SPY REPORT
Hail ARADI! Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for your
deeds. And let's see, CANCHA fought VIRGINAL GIGOLO and gained 18 points and
contributed to UNNAMEABLES' 2-2-1. HIRE WATHA has lost to GAMMA TRIANGULI, falling 8
points, while helping make UNNAMEABLES a 2-2-1 turn. The attempts to dethrone the
Duelmaster have failed, and PLUM remains ARADI's top warrior for another turn. Can
someone confirm a rumor for me? I hear the top team makes their losing fighters do
dishes at The Victory Tavern until they win. Maybe?
The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more
could a warrior ask of life? Well, besides that. I also notice that the UNNAMEABLES
stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on ARADI, what are you afraid of?
And avoiding UNNAMEABLES more than any other team we find THE DEVILS PAIN. ARADI,
are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing?
The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed. Is it really true that ARADI has
more dishwashers per capita that fighters? Just thought I'd ask...
Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare
to fight bravely. It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your
swords sharp and your hammers heavy. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to
paper-- Alarond the Scribe

PAYMENTS BY CHECK AND MONEY ORDER -- CHANGE
Please note that because of new bank regulations, we can no longer accept any check or
money order drawn off a non-US bank, even if it is in US Funds. We were just informed
by our bank that the fee to process these checks is $40, which is crazy high!
Many apologies to our foreign players, but you will need to either get a check from a
US bank (Chase, Citigroup, etc.) or pay via credit card.
Armsilbar liked being Master of the Stronghold Academy, all except for one part.
He had to talk to Sheila Greywand at least once a week, usually oftener. She was
getting more erratic. More chaotic. That would be the effect of the Grey Wand. It
was a powerful chaotic artifact, and she kept it with her always. She had turned his
predecessor into a frog--or 164 frogs--and then summoned all the members of the
Academy to a frog-leg dinner. That had been, ah, bad. Yes, very bad.
But here he was entering her chambers. With, well, it couldn't be called GOOD
news. And the look she turned on him--she was in an orcish mood today, all scowling
black brows and bared fangs--that made him nervous. But some things had to be done.
He cleared his throat, which seemed to have a frog in it, and said, "It's about the
next tourney prize, Lady. I know it's more than two months away, but this isn't too
soon to start thinking of some new, exciting prize--"
"I have no intention of thinking about 'new, exciting prizes'," she snapped. Or
was that a snarl? "These managers are getting above themselves. They act like I
created the arena system for their amusement! There will be one standard prize for
all the tourneys. Just one."
He had a horrible vision of all the managers walking out in a mass. Perhaps it
wouldn't be that bad, but it wouldn't be good. And if he said the wrong thing, well,
the next frog-leg dinner might be him. "Er, ah, perhaps a specific prize for each
tourney--a spring prize, a summer prize, and so on? The managers expect--"
She exploded. A literal explosion, the force of the blast blew his hair off.
She said several things in an obsolete dialect of orcish. He stepped backward, then
again. The blast had blown the door open behind him. If he could make it out before
something else happened--
"Ribbit! Ribbit!"
