The unmistakeable crunching noise made when a gladiator's weapon strikes unprotective flesh, shattering the bone. Kayelbe had heard it many, many times before. He gazed out onto the sands from the Manager's pavillion. He both dreaded and expected this very same outcome. He watched as the warrior known as Kennastone weakly raised his hands up to his throat where moments before the quarterstaff of the Daggers Deep warrior, Captain Scragg, had impacted. Kennastone's eyes desperately darted between Scragg and the Arenamaster as he slowly sank to his knees. Scragg did not wait for the Arenamaster's signal that the duel was over. He too knew the sound of the deathblow, having heard it just a few weeks before when Kennastone had delivered it to the Caravan Guard. That was why he was out here again this week. The manager of Daggers Deep had tried to persuade Scragg that the Bloodfeud was honorably settled the last time he faced Kennastone, but to no avail. Captain Scragg would not rest until his son's death was avenged, and Kayelbe knew it. Scragg walked away, seemingly ignoring the roar of the crowd and the final gurgles of life from his fallen foe. He brushed past his waiting teammates and exited the arena but not before dropping his staff at his manager's feet. The members of Daggers Deep joined their manager under the pavillion. "So." began Raeg Trops. "Looks like Scragg just quit." "Yes, it appears so," said the weary stablemaster. "Perhaps I should remind him that there is only one way out of a gladiatorial stable, barring the call of the Isle." Kayelbe followed after his warrior, his robes fluttering in his haste. The warriors of Daggers Deep watched as their leader disappeared into the crowd. Already, another fight was beginning out on the sands. The infirmary orderlies must have quickly carted away the corpse of the young Kennastone. Theirs was a task of practiced efficiency here in Shadowspire. The remaining warriors watched with muted interest as the latest contest unfolded before them. Their own battles of the week still lay ahead, and the behavior of their teammate did little to aid their concentration. Finally one of the newest members of Daggers Deep broke the silence. "What happens now?" Argin Spyrl asked. The young rookie was full of questions since arriving this past week. He had much to learn, raw recruit as he was. Apparently the rules of the Bloodfeud were not yet part of his lessons. "Does this mean the Bloodfeud between us and the Immortal Asylum is over?" Yruf turned to face the lad. "No young one, it is not. I'm quite certain a new Bloodfeud has begun." * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * Sadly, Kellumbo surveys his team. What was once a proud, well oiled machine, is now a broken down husk of what it once was. While his warriors are supposed to be training for the upcoming fights, this is what he sees: Volbeat, sitting off in the corner of the arena, listening to Black Betty over and over. Kellumbo screams at him, "Just because you are a scum, doesn't mean you don't have to practice. You don't need more practice sitting there doing nothing! Perhaps we can get Gentleben's lousy warrior to beat on your head again. Pathetic!" Latrice keeps swinging and missing the target dummy. My oh my, Kellumbo wonders, which is the dummy here? Beauchamp at least seems to be trying. Kellumbo offers praise, only to have her come up and whine about how the commission messed up her trains last turn. Oh my, if it isn't one thing it is another. At least she shows promise. Miss Bunny looks strong, jumping crisply from target dummy to target dummy. Yes, Miss Bunny is one of the few bright spots on an otherwise putrid team. Lastly, we see Devon tripping over his Longspear, and wheezing as he enters the training grounds. Such a pathetic warrior. Kellumbo knew he wouldn't be great, but maybe, just maybe he figured, he could squeeze a few wins in with him short term, to help in the race to 200 wins. Sadly, Devon has hurt more than helped. Kellumbo calls his "warriors" in, and has this to say: "Once, Kellumbo's Kids was a team to be feared. Once, we had a solid lead on the race to 200 wins. Now...look at you all. A disgrace! Listen up, and listen well. We only have a few turns left to make a push for 200 wins. We have to stop La Pentarchie! I'm sending all of you who are in range of his warriors on a double challenge of them. The rest of you, have challenges you can win. It was tough, as Consortium joined the arena early, so no more downchallenges for the next 26 turns, but we'll make do with what we can. This.... This is our last stand to stop La Pentarchie from reaching 200 wins before we do. You had better win this turn, because if you don't, I can assure you, THIS WILL BE YOUR LAST STAND!" With that, Kellumbo shoos his pathetic team away. As they leave, they can hear him mutter to himself, "I can't wait for this race to 200 to be over one way or the other. As soon as it is, at least three of those bozos will be