                             Notes from the arena champ.

     And thus comes the end of a long project.   My final numbers are: 16(4)-21(3)-14-
4(1)-21(3)-10(1)-13(3), and the Commission tells me I'm naturally adept with the Epee 
(yeah right, like that's going to happen), with a Low/Very Low fighting rhythm (which 
is what I happened to use in minute 1 in most of my fights), and I focus on PARRY 
SKILLS in training.  Well, maybe if I had ever tried to train skills, I would have 
focused on them, but yep, you heard it right, 50 fights in a slow arena and never once 
have I attempted to train skills.    
     Needless to say, after challenging the Dark Arena this turn, the boss says I get 
a long deserved retirement.

                                      SPY REPORT

     I was going on vacation, see?  Surf, sun...  But what do those bums say?  "Hit 
the road, Debby Tonte.  TELORINTHE needs a spyreport."  Oh, well.  Too bad, BAD 
SIGNS, but SANITARIUM was just too good to be stopped.  I talked to SCORPIO'S 
LIKES:'s manager before the fights.  He said, "We're gonna do good."  And look at 
this:  4-1-2!  Psychic, or what!  MVP award for A SMOKING WOMAN?  SCORPIO'S LIKES:'s 
proud of her after beating CONVICTED THIEF and getting 14 points.  Talk about yer 
major upsets!  VENUS' match with NECRODANCER cost her a loss of 8 points!  The 
Duelmaster isn't going to stop just cause he's Number One!  WURM KIN knows this.  He 
was Dark Arena Challenged by the Duelmaster.  The crowds were amazed this turn, as 
WURM KIN killed the Duelmaster, LUMP, leaving BAD SIGNS in mourning.  SPAWN'S BLUE 
BEER gets to be new Duelmaster.  But doesn't this mean people might try to kill him, 
too?  Is the Duelmaster really being a real snob to his teammates?  Don't ask me!   
     AAARRGH!!!  I HATE SPYREPORTING!!!  Sorry.  I just had to say it.  CHAIN GANG 
was the most avoided team.  Is a 3-7-1 record really that scary?  Is there some deep 
dark secret why SANITARIUM's been avoiding CHAIN GANG so much?  Or is it just that 
they're too scared?  Like, is NECRODANCER popular, or what?  He was challenged the 
most in all of TELORINTHE!  He's got a 3-0-0, is that good?   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All TELORINTHE ever talks about is fighting!  
Me, I'm more laid back.  What a bummer deal for CAUSTIC VEIN!  He just barely was 
getting his "fighter feet" but got kill by GOBLIN of WETWORKS!  Those're the breaks, 
I guess.  What if they had a fight and nobody showed up?  I'd be out of a job, that's 
what!!!   
     Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain.  Soak it in cold water, and hand 
wash.  I gotta leave.  TELORINTHE is like such a dump, and you guys smell too much!  
Its been really albendranius!  Later, guys-- Debby Tonte
