                                      SPY REPORT

     Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills?  Well 
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for DAYLA KIV.  Too bad, SPROUT OF MY WAY!, 
but SAND DANCERS was just too good to be stopped.  MVP award for TALIA TYL SALTH?  
SAND DANCERS' proud of her after beating SHAMELESS BEGGAR and getting 15 points.  And 
I was just getting used to the ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!)  Oh well, welcome 
DARWIN.  Aren't A.W. OF GUMBALL proud.  (Oh, my.) Is the Duelmaster really being a 
real snob to his teammates?  Don't ask me!   
     AAARRGH!!!  I HATE SPYREPORTING!!!  Sorry.  I just had to say it.  HELL'S PACK 
was DAYLA KIV's most avoided team.  Is there some award for that?  Hhmph!  What kind 
of warriors are SPROUT OF MY WAY!?  HELL'S PACK, an easy team to beat if I ever saw 
one, can't get them to accept an invitation!   
     Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other!  Don't you guys ever give 
it a break?  Fight, fight, fight.  Is that all you guys can do?   
     Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain.  Soak it in cold water, and hand 
wash.  I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it quits.  Its been 
really albendranius!  Later, guys-- Debby Tonte

                          Name Change-o-Rama -- Final Update

      The Commission's administrative office on the Isle was in a big square building 
that looked like any other administrative office building in any national capital.  
Standard, boring.  Except for the goats.  Half a dozen goats were wandering free, 
eating the landscaping, and as many clerks were chasing them.  A clerk saw them 
coming, he looked like a Trustworthy Scribe, and he rushed over to the approaching 
gladiators.  "Do you know anything about goats?"  He gestured helplessly at the hungry 
goats.  "They're here because of the Name-Change-o-Rama. We donate them to help change 
the world, you know."
      The gladiators nodded.  They'd heard about it, but hadn't thought it would be so 
funny to see.  "How did you deal with them last time?"
      The clerk made a disgusted gesture.  "People came and took them away.  But the 
people didn't come this time.  They sent a message about being quarantined!  Aren't we 
all?  And WE get to work!  Goats are not in our job description."
      One of the gladiators snorted laughter.  "We'll help," he said. "Where do you 
want them?"

                                       * * * * 

      Embric, relieved that he had not been appointed goat-herder this afternoon, 
carefully dipped his pen in ink and began to write.  "It is our pleasure and honor 
to note that one hundred and twenty-seven gladiators and teams have elected to change 
their names, supporting the contribution of goats to deserving people.  With the 
Commission's matching funds, this has purchased six goats--a good goat can't be 
purchased for a copper, you know.  The goats are already en route to their new homes, 
where they will be--"  He paused and thought about it.  "--very welcome.  We wish all 
the best to the goats and the new goat-owners."