getting the slip for a little fighting under the light of torches at night." DUELMASTER'S COLUMN Notes from the arena champ. It is a great honor to reign as your Duelmaster, if for only one turn. My manager always had a great amount of faith in me and always told me he had no doubts I'd reach the top here eventually. I know he is slightly disappointed I will sit here for only a single turn, but in an arena where 35+ teams run regularly, it is a tall mountain to climb to reach the top. One must simply appreciate both the opportunity to be here and the great view it provides! There is a lot of tough competition here at the top and many fine warriors. I have no doubts that the warrior that gains the throne upon my departure will be a worthy one! PO'd Panda laid a serious butt whopping on me several turns ago in a title fight and made me appreciate just how tough it is to earn this title. I think he helped put a little bit more fire in my belly to make sure that if I was lucky enough to get one more title fight before graduation, to make the most of it and not let another opportunity slip thru my fingers. As to my challenges this turn, I elected to give the honor of trying to take the title away from me to Kanodraug and Rat in the Hat. I challenged them both in an attempt to prove I am not only a worthy Duelmaster, but the best Striker in the arena at this time! I might have challenged Thag too, but his manager is unpredictable and I wasn't sure if he'd even be fighting next turn. Rat in the Hat was a fine competitor last turn and I was thrilled to be able to best him, thus he earns the second challenge. I am certain we will see him on the throne again soon (hopefully not next turn though!). Life and luck to you all! Lord Protector Wilhelm SPY REPORT I can't believe the violence in SHADOWSPIRE! I still haven't told Mom I'm writing Spyreports. She'd have a cow! Well, here we go... Like, DRAGONBANE GUILD had to be so embarrassed when they got kicked off #1 spot by RODENT CLAN! Way to go RODENT CLAN! I couldn't believe it. Did CAPITAL CARTEL really go up by 16? If only those guys didn't have so may missing teeth... Gross! One team deserves special mention 'cause they moved up 4 after going 4-1-1. Keep it up, CLAN LONGBEARD! I talked to THE COCKTAILS' manager before the fights. He said, "We're gonna do good." And look at this: 4-1-0! Psychic, or what! And I was just getting used to the ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!) Oh well, welcome KANODRAUG. Aren't THE DRAUGS proud. (Oh, my.) Who was the wiseguy that said SHADOWSPIRE's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Warty Toad? Don't look at me! I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies. Really, I just wing this stuff. KELLUMBO'S KIDS was SHADOWSPIRE's most avoided team. Is there some award for that? I don't know what DRAGONBANE GUILD's been doing. They certainly haven't been accepting many fights from KELLUMBO'S KIDS, that's fer sher. Can MONSTER MANUAL's CHIMERA be more popular than me? He was challenged the most, but is that really the same? For sure, I was holding my breath when I found out CLARA challenged TING-TING. After all, haven't HOUSE OF HEARTS and FUCHI OWNED had a long standing duel in SHADOWSPIRE? It wasn't a spectacular fight, or anything, but TING-TING wants me to write about it since she was overcame by CLARA. Satisfied? OWL-EYES must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair fights. He challenged ARIOCH. 14 is a big difference. (Well, that's what they tell me.) I thought OWL-EYES showed great skill and promise when he bested ARIOCH. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal! What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone gets killed. Not after four more fights. Pinch me, I must be dreaming!!! LIBERIUS returns from the Dark Arena, maybe a "little upset" at his WARMASTERS teammates... D'ya think SPIKE is feeling guilty for killing LETHAL FORMULA's KYZERSOSAE, a mere boy? Naah, I doubt it. It was kind of sad, seeing old H.P. LOVECRAFT stumbling around the arena, before GRACCHUS finished him off. Oh well! What a bummer deal for ZULLIE! She just barely was getting hers "fighter feet" but got kill by TITUS of WARMASTERS! Those're the breaks, I guess. CORRIN of CLAN LONGBEARD wasn't planning on killing MISS BUNNY, I bet. Now he has to worry about being Bloodfeuded, and getting put on lists... OFFICE BRWN NOSER really fought hard against W.S. GILBERT. That'll teach LITERATE LOONS not to go and kill any of CORPORATE IDIOTS' guys again, huh! Like was that some Bloodfeud, or what? (OFFICE BRWN NOSER vs. W.S. GILBERT, that is.) SPIKE bloodfeuded (is that a word?) KYZERSOSAE for revenge over some guy's bad fortune. Was it really worth it? Fight, fight, fight. Is that all you guys can do? I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be a famous Spyreporter? I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really should stop. Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out!

