DM 78 LIN TIRIAN (turn 454): DELNA BERIN of SAND DANCERS (Jorja, mgr.) SPY REPORT Hail ROCANIS! Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for your deeds. It seems the training can make the difference, as INCONSISTENT FURY is pushed out of top team by MIDDLE WAY 20, who came from 2nd with a 3-2-0 this turn. And let's see, POW! fought TIKI LA'BANE and gained 23 points and contributed to THEM's 2-1-0. TIKI LA'BANE has lost to POW!, falling 19 points, while helping make INCONSISTENT FURY a 1-4-0 turn. This turn MANZA WIGGLES Dark Arena Challenged MAINAKHA-TE MASTER in what was ROCANIS' Title bout. The crowds were amazed this turn, as MAINAKHA-TE MASTER killed the Duelmaster, MANZA WIGGLES, leaving INCONSISTENT FURY in mourning. This incredible death has allowed, I might add, RATHNOK MULROOT from INCONSISTENT FURY to ascend to the throne of Duelmaster, and I hear DARK ARENA is not happy. By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw last night, cramped under the table at The Grub & Rub Bar and Bistro? Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.' Inscrutable, but true. I also notice that the THEM stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on ROCANIS, what are you afraid of? And guess who avoided THEM stable the most? Believe it or not, it was INCONSISTENT FURY. Anyone surprised? The most challenged warrior this turn was INCONSISTENT FURY's warrior TAM TAM KA'BLAM. More fighters challenged him than challenged the Duelmaster! A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to be true. Kudos go out to KULGAN this turn, for revenging MEN OF STEEL's bloodfeud against INCONSISTENT FURY's warrior TAM TAM KA'BLAM. Well done. Is it really true that ROCANIS has more dishwashers per capita that fighters? Just thought I'd ask... I like this place, ROCANIS, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls. Who could ask for more? Always good to rest in ROCANIS, but never good to wear out my welcome. Look for me in future turns.

They don't teach worth spit, though. Must be due to us not being followers of Mytori, right? The Kung-Fu Master said I was slim, and then he lost to me. Great! Very discerning man. -- Leelayla Norin Rathnok Mulroot -- Your turn, I guess. -- Forlis Hooler Bam! -- That's what an artificial elevation in ranking will do to you.
