                             Notes from the arena champ.

Not your best day, Ms. Viktoria.  Maybe next time.

Spud

P.S.  Broadsword, low/very low?  Cheese.

                                      SPY REPORT

     Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in ARADI this turn, and let's start 
with a look at some of the teams.  And let's see, WOOFER fought MS. VIKTORIA and 
gained 26 points and contributed to RED DOG GANG's 1-4-0.  HUNTER has lost to 
LOCOMOTIVE BREATH, falling 12 points, while helping make RED DOG GANG a 1-4-0 turn.  
Our last turn's Duelmaster has lost, folks, lost to KUNG-FU MASTER, and SPUD has made 
the way for a new Duelmaster!  With SPUD clearing the throne, SATAN'S TULL of 
LOCOMOTIVE BREATH takes a proud seat as ARADI's new Duelmaster, by virtue of 
recognition points.  Tell me, is nothing sacred?  I have heard from unimpeachable 
sources that The Victory Tavern uses trolls in their stew.  Talk about gristle!   
     I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling.  A basher 
friend of mine assures me this is true.  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 SATAN'S TULL.  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.  A brave warrior does not carry a 
red shield, he has nothing to cover or hide when the fight is over.  Consider well.   
     I like this place, ARADI, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.  
Who could ask for more?  Always good to rest in ARADI, but never good to wear out my 
welcome.  Look for me in future turns.  Until you see my quill in ARADI again, 
farewell-- Alarond the Scribe

The Kung-Fu Master was feeling pushy.  Probably the weather. -- Hunter, not thrilled 
with the weather either
P.S.  Staying in bed for a few days suited me, though.

Kip Krule -- You're mean.  You kick a dog when he's down.  Kicking dogs at all is Bad. 
-- Woofer

Hack-n-Slash -- If you'd begged for mercy, I might not have bitten you. I MIGHT not. 
-- Mastiff

Why should I trust a constable who offers me a steak?  Not even a good steak, it was 
tough. -- Shorrow