I assure you, he will no doubt be there to accept your own Bloodfeud challenge, provided I can convince him not to retire. -- Kayelbe, manager of Daggers Deep Shadowspire -- Do not attempt to adjust your scrying devices, the awful rumors are indeed true. The Natural Born Killer has returned to Alastari. My latest squad looks forward to crossing swords with (and planting 6 feet under) your finest warriors. -- Mordraith, mgr. Some Kinda Hate Captain Scragg -- Ah, Blood for Blood. Glad to see the old ways aren't completely dead... -- Mordraith, mgr. Some Kinda Hate All -- I think I'm liking this start. After all, I get a straight 10 percent from each Capital Cartel associate. -- Agent, Capital Cartel Monica -- I'd sweat for you any day. That was a lot of friendly fun, wasn't it? -- Head Band CEO -- I don't have anything at all against CEOs, but when they are corporate Idiots, well, then. -- Book Mark Ilyena -- I put everything I had into that birdie! Now let's go get some crepes for breakfast. -- Flop Shot The General -- You sure fouled a lot of them off before I could put you away. -- Low And Away Onion Thing -- I really wanted the burger, but all good things come to he who waits for the rive. -- Limp In Hey you Corporate Cartel buys, let's change uniforms. I don't like these old ones with the targets painted on the back. -- Agent Athame -- Man, I flailed enough, didn't I? Shesh. -- Gothik Brain -- Well, looks like you will go unpunished for the kill, hell I knew I wasn't going to win that one but had to at least give my highest ranked guy a shot. Nice attack there. -- Tripwire Zullie -- Well that sealed my fate. I hate having the endurance of a flea. -- Grobbulus Ugh! 1-4 on our first turn was not what we hoped for. -- Otto X, mgr. Otto's Diner Agent -- You're supposed to fight five warriors in Shadowspire. Dressing up a store mannequin in armor doesn't count! -- Onion Thing Kyzersosae -- Let\'s try that again. -- Spike MSG -- Speed kills. -- Black Betty CPA -- Don't you hate it when you get your challenge through and you lose? -- Shredder Gutbuster -- Gah! Me wants to kill sumthin'! -- Lazy-eye Luke It was only a decent turn for my colors... 6 more to go... but it was a splendid day for Shadowspire. It's a real pleasure to welcome on the same turn the mighty Consortium and the formidable Crip. We will eat at your place, Otto! And welcome back to one of the very successful founders of the City, the Ragnaroks wolves manager... What a day! Congrats to Wilhelm. -- Le Pentarque By the way, with all these teams, we would need of our historians to publish a fresh list of managers.. welcome to anyone I could have forgotten! I hope you aren't looking at me! The Saint, Keeper of Lists, retired. -- the editor Incredible, noble Gerth, I would have bet my shirt on you! Well, I'm so lucky! -- St John Kitten Brilliant moves, Bowtie Bob... I was startled... -- Iron Smith Kimbhulee -- Although your record doesn't reflect it, you scored a kill last turn. I don't know if you are simply that good or Liberius is that bad, but his loss to you earned him a fight by torchlight. Congratulations, you look to have a bright future ahead of you! - Vanek, manager of Warmasters This is very exciting to see. Another turn in Shadowspire where new teams arrive! I love to see it. Welcome to Otto's Diner! And a warm welcome back to Consortium and his Capital Cartel. -- Vanek Shadowspire -- It's been over a two year run but now it's time for us to leave you. We've had great times and memories along the way. Best of luck to each and everyone of you. Who knows, maybe someday we'll flex our muscle again. -- Elephant and American Muscle Ragnarok's Wolves -- Our condolences on your loss. Unfortunaley you caught us on our way out and won't be able to BF. -- American Muscle Le P -- Glad you talked us into one more turn. 5-0-1 and 72 rec points. Now that's what I call going out with a bang. -- Elephant P.S. I even gave them one more chance to make things right like you suggested. Guess what? No response. At least I tried. Liam O'Flaherty -- You have to be the tallest dwarf I have ever seen. -- Dunnik St George -- You are one nasty Ratani, I will make a point to avoid you in the future. -- Urrim Briarsmile -- I really wasn't trying to kill you, honest. -- Corrin Daphne Rosen -- You are an excellent tutor, well fought. -- Fimnar St John Kitten -- I wasn't prepared for a rematch. Till next time. -- Luhar 08 Challenger -- You do realize that every member of the clan wants your head. -- Dunnik Ettin -- Looks like I need alot more practice. Well fought. -- Urrim HP Lovecraft -- Though your record does not show it, you are a fine opponent and warrior. I salute you for sharing your knowledge so graciously. -- Corrin Sophia Fiera -- Keep training my dear, you will make your mark soon enough. -- Fimnar Shadowspire -- My manager name is Bladerunner, and my new team here is Lethal Formula. I'm looking forward to crossing blades with my old friends, as well as some new ones. This arena is a neat concept, and the support looks to be solid. This should be some good fun, and a nice distraction form the beatdowns I'm enduring in Primus until my stable gets it's head on straight. -- Bladerunner LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS LIBERIUS viciously butchered DARK CHAMPION in a 2 minute Dark Arena fight.
