SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly KYR'TERR games. Former top team ENROUTE TO ST LOUIS
was unseated this week as WESTERN FRONTIER moved up from 5th ranking to take the top
spot with a 3-0-0 record for the round. There were bitter words at ENTENTER's
guildhouse after a 0-0-0 showing this week which dropped the stable into 14th. Dark
Arena anyone? Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner! Witness
how this week OTTAWA SENATORS went 3-0-0 to move up 6 in the rankings. Did only my
eyes note the 3-0-0 record which WESTERN FRONTIER managed to post this round? I
don't doubt that such a record will draw challengers! MERCURY SABLE caught the eye
of many in the gladiatorial commission as it skillfully bested FAIZUN GOTE and was
awarded 18 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, MERCURY
SABLE put down FAIZUN GOTE, causing him to lose 14 points of recognition in the
process. Not for nothing has AYE OF THE NEEDLE in the past laid claim to the
Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's proven his combat skill yet again. No
confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has gained their position using
magical aids. Charmed weapons perhaps?
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. KYR'TERR, city of gladiators!
Mighty among the names of thy guilds is ENTENTER, a guild shunned and avoided by many
in the weekly duels. Apparently the stalwarts of WESTERN FRONTIER are catching the
bulk of jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids.
Mighty fighters cannot but expect competition from those below. FAIZUN GOTE take
warning! You have more than a few enemies in KYR'TERR.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the
miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
The girls are as pretty in KYR'TERR as ever I remembered them....and the
fighters as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! More than a sharp eye must I
keep, indeed a stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari
await me! Till we meet again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell,
and harms no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Turnpike -- Ah. I prefer the freeways, myself, and the back roads and byways over
that. No need to go rushing through life, after all, we're all going to end up the
same regardless, so take your time on the way is what I say. Enjoy it while you can.
All that stuff. -- Benito Chatte
Brown Eyed Susan -- Ah, a brown-eyed blonde! (twirls his mustache) Very hot. I do
like an aggressive woman. Are you busy tonight? -- Faizun Gote
Kingston -- But, my good golem, why would anyone WANT to go to St Louis? The traffic
is terrible. -- Dorine Eagel
P.S. Of course, there IS a Trader Joe's....
Outer Space -- Well, I'm surprised I learned even one skill from you. After all,
everyone says outer space is quite empty and void. It seems like this is not
ENTIRELY true, eh? -- Halda Impola
Jason Spezza -- (shocked look) They elect GOLEMS as senators? Hmm. Actually, that
might be an advantage. Fewer human passions, especially since you are without
gender, to get in the way.... -- Kully Lamm
Halifax -- Boy, some people just can't take a little difficulty! Listen, the mess
your records were in, I didn't HAVE to embezzle, I couldn't have gotten your taxes
right if you'd paid me to! -- Cheevers, Skilled Accountant
P.S. Okay, so you DID pay me to, and I did actually try for a while, too.
Sandia Ridge -- You didn't have to throw me off the western face. -- Rowe l'Gato,
Charming and Determined Beggar
Rick Monday -- (sneer) -- an Osksi Noble
P.S. I bet you didn't think I COULD sneer with that split lip. Ha!
Mercury Sable -- Some people are sadists. Just because I got captured doesn't mean I
DESERVE to be hacked up. -- a broody and annoyed Captured Orc
Barrie -- You're all out to get me, aren't you? -- Tommi Two-Toes, cowed Fratsfa
Slave
Albuquerque -- In fact, I'm SURE of it. Out to GET me. -- Tommi Two-Toes, cowed and
paranoid (but I have real enemies) Fratsfa Slave
