Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team MEN OF STEEL was unseated this week as TREXTRAS moved up from 4th ranking to take the top spot with a 4-1-0 record for the round. Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner! Witness how this week TREXTRAS went 4-1-0 to move up 3 in the rankings. SUPERMAX caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested LIMS KRIGMA and was awarded 21 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, SUPERMAX put down LIMS KRIGMA, causing him to lose 12 points of recognition in the process. The city has turned out in honor of LOCKLEAR, for with his arena victory he may now lay claim to the highest position in the city! Would you believe that over half of the old women in ROCANIS 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. I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's challenge seeking began. TREXTRAS is feared. This much I can say. Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was that spent the better part of last week avoiding TREXTRAS. Indeed it was KNIGHTS OF NI. Loose talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many fighters are after REGER. Watch your back! A match that raised a few eyebrows at the games this week, it seems that SIR GAWAINE posted a challenge against the more highly recognized VISA. The results, you ask? Well, the firebrand SIR GAWAINE bested VISA. Remember warriors, this is the discipline of steel. Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more than its fair share of red in recent times. My sources at KNIGHTS OF NI stable claim they've never seen the guild bitterer. This as a result of the untimely demise of SIR BOORS. Beware AMEX! Must the anguished spirit of BLACK KNIGHT toss forever in the grave unrevenged? Against the code, ROO has escaped his deed unpunished by KNIGHTS OF NI! SIR BOORS must hold silent, for this week he was humbled in the arena by a successful Bloodfeud won by AMEX of CREDIT. Hail AMEX for thy victory! Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always! If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times already in ROCANIS. Nice atmosphere you have here! 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.
