DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Not a really great turn for us Doctors. Nevertheless, I won the fight that
mattered and stayed duelmaster for another round. Looks like the Middle Way has two
good contender for next round. I'll wait and see if I have to fight either of them.
For now, I shall just refer to them as Cybermen and try to hold my ground.
SPY REPORT
So why do I have this bag over my head? Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and
I'm going to give you a spy report!. Hey everybody, watch out for DAVID TENNANT, who
flew up 23 points in the rankings after mashing WALLIS YENT like a melon. Keep your
eye on this guy. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. WALLIS
YENT was beat by DAVID TENNANT and drops 13 points. Going for the gusto and coming
up with aught but bloody knuckles was MIDDLE WAY 16's VONNER WESS, who was turned
away from the Duelmastership by HUGH GRANT. Advice to bashers--never force anything,
just get a bigger halberd!
Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the JURINE arena. Well dang
howdy, but if challenges were votes, ZAKALUS ARDON would be president. Although it
may be a contest he doesn't want to win.
Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). Here's some advice: warriors with little
wit and will may encounter problems on the trail to the Isle.
Well, there's the manager of the JURINE giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that
'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some
tracks. And remember, you can pick your friends and you can pick your--(loud boos),
oh, you've heard that one already!-- The Unknown Spymaster
