                                      SPY REPORT

     Thankyouthankyou.  It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in ARADI. 
Hope you enjoy the show.  Oh, who am I kidding?  I already got paid!  Hey everybody, 
watch out for POTENT PERSIMMON, who flew up 14 points in the rankings after mashing 
HIRE WATHA like a melon.  Keep your eye on this beast.  Ya know, some days it doesn't 
pay to walk out on the sands.  HIRE WATHA was subdued by POTENT PERSIMMON and drops 
10 points.  Going for the gusto and coming up with aught but bloody knuckles was 
UNNAMEABLES' SHUSH, who was turned away from the Duelmastership by STAR.  An apple a 
day keeps the doctor away, but an onion a day keeps T.P.s at bay.   
     Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the ARADI arena.   
     Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day 
drinking to their memory.  Better tanked than dead!  This week 21-13-2 PLUM was sent 
to the Dark Arena.  I know a lot of fighters with similar records who might take 
notice of this.  There's got to be more reason for the sending of PLUM to the Dark 
Arena than his record (21-13-2).  Anybody got any ideas FRUIT OF THE LOOM?  Here's 
some advice:  warriors with little wit and will may encounter problems on the trail 
to the Isle.   
     Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in ARADI have no 
sense of humor.  Or maybe that they were senseless.  C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some 
tracks.  Its been real, and its been fun, but it hasn't been real fun...-- The 
Unknown Spymaster

I am undertaking a fiction-writing project on the Patreon website, under my own name
of Judith Solberg.  It isn't the kind of story I might put in the newsletter, but I
think some of you might enjoy it.  I don't know how much you can see if you just
cruise by, but they tell me it's up and open. -- Jorja
