SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly ILLIS games. NIRVANA caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as it skillfully bested CAVE TROLL and was awarded 18 points
in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, AGAIN AND AGAIN put down
MOSCOW MULE, causing him to lose 12 points of recognition in the process. Most
watched of the fights this week, the spotlight was on STONE GOLEM as he bore arms
against the Dark Arena Challenge of reigning Duelmaster 12 STONES. The crowds were
amazed this turn, as STONE GOLEM killed the Duelmaster, 12 STONES, leaving CHAPEL
ROCK in mourning. With bloody hand PURPLE HAZE has ascended to the throne of
champions. Is it that one which is spoken of in the ancient texts? Informants
"close" to the city champion have told me that he never fights without pantyhose on
beneath his armor. Watch out!
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city ILLIS. I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's
challenge seeking began. TEABAG@CINCY 21.1 is feared. This much I can say.
Apparently the stalwarts of ISLE OF SKYE are catching the bulk of jests down at the
challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Loose talk at the arena has
reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many fighters are after IN
SECRET. Watch your back!
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers
the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed a
stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me!
Till next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a
different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
