                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, in SNOWBOUND a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor. 
So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news.  It seems the training can make the 
difference, as OPEN SESAME is pushed out of top team by DARQUE THEORY, who came from 
3rd with a 4-1-0 this turn.  And let's see, TRILL fought KARNHORN DESERTER and gained 
13 points and contributed to DARQUE THEORY's 4-1-0.  UNIQUE has lost to HELGA 
ICELAND, falling 6 points, while helping make BOOK OF THOMAS a 0-2-0 turn.  Defending 
hers title for another turn, HAILEY ICEWIND kept DARQUE THEORY's warrior, RHAPSODY, 
from claiming the throne.  Can someone confirm a rumor for me?  I hear the top team 
makes their losing fighters do dishes at The Victory Tavern until they win.  Maybe?   
     He who challenges well, fights well.  He who avoids without cause, shall lose 
for good reasons.  My mama told me that one.  OPEN SESAME has cause to stand tall, as 
they were SNOWBOUND's most avoided team.  A smart manager knows this is a team to 
beat.  And guess who avoided OPEN SESAME stable the most?  Believe it or not, it was 
DARQUE THEORY.  Anyone surprised?  Well, sports fans, take notice that OLIVER QUEEN 
from MIDDLE WAY 6 was SNOWBOUND's most challenged warrior this turn.   
     The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.  
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed.  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.  Well, I'm burning daylight here in SNOWBOUND and I've a long road ahead of 
me.  Happy Trails.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper-- Alarond the 
Scribe
