                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail and well met warriors of DAYLA KIV!  Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp 
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  EXOGENOUS SHOCK caught the eye of 
many in the gladiatorial commission as it skillfully bested SHAMELESS BEGGAR and was 
awarded 17 points in recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, JACK 
FARMER put down MIGHTY MIKE, causing him to lose 7 points of recognition in the 
process.  Due to his absence and inability to defend the throne, DARWIN has lost the 
title of Duelmaster.  The city has turned out in honor of MIGUEL, for with hers arena 
victory she may now lay claim to the highest position in the city!  No confirmation, 
but my sources claim that the top team has gained their position using magical aids.  
Charmed weapons perhaps?   
     But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades 
that is city DAYLA KIV.  I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's 
challenge seeking began.  A.W. OF GUMBALL is feared.  This much I can say.  If you 
didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard pressed to find any of SPROUT OF MY 
WAY! last week.  Busy avoiding A.W. OF GUMBALL?  Loose talk at the arena has reached 
my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many fighters are after ANAIS.  Watch 
your back!   
     Vendettas.  Bloodied blades and broken spears.  Indeed the city has seen more 
than its fair share of red in recent times.  Fate is a fickle mistress.  She showers 
the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious.  Remember this!   
     If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times 
already in DAYLA KIV.  Nice atmosphere you have here!  Sadly warriors, now longer can 
I keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city.  Depart I must and soon!  Till 
next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different 
story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
