                            "When a man's an empty kettle,

                             That I could be kinda human,
                                If I only had a heart.
                             I'd be tender, I'd be gentle
                                And awful sentimental
                                Regarding Love and Art
                             I'd be friends with sparrows
                          And the boy who shoots the arrows
                               If I only had a heart."

                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail and well met warriors of NORTH FORK!  Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp 
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  Former top team LAND OF OZ was 
unseated this week as BASH BROS PARK moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot 
with a 3-2-0 record for the round.  ROYAL FLUSH bore the brunt of major assault on 
their standings this week as they dropped to 26th position as the result of going 
1-4-0!  Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner!  Witness how 
this week BIG LAKE GROOVE went 2-3-0 to move up 8 in the rankings.  Did only my eyes 
note the 4-1-0 record which WRATHMEN 23-19 managed to post this round?  I don't doubt 
that such a record will draw challengers!  PILLAGE caught the eye of many in the 
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested DRUDGE and was awarded 21 points in 
recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, CAPTAIN KIRK put down ANTS, 
causing him to lose 16 points of recognition in the process.  Unwilling to wait upon 
the will of others, Duelmaster TIN WOODMAN challenged FAKE NEWS last week in a match 
to decide the fate of the throne.  The city has turned out in honor of FAKE NEWS, for 
with his arena victory he may now lay claim to the highest position in the city!  No 
confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has gained their position using 
magical aids.  Charmed weapons perhaps?   
     I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently 
transpired.  Indeed there is much I would report.  My inside sources tell me that the 
team to beat in NORTH FORK these days is LAND OF OZ.  At least, most blades in town 
are looking to avoid them.  Apparently the stalwarts of SATAN'S MINIONS are catching 
the bulk of jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids.  
Loose talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that 
many fighters are after STABBERS.  Watch your back!  For some warriors honor is not 
important--only empty victory.  See, gladiators, how ABSOLUM of PSY CORPS challenged 
down 27 points to READ THE ROOM.  Few would not have guessed the outcome of the bout 
as READ THE ROOM was overcame by ABSOLUM.  Is this what passes for courage in NORTH 
FORK?  As a gladiator gets older, the icy grip of fear lays hold of his heart.  True, 
FAST EEEK?  Who could miss your "brave" challenge of SLY?  All the city knows the 
duel went in favor of FAST EEEK.  I shall not fail to spread the word in other cities 
of this "mighty" victory.  UGLY ART must really be harboring a grudge against the 
SATAN'S MINIONS guild!  Merciless, 31 challenged down FOLLOWER points this week to 
duel with he.  The weight of the challenge fell hard upon FOLLOWER and predictably he 
was beat by UGLY ART.  This is how to arouse the anger of an entire guild!  For some 
warriors honor is not important--only empty victory.  See, gladiators, how JURINE 
CAKE of SHEWISH DINER challenged down 23 points to SPOOK SOLDIER.  Few would not have 
guessed the outcome of the bout as SPOOK SOLDIER was bested by JURINE CAKE.  Is this 
what passes for courage in NORTH FORK?  As a gladiator gets older, the icy grip of 
fear lays hold of his heart.  True, SQUINTER?  Who could miss your "brave" challenge 
of FAITH?  All the city knows the duel went in favor of SQUINTER.  I shall not fail 
to spread the word in other cities of this "mighty" victory.   
     Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser?   Warriors, may this counselor stand 
ready at your right hand forever!  My condolences to SATAN'S MINIONS for their loss 
of a very promising warrior, FLUNKY.  FLUNKY went to doom before the arms of PLAGUE 
FACE, a warrior of TEAM HAS NO NAME.  My sources at AFFLICTION stable claim they've 
never seen the guild bitterer.  This as a result of the untimely demise of INDYO.  
Beware ORIGINAL JOE!  Some say a warrior is judged by the way he bears arms.  One 
thing is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt!   
     The girls are as pretty in NORTH FORK as ever I remembered them....and the 
fighters as ugly!  Don't let your reputation slip!  More than a sharp eye must I 
keep, indeed a stout pair of legs must I keep as well!  The endless paths of Alastari 
await me!  Till we meet again, remember:  a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, 
and harms no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
