                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail and well met warriors of LIN TIRIAN!  Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp 
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  Former top team SAND DANCERS was 
unseated this week as FAMOUS ARCHERS moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot 
with a 2-1-0 record for the round.  ROBIN HOOD caught the eye of many in the 
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested FIELDER and was awarded 17 points in 
recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, BROKEN LOCK put down LEGOLAS, 
causing him to lose 19 points of recognition in the process.  Unwilling to wait upon 
the will of others, Duelmaster AMBUSH challenged ARC D'WOOF last week in a match to 
decide the fate of the throne.  Although ARC D'WOOF made a valiant effort, it did not 
suffice to topple the reign of victorious AMBUSH.  Heed this!  A seer has warned that 
if exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish!  Just remember...5 
or 7!   
     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 FAMOUS ARCHERS, a guild shunned and avoided 
by many in the weekly duels.  Apparently the stalwarts of V IS FOR VIOLINS are 
catching the bulk of jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the 
avoids.   
     Vendettas.  Bloodied blades and broken spears.  Indeed the city has seen more 
than its fair share of red in recent times.  Dark alleys may hide both secrets and 
assassins.  In the arena there is only the brightness of steel.  Keep vigil always!   
     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 - the pen is 
mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
