DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Swirvin' Irvin, good try but there are times when you should NOT swirv. A bit
of bad judgment there. Probably because you eat liver. Our cats won't touch it.
Fish, that's what they like. And one of them has a fondness for birds caught on the
wing. Ha! To see him coming across the yard, bird in mouth, walking that "jock
walk" that rolls the shoulders...! That cat fancies himself a Mighty Hunter. Of
course, he's young. Give him another ten years and he will be lying around all the
time, too.
Joubert Klee
SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, ARDIVENT? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens
before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Of course, we're all terribly impressed
to see MMMMBUHHH win a fight and gain 21 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, MMMMBUHHH beat
ARLENE ROSS and ARLENE ROSS lost 11 points. You're breakin' my heart. Looks like
ARDIVENT has some guts at least, JOUBERT KLEE the Duelmaster was this turn's
most-challenged warrior. CLARA ROSE challenged ARDIVENT's Duelmaster for a shot at
the throne. And if variety is the spice of life, ARDIVENT may be getting bland, as
JOUBERT KLEE stays top dog in the city. The Seaside Manor, humph! I've tasted
better ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From ARDIVENT's trash
dumps?
Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.
BARDS, I suppose you'll be glad to know you were this turn's most avoided team. Care
to know who is the most afraid of you? And who led the way in this mass act of
cowardice? Let's see, well, whatcha know? It was YOU DON'T SAY!. Ha ha ha ha!
Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for ARDIVENT's
morgue. More variety. Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through use.
Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.
What does the ARDIVENT arena have in common with the inns? It's just as
comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Well, I've had enough of this
drivel, and I'm sure you have too. Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather. Paste
this one in your scrapbooks, you'll need the kindling come this winter-- Snide
