                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, in DAYLA KIV a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor. 
So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news.  The SAND DANCERS guild has had a 
4-1-0 turn and deserves to be watched in the future.  You never know where this kind 
of thing can lead.  And let's see, LIGHTNING fought CRINGING CUTPURSE and gained 13 
points and contributed to SAND DANCERS' 4-1-0.  And not without some honor, UNCLE 
FRANK now claims the title and throne of Duelmaster of DAYLA KIV.  Tell me, is 
nothing sacred?  I have heard from unimpeachable sources that The Crystal Wheel uses 
trolls in their stew.  Talk about gristle!   
     The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more 
could a warrior ask of life?  Well, besides that.  BASH BROS MAILMAN has cause to 
stand tall, as they were DAYLA KIV's most avoided team.  A smart manager knows this 
is a team to beat.  And avoiding BASH BROS MAILMAN more than any other team we find 
PUPPY DOG PALS.  DAYLA KIV, 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.  Well, I'm burning daylight here in DAYLA KIV and I've a long road 
ahead of me.  Happy Trails.  Until you see my quill in DAYLA KIV again, farewell-- 
Alarond the Scribe

     I think these were from last turn....

Maybe too late, but here they are--

Uncle Frank -- You got me there, but I came out alive and with some useful skills, so 
it's all good. -- Red Kogan

Bah.  Hanval the Claw shouldn't have wasted his time striving for an opening.  I was 
there first. -- Ardia Li

But I WANTED to bury Pelis in the sand.  It would have been the right thing to do.  
Tiogan Crow

I told that Tinker he should get a different weapon.  How can you parry with a flail? 
-- Krenshew

Big Fat Belly -- It's a plot, isn't it? -- Peldan Djian

I don't have the energy to go recruiting today, and everyone's gone out of the city 
fol the Solstice celebrations anyway.  Next year, okay? -- Jorja

     And these are from this turn. 

No, really, this is too much.  Tiogan and I both fought standbys--

And lost to 'em, don't forget that! -- Tiogan

Yes, we lost.  It happens.  I just don't see any point at all in writing personals to 
them.  Pooh. -- Ardia Li

Big Fat Belly -- I was, um, stunned.  That's it.  Your impressive contours stunned me. 
-- Peldan Djian

ATTENTION:  Have you or a loved one has been diagnosed with the heartbreak of 
Muffintheliomariasis?  You may be entitled to financial compensation!  
Muffintheliomariasis is a common nervous system disorder linked to the destruction of 
self-worth and confidence due to the regular down-challenging of The Muffin Man.  
Symptoms and side effects include involuntary twitching, irritable bowels, sweating, 
abdominal pain, headache, gender impermanence, acute hygienic arrest, nausea and 
death.  These side effects typically occur after his down-challenging warrior has 
whomped up on you, your warrior or a loved one.  Are you at the end of your rope?
