                                      SPY REPORT

     You elder fighters surely remember me.  The younger ones may call me Olaf 
Modeen.  I return to DAYLA KIV once again!  What's with TELGAN TEN VORH?  He actually 
beat DARKLINGS' SPIRIT HOUND, and walked away with 23 more points from the fight.  
Laughs were big at SAND DANCERS while they watched TELGAN TEN VORH clobber SPIRIT 
HOUND.  He lost 18 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands.  Har 
har har!  Did SPALDING wimp out, or just get lazy?  Anyway, he's not Duelmaster 
anymore.  I can barely restrain my enthusiam for ARENA FELINES' outstanding member, 
Duelmaster CAT STEVENS.  I suppose you want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip 
about your fellow fighters?  Tough!   
     Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges...   
     A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing.  Some fighters 
don't accept this.  The best do.  How long have I been here?  I got people to see, 
places to go...   
     Well, I'm pretty much through.  You guys need to get back practicing.  All work 
and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter.  Work and play no fighter dull Olaf.  
Olaffighterwork and no play.  Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and 
good luck.  Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen

Spalding -- I am so glad to cede you the title, you can't imagine!  Thanks, pal.
Next drink's on me. -- Korba Klee

Sam Goody -- But obviously not a GOODY-goody.  Ouch. -- Jujuble

Sandman -- Well, actually...I did chuckle. -- Telgan ten Vorh

Starbuck -- Ah!  You have long been a favorite of mine.  It's a pleasure to finally
meet you. -- Lura tyl Zuris
P.S.  Usually our encounters go the other way.  I can kill a double-mocha SO fast!

Well...I guess a standby makes a good beginning, hmm? -- Krissara

Rornis the Dark -- Yes, well, tough. -- Lura tyl Zuris

10 July 2006
The Dark Knights sat at the Dark Table with grim faces.  All present knew that there
could be no quarter.  The Forces of Desolation would be unleashed.  There would be no
turning back, no mercy and no hesitation to do what was necessary.  Teeth gritted and
knuckles whitened with fury as the IMPERIAL PROCLAMATION was signed by each Dark
Knight.
     AS OF JULY 1, 2006 -- WAR IS DECLARED ON THE ALLIANCE KNOWN AS THE VENDETTA
CARTEL.
     The Desolate Empire -- Dark Knights:  Ancient Creep, Blackstorm, Dok Sik, Goat,
Heathen, Hatebred, Kon, Osiris, Toker, Wasby the Great

14 July 2006
In response to the Desolate Empire's declaration of war, the Vendetta Cartel offers
the following response:

The members of the Vendetta Cartel can be found in 1, 8, 9, 10,  11, 14, 22, 25, 28,
31, 39, 45, 47, 50, 52, 54, 59, 60, 100, and 106.  Stop yapping in the all-arena ads,
pick an arena, issue a challenge, actually win something, and then maybe (and we
stress maybe) you may speak.  You may come to our home arenas (8, 31, and 47) and
confront us, but we suggest you learn to win in your own "home" arena (52) first.
