"I can't BELIEVE I agreed to do this," Bali Darras muttered, hunching into her
rain cape. She held the lantern closer to the ground, trying to find the path.
"Of course you agreed, what else could you have done? We must show our proper
respect for our deceased teammate." Erfin Goram patted the jar he carried under his
own cape. "Her seeds must be sown in the proper quarter of Old Valamantis, and under
the full moon, in the rain, is the ideal time and condition for this."
"Seeds?"
"Ah...ashes," Erfin said quickly. "I meant ashes."
Bali stopped and turned, forcing Erfin to stop or run into her. "No, you meant
what you said. Seeds. Is there something I should know about you elves?"
"No! There isn't anything you should know, because you should NOT know, I mean,
there isn't anything TO know--"
Bali stared toward Erfin, but even at no more than arm's length, she couldn't
see him. Full moon be damned, this was a very dark night. And cold, and wet, and
windy, and unpleasant in so many ways she couldn't even count them. "We cremated
Chia, according to the terms of her contract, and you collected her 'ashes' into an
urn and said they had to be 'scattered' in Old Valamantis, at night. I agreed,
because that was what Chia said she wanted, and she was my friend. But NOBODY," Bali
realized her voice was rising to a shriek and didn't care, "said anything about SEEDS
being SOWN in Old Valamantis, and I WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. Okay?"
"Bali, we don't tell humans that. And," Erfin came close enough to push her
gently forward, "we don't stand around in Old Valamantis and shout it for any ghost
or grave robber to hear, either."
Bali resisted the push, and Erfin could feel her concentrating on him, feel her
formidable charisma reaching out to compel him to tell. "It isn't something I want
to talk about here, Bali," he said, sighing. "But once we get this done, and we're
inside by a fire, I'll tell you. Strictly confidential, and if anyone finds out,
I'll deny it, but for now, Bali, please, let's just get this done."
SPY REPORT
If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of
VALAMANTIS brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. If this keeps up, SINFUL SISTER,
you'll have to shine swords instead of use them. A drop of 5 in the rankings?
MASTERS OF RAGE turned their 3-0-0 turn into a 3rd place rank in the listings this
turn. Any better than this, and you get put on hit lists. Of course, we're all
terribly impressed to see BR BADDAS win a fight and gain 11 points, terribly. Tsk,
tsk, THE GRIFFIN beat A.T. JR and A.T. JR lost 8 points. You're breakin' my heart.
DARTH TIMMY challenged T.R. for VALAMANTIS' Title this turn, and guess what happened?
And if variety is the spice of life, VALAMANTIS may be getting bland, as DARTH TIMMY
stays top dog in the city. Drake's Lodge, humph! I've tasted better ale at
mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From VALAMANTIS' trash dumps?
He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward. RANDOM
SITH, I suppose you'll be glad to know you were this turn's most avoided team. Care
to know who is the most afraid of you? And it looks like RIO VISTANS avoided them
the most this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me. Hmph. Ooh, I'm
frightfully impressed, T.R. was this turn's most challenged warrior. Watch that ego
swell, sports fans. GOOD BEAR was challenged by one of EVIL DEATH DUDES' warriors
this turn, with EVIL WEEVIL having a lead of 22 points going into the fight.
Question now is, will VALAMANTIS accept this sort of tacky behavior? EVIL WEEVIL
beating GOOD BEAR. The insult, the....yech! Now here's guts and stupidity all
rolled into one, BLUE challenged up 26 to take on MARTAVIUS of MASTERS OF RAGE. But
here's a pretty tale--BLUE did lose the fight, but gained 3 worth of recognition.
Some long shots can pay off, I guess.
Death and Taxes. The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience. Let's
see if anyone's dead or dying. Ya gotta go sometime, and GOOD BEAR's time was this
time. Hmmm, not a bad fighter, had he lived... (what? me pity?). Titanium shields
and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing these kinds of weapons?
I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for
an epee. Forgive me for writing with a dagger. Just wait 'till next time I show up
here, I won't be so nice! So nyaaah! I see the crowds are getting restless, I must
leave now-- Snide Clemens

PERSONAL ADS
Good luck to everyone at the face! -- AAB
Death Wish -- When I first saw the posting, I thought your name was Darth Wish, but I
guess you're not one of those guys after all. Just as well. Not that I think a
death wish is a good thing, either, mind you. MY wish is to remain alive, the whole
time. And as long a time as possible. So, if we meet again on the sands, try NOT to
kill me, okay? I'd take that as a hostile act, well, I'd have to, wouldn't I? And
you don't want to see me feeling hostile in return. Heck, I don't want to see me
that way, either. It might be, ah, rather sad. -- Erfin Goram
T.R. -- WELL! See if I ever teach YOU five skills in one fight again. Huh, some
people just have NO gratitude. -- Ghost of C.E. (Chia Edel to the long-winded)
Darth Sidius -- So long as you're not IN-sidius, I'm easy with it. -- Bali Darras
Darth Scion -- Ah, ever one to take an advantage, aren't you? While the
Arenamistress and I stood there trying to figure out how to say your name, you upped
and attacked. (sigh) I hate it when that happens. I probably shouldn't have been a
gladiator, but it's too late to change my mind now. -- Gabrella Imbro
The Smiter -- (mournfully) You mean...your name wasn't just a figure of speech? You
actually go out there and DO the smiting? Cheese. I never expected that. -- Fronk
Hurrace
P. -- Okay. -- N., mgr. M.W.
Y.O.M.O.D. -- Good, I'll expect G.W.C. at the International Club Canniballe at six
tonight (to allow time for preparation and cooking). -- Bali Darras

Let it be known that Buddy Lee is no longer a member of The Company of Brothers,
T.C.B. I have resigned as of 10-23-06. Thank you.
