     Hail ERINIKA!  Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for your 
deeds.  It seems the training can make the difference, as MONGOL HORDE is pushed out 
of top team by CALENDAR GIRLS, who came from 2nd with a 3-0-0 this turn.  RUMS THE 
WORD stable has parlayed this turn's 1-0-0 into a 7 space move up the rankings.  This 
brings them up to 7th place.  Good work, guys!  The CALENDAR GIRLS guild has had a 
3-0-0 turn and deserves to be watched in the future.  You never know where this kind 
of thing can lead.  And let's see, AVRIL LAVIGNE fought MENKALINAN and gained 20 
points and contributed to CALENDAR GIRLS' 3-0-0.  MENKALINAN has lost to AVRIL 
LAVIGNE, falling 15 points, while helping make AURIGA a 0-1-0 turn.  Well done, 
ERINIKA, the Duelmaster was this turn's most challenged warrior.  Perhaps NERGAL is 
not as thrilled, being challenged 2 times.  And all eyes were on ROSENTHAL this turn 
as he ascended to the throne of Duelmaster.  ERINIKA has a new victor!  By the way, 
was that our Duelmaster that I saw last night, cramped under the table at The 
Dripping Blade?   
     The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more 
could a warrior ask of life?  Well, besides that.  I also notice that the TUCANA II 
stable was the most avoided team this turn.  Come on ERINIKA, what are you afraid of? 
And avoiding TUCANA II more than any other team we find GASHOUSE GANG.  ERINIKA, are 
we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing?   
     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.  A brave warrior does not carry a 
red shield, he has nothing to cover or hide when the fight is over.  Consider well.   
     Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe.  Dare 
to fight bravely.  It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your 
swords sharp and your hammers heavy.  Until you see my quill in ERINIKA again, 
farewell-- Alarond the Scribe
