SPY REPORT
Good day, in DAL SHANG a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor.
So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news. It seems the training can make the
difference, as SAND DANCERS is pushed out of top team by POSSE, who came from 2nd
with a 3-2-0 this turn. And let's see, VESEMIR fought DENGAN THE TRADER and gained
19 points and contributed to WITCHERS' 1-2-0. KO THE AVERAGE has lost to MASTER OF
THE EDGE, falling 12 points, while helping make SAND DANCERS a 2-3-0 turn. Due to
his absence and inability to defend the throne, APACHE FOG has lost the title of
Duelmaster. And not without some honor, LADY LUCK now claims the title and throne of
Duelmaster of DAL SHANG. Tell me, is nothing sacred? I have heard from
unimpeachable sources that The Blazing Unicorn uses trolls in their stew. Talk about
gristle!
He who challenges well, fights well. He who avoids without cause, shall lose
for good reasons. My mama told me that one.
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. A brave warrior does not carry a
red shield, he has nothing to cover or hide when the fight is over. Consider well.
Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the
sweetest. Always good to rest in DAL SHANG, but never good to wear out my welcome.
Look for me in future turns. Until you see my quill in DAL SHANG again, farewell--
Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
Three-two, with Norben definitely the Lesser, losing to a standby. The shame! We'll
have to beat him up in an alley to impress him with the magnitude of his error. He
may go on losing ignominiously, but at least he'll know how we feel about it. -- An
