                             Notes from the arena champ.

     I can shoot. I can win. I do both all the time. That's why I have TWO DM Titles 
and most of you have all of zippo.
     Some info for you ......... "Katniss Everdeen is the heroine of the popular 
Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins, whose name comes from the (very real) edible 
aquatic plant of the genus Sagittaria. Katniss's father tells her that if she "finds 
herself," she'll never go hungry. Other unusual botanical names in the series include 
Primrose, Posy, Rue, and Clove, all for girls."
     Fight me if you dare. Just don't eat the wrong plant!

                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings warriors!  It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the 
clash and bustle of the weekly LIN TIRIAN games.  Former top team FAMOUS ARCHERS was 
unseated this week as SAND DANCERS moved up from 3rd ranking to take the top spot 
with a 3-2-0 record for the round.  TUSSLE caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial 
commission as she skillfully bested CONVICTED THIEF and was awarded 13 points in 
recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, CONVICTED ASSASSIN put down 
SKIPPIT, causing her to lose 2 points of recognition in the process.  This time 
victory fell to the grasp of the usurper.  All hail BELIAL ERNESTO, Duelmaster of LIN 
TIRIAN!  No confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has gained their 
position using magical aids.  Charmed weapons perhaps?   
     I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently 
transpired.  Indeed there is much I would report.  LIN TIRIAN, city of gladiators!  
Mighty among the names of thy guilds is SAND DANCERS, a guild shunned and avoided by 
many in the weekly duels.  If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard 
pressed to find any of FAMOUS ARCHERS last week.  Busy avoiding SAND DANCERS?  Loose 
talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many 
fighters are after EYELENE.  Watch your back!   
     What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his 
foe's mortality?  Some say a warrior is judged by the way he bears arms.  One thing 
is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt!   
     The girls are as pretty in LIN TIRIAN as ever I remembered them....and the 
fighters as ugly!  Don't let your reputation slip!  Ahh, but I can hear the spires of 
a far off city calling to me.  I must away!  Till next we meet remember:  a fool 
flies into a rage quickly and often.  The wise are angered by the same thing only 
once.  Zontani Sharp Eyes
