                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings warriors!  It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the 
clash and bustle of the weekly SNOWBOUND games.  AZOR AHAI caught the eye of many in 
the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested OLIVER QUEEN and was awarded 17 
points in recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, URSULINA TRELL put 
down THE MOUNTAIN, causing him to lose 10 points of recognition in the process.  The 
city has turned out in honor of BARKLEY, for with his arena victory he may now lay 
claim to the highest position in the city!  Heed this!  A seer has warned that if 
exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish!  Just remember...5 or 
7!   
     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 SNOWBOUND these days is BOOK OF THOMAS.  At least, most blades in 
town are looking to avoid them.  Methinks more than a few here could name the guild 
it was that spent the better part of last week avoiding BOOK OF THOMAS.  Indeed it 
was GOT BLOOD?.   
     Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser?   Warriors, may this counselor stand 
ready at your right hand forever!  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 SNOWBOUND 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 next we meet remember:  a fool flies into a rage quickly and often.  
The wise are angered by the same thing only once.  Zontani Sharp Eyes

We salute the tourney participants. -- we who walk the Middle Way

The Mountain -- My teammate Oliver had it right, you come down like one. Ouch. -- 
Newlin Ohm

Red Viper -- No, I don't got blood, I got ice water. -- Hailey Icewind

Valonqar -- Bold challenge, good fight, dammit. -- Helga Icewind

Frozen Ghost -- Over to you. -- Ursulina Trell

I reject the very IDEA of a 6'2" dwarf.  It's just some damned Shew with a beard. -- 
Oliver Queen

Newlin Ohm -- Queen Cersei informed me it is not polite to kick a man when he's down, 
so I slashed instead.  That's proper etiquette, right? -- The Mountain

Hailey Icewind -- You're uncommonly good for a Middle Wayer.  Are you taking private 
lessons on the sly? -- Red Viper

Helga Iceland -- A cold wind blows .. and all that poetic nonsense.  You hit back, and 
it HURT! I knew I couldn't let that happen again. -- Valonqar

Mortal Llama -- You ... are .. ridiculous. -- Halfman
