"It's a treasure map," Joseph George explained helpfully. "X marks the spot."
"I can see what it is," Harby muttered. "And it's a snare and a delusion is
what it is. A treasure hidden in Sibikhas? And nobody who lives there has found
it?"
"Sibikhas is deserted," Anvil cut in.
"Just because the arena is closed doesn't mean the TOWN is closed," Harby
argued. "And there are some mighty tough nuts still hanging around there, so even if
there WAS a treasure, and you could find it, your chances of getting out of town with
both your life and the treasure are not good."
"You are such a spoil-sport," Redcap muttered, shaking his head sadly. "You
worry and fret because we're short on cash, and then Joseph finds this very possible
treasure map, and you don't want us to go looking?"
"I've been over the mountain a few times," the manager retorted. "I'm not so
naive any more as some people I might mention."
"What if we get some of the other gladiators to go along?" Joseph George
suggested. "That would spread the risk around more, and the expense of outfitting
the expedition, and--"
"And mean smaller shares for everyone who FINDS anything," Anvil cut in again.
"I don't like that idea."
"You never like ideas that mean sharing," the Silver Lady noted. "So what? And
also, who asked you? Joseph's the one who found the map, and if HE is willing to
share, then we share. I bet one of those Dealers might come along. There've got to
be other people here in Rodeki as bored and broke as we are."
"But are they as dumb and gullible?" Harby muttered. He sighed and looked at
his gladiators mournfully. "You're going to do this, aren't you? No matter what I
say."
Downer nodded. "Yeah, I think we are."
SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in RODEKI this turn, and let's start
with a look at some of the teams. And let's see, JADE fought DOWNER and gained 17
points and contributed to THE SOVEREIGN's 2-3-0. DOWNER has lost to JADE, falling 13
points, while helping make DELVERS a 0-5-0 turn. The attempts to dethrone the
Duelmaster have failed, and 21 remains RODEKI's top warrior for another turn. Can
someone confirm a rumor for me? I hear the top team makes their losing fighters do
dishes at The Welcome Wench until they win. Maybe?
I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher
friend of mine assures me this is true. The most challenged warrior this turn was
DELVERS' warrior ANVIL. More fighters challenged him than challenged the Duelmaster!
In a brave attempt, GO FISH from DEALER'S CHOICE challenged up 23 points to fight
LONG-N-SLIM from the THE SOVEREIGN stable. GO FISH perhaps got hers just desserts,
seeing as she was beat by LONG-N-SLIM and ended up with 46 recognition points.
We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and
shave it close? You gotta do what you gotta do. THE SOVEREIGN has sent IKE
NIGHTSHIELD to the Dark Arena. The deed is done. Lift the ale, and toast the
memory. A farewell moment, if you please, LORD MARCUS SKY of THE SOVEREIGN has been
sent to the Dark Arena, and was carried out on his shield. A brave warrior does not
carry a red shield, he has nothing to cover or hide when the fight is over. Consider
well.
Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the
sweetest. Always good to rest in RODEKI, but never good to wear out my welcome.
Look for me in future turns. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper--
