                                      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.  And let's see, HISSY fought LILY 
and gained 10 points and contributed to PUPPY DOG PALS' 3-0-0.  LILY has lost to 
HISSY, falling 6 points, while helping make SPROUT OF MY WAY! a 0-1-0 turn.  This 
week's Duelmaster bout was between PELDAN DJIAN and our Duelmaster ROLLY, making a 
challenge.  Defending his title for another turn, ROLLY kept SAND DANCERS' warrior, 
PELDAN DJIAN, from claiming the throne.  Can someone confirm a rumor for me?  I hear 
the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at The Crystal Wheel until they 
win.  Maybe?   
     I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling.  A basher 
friend of mine assures me this is true.  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 guess who avoided BASH BROS MAILMAN stable the most?  Believe it or not, 
it was PUPPY DOG PALS.  Anyone surprised?  The most challenged warrior this turn was 
SAND DANCERS' warrior PELDAN DJIAN.  More fighters challenged him than challenged the 
Duelmaster!   
     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.  Is it really true that DAYLA KIV 
has more dishwashers per capita that fighters?  Just thought I'd ask...   
     Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the 
sweetest.  Always good to rest in DAYLA KIV, but never good to wear out my welcome.  
Look for me in future turns.  Until you see my quill in DAYLA KIV again, farewell-- 
Alarond the Scribe
