                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.  
I doubt VALAMANTIS will ever be the same.  And let's see, BETA EQUULEI fought 
CONVICTED THIEF and gained 17 points and contributed to EQUULEUS' 2-3-0.  STRUCK has 
lost to LIV MOORE, falling 3 points, while helping make STRIKER FORCE a 3-1-0 turn.  
The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and STRIKER FARCE remains 
VALAMANTIS' top warrior for another turn.  Can someone confirm a rumor for me?  I 
hear the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at Doom's Dome until they 
win.  Maybe?   
     Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.' 
Inscrutable, but true.   
     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.  Is it really true that VALAMANTIS 
has more dishwashers per capita that fighters?  Just thought I'd ask...   
     Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe.  Dare 
to fight bravely.  It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your 
swords sharp and your hammers heavy.  Until you see my quill in VALAMANTIS again, 
farewell-- Alarond the Scribe
