SPY REPORT
Greetings, Warriors of STORMCROWE. Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir to
give you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport. YUPPIE SHELTER had
cause to celebrate, after AIR BNB got 12 points by beating BLUE DRAGON BLADE.
NIGHTSHADE certainly had a baffled expression on its face, after losing to USKIABUR
and losing 8 points in the process! Those who hoped for a new Duelmaster were
disappointed by TOBIR BATTER, of SHEWISH BUFFET, who despite a 14-8-0 couldn't
overcome STORMCROWE's Number 1. So who's the team that's been walking into taverns
last week and ordering milk? Sounds like a PR stunt to me.
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Like the noble eagle soaring amongst the
mountaintops, so stand the warriors of YUPPIE SHELTER, alone and unchallenged. As a
woman of good breeding scorns the "warriors" of DARQUE FORCES, so did that sorry team
shy from YUPPIE SHELTER Everyone is famous for fifteen minutes, and MAR-A-LAGO is it
right now. Most challenged warrior. Isn't YUPPIE SHELTER proud!
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Ask not a spymaster
for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen into an unconscious
stupor.
Leave me now, you base fools! More important duties call me. Can anything
compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for STORMCROWE? On that giddy note I
take my leave-- Novgorodny Vir
