DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Sorry about no column last time, Clayborn, but we were very busy here. It was my
pleasure to teach you all those skills, but I won't be doing it again. Darned if I
know where the skills came from, long experience, maybe. 11-9-7-17-15-14-11 very
low/low longspear. Amazing. I would never have guessed.

SPY REPORT
Greetings, Warriors of ILLIS. Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir to give
you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport. Nothing is certain in
ILLIS, with changing loyalties, changing Duelmasters. Write this down: new top
team--X RATED KNIGHTS. Practice pays for SWORDGRAVE, who pummelled NEED A FIX, to
pocket 19 points. Win some, lose some. Speaking of which, SWORDGRAVE was winsome,
after beating NEED A FIX and seeing him lose 16 points. The arena was more crowded
than usual this time, as WITHDRAWAL faced ILLIS' Duelmaster. What can be a greater
victory? WITHDRAWAL has taken his place as the top, as ILLIS' new Duelmaster. So
who's the team that's been walking into taverns last week and ordering milk? Sounds
like a PR stunt to me.
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the lion, so
did the "warriors" in ILLIS avoid ISLANDERS. The warriors of ISLANDERS found their
efforts at combat frustrated as X RATED KNIGHTS apparently had more important things
to do than fight. If challenges were horses, ZARUKO could open up a fast food joint!
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Oh hard! that to
strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting!
All good things must come to an end. Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards
fat! Can anything compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for ILLIS? On that
giddy note I take my leave-- Novgorodny Vir
