SPY REPORT
Hail DRAGONHEAD! Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for
your deeds. Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for there are sorrows to drown
for ONE MAN BAND, whose 0-2-0 this turn dropped them by 4 into 7th. On their very
first turn, MONGREL HORDE had a 4-1-0, and with this kind of luck or skill, should do
well. Welcome to DRAGONHEAD. And let's see, SNOOP DOGGY DOGG fought PERSISTANT
BEGGAR and gained 15 points and contributed to MONGREL HORDE's 4-1-0. TENZIN GYATSO
has lost to OSKSI NOBLE, falling 17 points, while helping make ARTIC FIRE a 2-2-0
turn. We should ask SLO-PITCH about the thrill of victory, and what being the new
Duelmaster does for a warrior, it's now the one to ask. Can someone confirm a rumor
for me? I hear the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at The Dripping
Blade until they win. Maybe?
Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.'
Inscrutable, but true. ONE MAN BAND has cause to stand tall, as they were
DRAGONHEAD's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team to beat. And
guess who avoided ONE MAN BAND stable the most? Believe it or not, it was ARTIC
FIRE. Anyone surprised? The most challenged warrior this turn was ARCTIC STORM's
warrior VEERAS. More fighters challenged him than challenged the Duelmaster!
A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to
be true. 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, DRAGONHEAD, the taverns have old wine, and young serving
girls. Who could ask for more? Always good to rest in DRAGONHEAD, but never good to
wear out my welcome. Look for me in future turns. Until you see my quill in
DRAGONHEAD again, farewell-- Alarond the Scribe
