The Mercenary declined to run the necessary errands, so I had to thwack him out of the 
way.  Errands don't wait.  Dancing lessons, band, car pool, groceries, they don't 
wait.

                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings warriors!  It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the 
clash and bustle of the weekly AMEN-TEI games.  NEVER caught the eye of many in the 
gladiatorial commission as it skillfully bested TOMAS KATT and was awarded 19 points 
in recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, NEVER put down TOMAS KATT, 
causing him to lose 9 points of recognition in the process.  As is fitting, the most 
sought after warrior on the challenge boards this week was none other than Duelmaster 
FAMILY TAXI herself.  Who here was not present for the title fight this week as NOT A 
CHANCE boldly challenged FAMILY TAXI in order to strive for the Duelmasters honors?  
The city has turned out in honor of NOT A CHANCE, for with its arena victory it may 
now lay claim to the highest position in the city!  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 AMEN-TEI "art" is a word that has 
long since passed from the language!  AMEN-TEI, city of gladiators!  Mighty among the 
names of thy guilds is WAYFARERS, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly 
duels.  Apparently the stalwarts of EXCLAMATION! are catching the bulk of jests down 
at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids.   
     Vendettas.  Bloodied blades and broken spears.  Indeed the city has seen more 
than its fair share of red in recent times.  Fate is a fickle mistress.  She showers 
the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious.  Remember this!   
     If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times 
already in AMEN-TEI.  Nice atmosphere you have here!  Sadly warriors, now longer can 
I keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city.  Depart I must and soon!  Till 
next we meet remember:  a fool flies into a rage quickly and often.  The wise are 
angered by the same thing only once.  Zontani Sharp Eyes
