                             Notes from the arena champ.

     This is me, The Duelmaster. This is whom I am named after. This is The Consortium 
Boss's home town, where he lived from 1945 through 1972........
     Cannelton is a city in Troy Township, Perry County, in the U.S. state of Indiana, 
along the Ohio River. The population was 1,563 at the 2010 census. Cannelton, which 
was the smallest incorporated city in the state until 2010, was formerly the county 
seat of Perry County until the seat was relocated to Tell City.
     The name Cannelton was adopted in 1844, and is derived from the cannel coal that 
was once mined in the area. A post office has been in operation at Cannelton since 
1844.
     The Cannelton Cotton Mill, Cannelton Historic District, and St. Luke's Episcopal 
Church are listed on the National Register of Historic Places]

                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail DAL SHANG!  Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for 
your deeds.  And let's see, HARRISON FORD fought MIGHTY MITE and gained 25 points and 
contributed to CAR STARS' 1-0-0.  CRAFTY has lost to TELL CITY, falling 15 points, 
while helping make WISE GUYS a 0-1-0 turn.  Defending its title for another turn, 
CANNELTON kept SAND DANCERS' warrior, PEARL JOSEPHINA, from claiming the throne.  By 
the way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw last night, cramped under the table at 
The Blazing Unicorn?   
     Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.' 
Inscrutable, but true.  I also notice that the POSSE stable was the most avoided team 
this turn.  Come on DAL SHANG, what are you afraid of?  And avoiding POSSE more than 
any other team we find PLACES.  DAL SHANG, are we going to accept, or respect this 
sort of thing?  The most challenged warrior this turn was SAND DANCERS' warrior 
MIGHTY MITE.  More fighters challenged him than challenged the Duelmaster!   
     We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and 
shave it close?  We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their 
enemies.  You know who you are; and it's considered rude.   
     I like this place, DAL SHANG, the taverns have old wine, and young serving 
girls.  Who could ask for more?  Well, I'm burning daylight here in DAL SHANG and 
I've a long road ahead of me.  Happy Trails.  Until the sun next rises and my pen 
sets to paper-- Alarond the Scribe
