                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail ZENSU!  Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for your 
deeds.  And let's see, JON STONE fought FRATSFA SLAVE and gained 15 points and 
contributed to BEYOND THE PALE's 2-3-0.  JAKE BLACK has lost to MORDANT DESERTER, 
falling 4 points, while helping make BEYOND THE PALE a 2-3-0 turn.  Our Duelmaster 
has lost, folks, lost to CONVICTED ASSASSIN, BUT KORVIN ROSS is still the Duelmaster 
because he has the most recognition points!  Can someone confirm a rumor for me?  I 
hear the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at The Victory Tavern until 
they win.  Maybe?   
     The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more 
could a warrior ask of life?  Well, besides that.   
     A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once.  Wise men know this to 
be true.  We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their enemies.  
You know who you are; and it's considered rude.   
     Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe.  Dare 
to fight bravely.  It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your 
swords sharp and your hammers heavy.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to 
paper-- Alarond the Scribe

Two-three again.  Five fights total in the arena (they're laying off arena staff, one
of the armorers is trying to get a job as a persistent beggar), and we're in all of
them--with two fights (the wins, of course) against standbys.  Again I have three
spots on the front page, but at least this time I defeated (demolished, in fact!) my
standby. -- Korvin Ross, for the eight active gladiators of Zensu
