                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail and well met warriors of VALAMANTIS!  Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp 
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  THREE RIVERS caught the eye of many 
in the gladiatorial commission as it skillfully bested DELTA EQUULEI and was awarded 
7 points in recognition.  Although CONVICTED ASSASSIN made a valiant effort, it did 
not suffice to topple the reign of victorious BETA EQUULEI.  Heed this!  A seer has 
warned that if exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish!  Just 
remember...5 or 7!   
     Many and various are the arts of battle.  In VALAMANTIS "art" is a word that has 
long since passed from the language!   
     What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his 
foe's mortality?  Some say a warrior is judged by the way he bears arms.  One thing 
is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt!   
     The girls are as pretty in VALAMANTIS as ever I remembered them....and the 
fighters as ugly!  Don't let your reputation slip!  More than a sharp eye must I 
keep, indeed a stout pair of legs must I keep as well!  The endless paths of Alastari 
await me!  Till we meet again, remember:  a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, 
and harms no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

                                     PERSONAL ADS

Epison Equulei -- That crimps my hope for a winning record.  Good fight, though. -- 
Louis Ohia

The "Fratsfa Slave" is pathetic.  And poorly matched against me.  What was the 
handicapper THINKING? -- Pamela Rose

Delta Equulei -- Well!  A good fight, from my perspective. -- Neosha Palmer

Standbys.  And he isn't even a real orc. -- Pete Moss

Laser Tag -- It's all well and good for those voices in the stands to make comments, 
but they don't have a clue, do they? -- Marina Quinn

Al 'Sinj -- So, what *about* dinner? -- Neosha Palmer

Beta Equulei -- I *am* an expert, and I could have handled the title quite well. -- 
Molgisse Redbeard, skilled concubine and cross-dresser

Pamela Rose -- A kind word would not be misplaced. -- Ariealliethin, Xochithlani 
enslaved and all but destroyed by evil Fratsfans

Pete Moss -- Your comments were not called for, as you could plainly see that I am not 
an orc. -- Eldarmis, standing in till someone captures another orc

Sikwit -- You Valamantins just don't *understand.*  I'm a conscientious objector. -- 
Merendies Skoridos of Mordant
P.S.  I suppose principles are thin on the ground in Valamantis?
