                                      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 THAT SMELL is pushed out of top team by SAND DANCERS, who came from 
3rd with a 4-1-0 this turn.  And let's see, ORANGE PEEL fought LIRI TYL AI and gained 
25 points and contributed to THAT SMELL's 1-2-0.  SHRAAAMP has lost to KURR LI, 
falling 14 points, while helping make THAT SMELL a 1-2-0 turn.  And all eyes were on 
SIOUX this turn as he ascended to the throne of Duelmaster.  DAL SHANG has a new 
victor!  Can someone confirm a rumor for me?  I hear the top team makes their losing 
fighters do dishes at The Blazing Unicorn until they win.  Maybe?   
     I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling.  A basher 
friend of mine assures me this is 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 DAL SHANG 
has more dishwashers per capita that fighters?  Just thought I'd ask...   
     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 the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper-- 
Alarond the Scribe
