SPY REPORT
The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon JURINE, for I,
Novgorodny Vir, have returned! MEDAL OF HONOR G10 had cause to celebrate, after
SERGEANT 4 got 30 points by beating ZEUS BERTRAM. Win some, lose some. Speaking of
which, MIRIAM NUT was winsome, after beating TREEBEARD and seeing it lose 9 points.
What can be a greater victory? SERGEANT 10 has taken his place as the top, as
JURINE's new Duelmaster. So who's the team that's been walking into taverns last
week and ordering milk? Sounds like a PR stunt to me.
And how sociable are JURINE's warriors? Come, let us see. Like a horde of
jackals fleeing from the lion, so did the "warriors" in JURINE avoid WARCKERS. As a
woman of good breeding scorns the "warriors" of LOTR, so did that sorry team shy from
WARCKERS If challenges were horses, MIRIAM NUT could open up a fast food joint!
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! ZEUS BERTRAM
of MIDDLE WAY 16, possessing a sorry record of 14-10-1, lost his last battle to
SERGEANT 4 of MEDAL OF HONOR G10. Young warriors, take note! Such is a failure's
lot! Ask not a spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have
fallen into an unconscious stupor.
Do not think spyreporting in JURINE is the highlight of my life. As the seasons
change, and the creatures of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave
this place. JURINE, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at
The Swinging Aardvark. 'Til next time-- Novgorodny Vir
