                                      SPY REPORT

     Oh, hi.  Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte.  Thought I'd check out ERINIKA to see 
what's new.  Like, THIRD HIGHWAY 3 had to be so embarrassed when they got kicked off 
#1 spot by LIFE AND DEATH!  Way to go LIFE AND DEATH!  Wanna hear about a real loser? 
Listen to this--VULPECULA got 0-1-0 and dropped 20.  Didn't see much of them after 
the fights!  MVP award for SUHAIL?  VELA's proud of him after beating CHUCK BYWAY and 
getting 22 points.  Talk about yer major upsets!  CHUCK BYWAY's match with SUHAIL 
cost him a loss of 23 points!  This Duelmaster is like something else!  VILLIAGE 
YUPPIE stopped SIR GARLON dead in his tracks!  I hear the top team insists all their 
warriors get nine hours sleep.  They want photogenic fighters for PR photos.   
     Look, you guys stick to fighting, all right?   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All ERINIKA ever talks about is fighting!  
Me, I'm more laid back.  MENKALINAN's pretty happy--he wasted WORFLAIL and didn't 
even get a Bloodfeud from MORNINGSTAR TREK!  Fight, fight, fight.  Is that all you 
guys can do?   
     I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid.  Who would've guessed I'd be 
a famous Spyreporter?  I gotta leave.  ERINIKA is like such a dump, and you guys 
smell too much!  Remember you guys, ease up sometimes!  Chill out!  Later, Debby 
Tonte

I do! -- Carnac the Magnificent

The incursion of chaos creatures into northern Alastari has been stopped.  However, 
the gate they came through is open, and there are people from Alastari trapped on the 
other side.  They need to be rescued, and the gate needs to be closed.  If you have a 
Lord Protector whom you would like to send on this mission, please send a message to 
the Gladiatorial Commmission (email csr@reality.com or via diplo).  We will need to 
know their physical description, personality, and method of fighting.  We will select 
no more than a dozen volunteers.  Thank you!
