TEAM SPOTLIGHT
Neosha Palmer squeaked again, sounding like a startled cat. Pete Moss knew her
reactions didn't cause their problems, but those reactions drew his attention to each
new problem as it came up. He could do just fine without that. Still, he turned to
look. Someone, some person, not a monster, was coming. The boat was small, not much
more than a canoe, and the man in it clearly knew what he was doing. It was a
surprise to recognize Karogedh of Rithakar, the Veteran Mercenary. How did HE, a
Rirorni warrior, know how to paddle a canoe?
The man ran the canoe onto the shore, then got out and dragged it clear of the
water. "I came to get you," he said.
"Why?" Neosha asked.
"Why not? I didn't see anyone else doing anything useful, and if we have to
fight monsters, we'll need you two." He gestured at his canoe. "That'll get us back
to Valamantis if we hurry. Wait to long and it'll come apart in these waves. Did you
find the Silver Mage?"
"He's not here," Pete said.
"Damn. Gladiators would be good, but a mage would be better. Let's go."
DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
We couldn't have a mercenary for duelmaster, but I'd almost be willing to accept that
if he'd get us off the island.
-- Pete Moss
SPY REPORT
I was going on vacation, see? Surf, sun... But what do those bums say? "Hit
the road, Debby Tonte. VALAMANTIS needs a spyreport." Oh, well. Uncool, SPNSH
INQUISITION. I mean 0-0-0 is bad. Will they will be allowed to fight? I say use
'em for training practice! SERPENS like really fought hard to move up to 4th from
7th. Way to go! MVP award for SOULBANE? STEELE RISING's proud of her after beating
EMBEZZLING SCRIBE and getting 14 points. Talk about yer big time losers! CINDERMIND
got smashed by SILENT MELODY, and lost 11 points! And I was just getting used to the
ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!) Oh well, welcome GUDJA. Aren't SERPENS proud. (Oh,
my.) I hear the top team insists all their warriors get nine hours sleep. They want
photogenic fighters for PR photos.
Look, you guys stick to fighting, all right?
Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds. All VALAMANTIS ever talks about is fighting!
Me, I'm more laid back. Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like to
hear from you? Write! (Or have someone write for you.)
I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous Spyreporter? I gotta leave. VALAMANTIS is like such a dump, and you guys
smell too much! Its been really albendranius! Later, guys-- Debby Tonte
