Hammer has granted his original MILCHAMAH stable the opportunity to carry on our unrefined tradition here in DragonHead for the unforeseen future. My thanks to SOURDOUGH and especially IRON BITCH for the opportunity to climb the ranks and be seated upon the Duel Master's Throne in such unexpected fashion. Now my future is in the blade of my hand as I endeavor to do Hammer proud by graduating from this fine arena; although it has been several years since our stable was competing in The Hammer 400 over on Niytyole Island in DM 33. The View from the Top is even More Glorious over here in DragonHead Arena! -- MAKKEH KILLER P.S. Special thanks to Assur for deactivating KOOL AID for the upcoming Summer Facer Champs Tourney, which paved my way to the DragonHead Throne! P.P.S. Hammer had our stable transferred over here from DM 82 after reading the Personal Ad from Assur explaining why he was prepping his Bashers [and any other warrior styles] over here in DragonHead instead of in DM 82, so Assur deserves some of the credit for my surprising success here in DragonHead Arena! SPY REPORT Hail and well met warriors of DRAGONHEAD! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team MEAT YOUR MAKER was unseated this week as MILCHAMAH moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot with a 3-2-0 record for the round. Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner! Witness how this week DEADLY RAGE went 1-1-1 to move up 5 in the rankings. 2 PHAT 2 caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested MADKAWRAW'S LAW and was awarded 20 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, 2 PHAT 2 put down MADKAWRAW'S LAW, causing her to lose 19 points of recognition in the process. Not for nothing has MAKKEH KILLER in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this week she's proven hers combat skill yet again. 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! But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades that is city DRAGONHEAD. I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's challenge seeking began. DEADLY RAGE is feared. This much I can say. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard pressed to find any of MILCHAMAH last week. Busy avoiding DEADLY RAGE? Loose talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many fighters are after 2 PHAT 2. Watch your back! Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand ready at your right hand forever! I must report the passing of MOOL'S ZPR?PPER, veteran of many duels. 8-20-0 final record Hers was not illustrious--but death plays no favorites. Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this! A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise manager learn the secrets of them all? 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 next we meet remember: a fool flies into a rage quickly and often. The wise are angered by the same thing only once.
