary, who must have something going
for him in order to have survived.  Am I giving these standbys a workout, or what?

                                      SPY REPORT

     Welcome ZENSU.  I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well.  Many the fights have I 
fought here.  The celebrations, the disappointments...  What's with RHOMBA?  She 
actually beat BEYOND THE PALE's CORMEK DEANE, and walked away with 18 more points 
from the fight.  Laughs were big at BEYOND THE PALE while they watched LINAEA DEANE 
clobber LOOT AND PLUDER.  He lost 14 points and got bruised from objects thrown from 
the stands.  ZENSU, set your sights on VENOMOUS CONCUBINE.  She'll be happy to 
entertain all requests after defeating CORBIE LEK.  CARINA LINZ looked pretty 
Duelmasterlike as she took ZENSU's top spot with 91 points.  Now, what will CORBIE 
LEK do?  Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!   
     No matter the time or place, men will always duel.   
     Warriors of ZENSU unite.  You have only your games to lose!  Many a warrior has 
met his fate in a hungover stupor.  You young rapscallions, take note!   
     Who knows what the future holds for a warrior.  More fights, there's no doubt.  
All work and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter.  Work and play no fighter dull Olaf.  
Olaffighterwork and no play.  Time for my medication, so I'll leave now.  Practice, 
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen
