DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Well.... Turn three of my reign until immortality.... Pelak, it was a pleasure
barely breaking a sweat in our "battle" for the throne. That is three consecutive
different Sand Dancers I have faced for the throne of Chavez Ravine (side note: what
the hell kind of name is that for an arena and what blathering idiot came up with
that?) and three Sand Dancers that have ultimately failed. I am surrounded by the
Dancers on the Sands and it appears that unless Papa Bear activates Arm I will once
again have to face one of the Dancers. So my challenge this cycle goes to Donstan,
seeing as how Pelak has gotten his invite to the Isle I will cut him some slack.
Donstan...prepare to be read the..........
Riot Act; Insignificance
SPY REPORT
It's me, The Unknown Spymaster here with my bag to give you the news on last
week's fights. Say good-bye to SLYTHERIN HOUSE, as they are pushed from the coveted
top team spot by the SAND DANCERS stable. Hey everybody, watch out for RETRIBUTION,
who flew up 22 points in the rankings after mashing MADAME U-TANA like a melon. Keep
your eye on this guy. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.
RONSEVAN was subdued by PANSY PARKINSON and drops 3 points. Going for the gusto and
coming up with aught but bloody knuckles was SAND DANCERS' PELAK TEN ZORN, who was
turned away from the Duelmastership by RIOT ACT. Can you believe they are paying me
10 gold to deliver this stuff?
But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!
Here's a song for you: Who's afraid of the big, bad CORPS? Big bad CORPS. Big bad
CORPS. CHAVEZ RAVINE's afraid of the big bad CORPS. Tra la la la la! And you guys
like to boo me? Well, unsling your rasberries, cause INSIGNIFICANCE beats feet every
time CORPS smiles at them. Try farming, eh? Well dang howdy, but if challenges were
votes, DONSTAN would be president. Although it may be a contest he doesn't want to
win.
Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the
most interesting, though! Knowing when to use the right tactics at the proper time
is a very important step on the road to Duelmaster.
I think I had better cut this one short. It's been nice chatting to those of
you whom I have not offended yet. C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some tracks. Hasta la
bye-bye. (Loud choruses of 'Beat it, ya bum!')-- The Unknown Spymaster

Riot Act -- So you got the throne. Big hairy deal, *I* got an Invitation to the
Isle! Let Olinda put THAT in her pipe and smoke it! -- Lord Protector Pelak ten Zorn
P.S. She's not really my sister, you know. More like a cousin, in a complicated
sort of way.
Sum of All Men -- Somehow, I find that a depressing thought. Fortunately, it can't
POSSIBLY be true. -- Ronsevan
Komar the Penniless -- So wouldn't begging be an easier life than standby gladiating?
-- Tsirell
Hanval the Claw -- (smugly) Tough luck, eh? -- Donstan
Lalvo of the Pen -- Oh, a forger? I love beating up forgers. -- Jaego Klee
Tsirell -- I don't HAVE to enter the arena, you say? It would be better, maybe, if I
just let the sheriff out at No Kia throw me in jail for alleged vagrancy? I don't
think so! -- an anonymous Traveling Tinker
P.S. I have never understood that. How is throwing me in jail going to give me a
chance to get a job and a visible means of support?
Pelak ten Zorn -- Of course I'm a standby, sonny! And you should show me more
respect. -- Pelis the Old
