It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the clash and bustle of the weekly JADE MOUNTAIN games. I could not but notice the fine record for POSITIVE ALTERNATIVE (4-0-0) after their first round of combat. May the gods of war favor you in JADE MOUNTAIN! SCOTT caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested SAI-KI THE PEGLEG and was awarded 15 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, SHIZARAN BLACKHEART put down JADE RING, causing him to lose 2 points of recognition in the process. Although SUNSET THUNDER made a valiant effort, it did not suffice to topple the reign of victorious CORINTHIAN. Informants "close" to the city champion have told me that he never fights without pantyhose on beneath his armor. Watch out! Many and various are the arts of battle. In JADE MOUNTAIN "art" is a word that has long since passed from the language! What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his foe's mortality? Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always! A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise manager learn the secrets of them all? More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed a stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me! Till we meet again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME CORINTHIAN 3195 10 2 0 120 PARANOID ASYLUM (234) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME JAGINRU 3289 19 13 0 86 SAND DANCERS (67) SUNSET THUNDER 3301 9 4 0 80 SAND DANCERS (67) ABITA 3251 5 1 0 68 PARANOID ASYLUM (234) BEARSTONE KAI 3292 15 7 1 67 SAND DANCERS (67) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME KORTO LU 3287 9 24 1 52 SAND DANCERS (67) WICKER 3309 5 6 0 46 PARANOID ASYLUM (234) -LIFER 3250 5 2 0 38 PARANOID ASYLUM (234) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME JADE RING 3300 6 7 1 26 SAND DANCERS (67) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SCOTT 3319 1 0 0 15 POSITIVE ALTERNATIVE (294) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME COPPELIA 3322 1 0 0 14 POSITIVE ALTERNATIVE (294) TOBYMAC 3323 1 0 0 14 POSITIVE ALTERNATIVE (294) KELLI 3321 1 0 0 13 POSITIVE ALTERNATIVE (294) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.

I'm going to try to keep all the old Adantri arenas active, you'll see me in Daiyla Kiv soon and I'm already in Dal Shang, Lin Tirian, and now here. Look forward to sparring with you on the sands again. It's been too long. -- Zalgor Prigg, Positive Alternative Corinthian -- So I got lazy and didn't practice as much as I could've, big deal. You guys are going to be gone again any day now, just tourney timing, right? Why should I bust my buns? Who wants busted buns? -- Jaginru Wicker -- That rain gets into your bones, doesn't it? If wicker has bones. Whatever. And then you begin to get, I dunno, mildew? Instead of rheumatism. Don't know which would be worse. -- Bearstone Kai Abita -- You know what they say, Abita betta butta made the bitta batta betta. Or something like that. -- Korto Lu And two wins over standbys.
