                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings warriors!  It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the 
clash and bustle of the weekly FRATSFA games.  BROTHER TUNGSTEN caught the eye of 
many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested DENTAL IMPLANT and was 
awarded 22 points in recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, BROTHER 
TUNGSTEN put down DENTAL IMPLANT, causing it to lose 19 points of recognition in the 
process.  This time victory fell to the grasp of the usurper.  All hail SOKAR, 
Duelmaster of FRATSFA!  Would you believe that over half of the old women in FRATSFA 
seem to feel that they could fight better than you gladiators?   
     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 FRATSFA these days is IRON CATHEDRAL.  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 IRON CATHEDRAL.  Indeed it was 
OTTO'S PARTS.   
     What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his 
foe's mortality?  This week marked the last days of NERUS who at 9-5-0 was dispatched 
to the Dark Arena by the command of INCARNATIONS' demanding management.  Was I the 
only one shocked to see the well respected fighter NERUS (9-5-0) appear on the sands 
of the Dark Arena?  He is now dead.  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 FRATSFA as ever I remembered them....and the fighters 
as ugly!  Don't let your reputation slip!  Sadly warriors, now longer can I keep thy 
company nor savor the ale of thy fine city.  Depart I must and soon!  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
