SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in FRATSFA this turn, and let's start
with a look at some of the teams. It seems the training can make the difference, as
FREEDOM FARCE is pushed out of top team by THE CHOSEN ONES, who came from 3rd with a
4-0-0 this turn. Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for there are sorrows to
drown for OTTO'S PARTS, whose 0-0-0 this turn dropped them by 4 into 6th. The
WEATHER guild has had a 4-1-0 turn and deserves to be watched in the future. You
never know where this kind of thing can lead. And let's see, ABU JR. fought KHALHUMS
DWARF and gained 16 points and contributed to THE CHOSEN ONES' 4-0-0. URSILA RILVAR
has lost to GRAFFITI, falling 12 points, while helping make MIDDLE WAY 8 a 2-1-0
turn. The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and SETI remains
FRATSFA's top warrior for another turn. By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I
saw last night, cramped under the table at The Victory Tavern?
He who challenges well, fights well. He who avoids without cause, shall lose
for good reasons. My mama told me that one. I also notice that the THE CHOSEN ONES
stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on FRATSFA, what are you afraid of?
And avoiding THE CHOSEN ONES more than any other team we find BASH BROS ROAD SIGN.
FRATSFA, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing? Well, sports fans,
take notice that TONIO SALAGAZA from MIDDLE WAY 8 was FRATSFA's most challenged
warrior this turn. SLEET of WEATHER had better have a good reason for challenging
down 8 points in a challenge which he won. I thought SLEET showed great skill and
promise when he defeated WRONGPLACEWRONGSIGN. All right, so I slept through it! Big
deal!
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. Always good to rest in FRATSFA, but never good to wear out my welcome.
Look for me in future turns. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper--
Alarond the Scribe
