She waved at the trunk, and the room that had been stripped of all personal possessions. "You've still got about four weeks or so before you can go, Damoreth." "I'm not taking any chances," he said, bending over to tighten the straps holding his trunk closed. "This isn't the first time Jorja's said I could 'probably' retire. This time, I'm not taking any chances on her changing her mind. It isn't like I'm all that good at it." Darlina shrugged. "That's true, but you know Jorja. The path of least resistance goes a long way with her--" "Right till you run up against something she cares about," Damoreth Stenn agreed. "Which right now seems to be 'over-experienced gladiators in the regional arenas'. I just wish everybody would get the same feeling. LOOK at some of the fossils here! Funny Bunny with over three hundred regular arena fights! What kind of chance do newcomers to the Isle have with the top ranks clogged that way?" Darlina shrugged again. "Cream does rise, even if it has to shrug aside a bunch of deadwood. It just takes a little longer. And you can't blame them for wanting to stay out of Primus. Talk about 'clogged with deadwood', Primus wrote the book on that one!" "They could retire," Stenn said. His voice was muffled because he had stepped into the closet to make sure nothing had been left behind. "That's what I'm going to do," he added, emerging. "And I'm going to enjoy it, too! Some Advanced gladiators SHOULD retire. What's the Grey Witch THINKING, anyway? When there were only a few hundred gladiators, yeah, okay. But there are THOUSANDS now, probably TENS of thousands. The system is like some kind of insane golem spewing out Lord Protectors beyond what anyone could possibly imagine needing." "Oh, I dunno." Darlina sat on the bed, folding her legs under her and propping her elbows on her knees. "A good-sized army of Lord Protectors might be a formidable tool." "Yeah, right, like they've ever been trained to work together?" "The Grey Witch must know what conditions she needs to prepare for," Darlina argued. "Okay, I grant you that. But what *I* need to prepare for is a winter of hard work on the coast of Dal Shang. I'm looking forward to it." * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * ---===FREE BLADES REGIONAL NEWS===--- Duelmasters ----------- DM 9 ZUKAL (turn 578): ULTORINO of BLUE MOON (Jorja, mgr.)

DM 78 LIN TIRIAN (turn 359): MIRIAL ADAMANT of SAND DANCERS (Jorja, mgr.) REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER It's cloudy today! Yes, I know, it's, like, the season for that. But I don't have to like it! How can I work on my tan if the sky is covered with clouds? A good tan takes constant attention, you know. Well, I guess if I can't work on my tan, I can tell you some things about the fights. The most avoided team was Eastern Horde 2, and it was Hounds of Hell that avoided them most. Mojo-Jojo got the most challenges. We had thirty fights, with only one standby, which is good. The other regionals can't show that. And thirteen challenges, two of them tv and the rest radio. And I don't think anyone died, but I forgot to ask the Infirmary people, so we'll just have to go through it all to make sure. HELEN OF TROY (8-4603) (14-7-0,41) of DAPHNE'S LADIES fought BITTER ALMOND (103- 41) (14-16-4,50) of the College of Mimes. HELEN OF TROY handily defeated BITTER ALMOND in a 1 minute mismatched match. This was the only standby out there, and he's in a bad mood because of losing, so don't sit down next to him at the bar. RUDRA (82-5565) (14-14-1,64) of DEATH HORDE IV fought COMRADE KOOK (12-6339) (27-22-1,85) of CULTS-R-US. RUDRA overpowered COMRADE KOOK in a popular 1 minute one-sided bout. I guess Death Hordes don't need cults, or else, you know, they're cults already and don't like to share. Some cults are that way, I don't know why. ALDALDON (56-3913) (19-9-1,99) of PHILANTHROPISTS fought MOUSE NOYLE (17-6252) (51-81-0,77) of MIDDLE WAY. ALDALDON was luckily beaten by MOUSE NOYLE in an exciting 2 minute gory match. Aha, your problem, Al, was that you got the Mouse when he was, like, totally enraged. You've heard about a Mouse that roared? Well, he was probably a gladiator Mouse. COLOSSUS (22-5820) (24-13-0,116) of BLADES OF WONDER fought NYZEIL OGLATA (17- 6753) (22-10-1,96) of PHILANTHROPISTS. COLOSSUS was overpowered by NYZEIL OGLATA in an action packed 1 minute uneven fight. People warned me about this. Colossuses, they said, always fall down sooner or later, so don't stand too close. As if I would! I mean, I may be blonde, but I'm not stupid, you know! ENLIGHTENED BEING (26-4642) (27-11-0,170) of PHILANTHROPISTS fought MAGGIE (55- 637) (28-37-1,139) of THE SIMPSONS. ENLIGHTENED BEING overpowered MAGGIE in an exciting 1 minute uneven competition. I've heard Kung-Fu Masters talk about this. About being enlightened, you know, and how that makes you horribly powerful and you have lights flashing in your head. It must be why they're so nasty. You couldn't get any sleep if you had lights flashing in your head. BIONIC BUFFALO (11-6570) (33-20-0,177) of DO IT AGAIN fought DRIZZT (40-4146) (29-29-0,171) of PHILANTHROPISTS. BIONIC BUFFALO handily defeated DRIZZT in a 1 minute uneven bout. I knew a buffalo once, but he wasn't bionic. He was organic, and he had wings. Lots of little wings all the way down his sides. It looked weird, but I guess they helped him keep the flies off. That's a problem buffaloes have, you know. Flies. PARTY'S OVER (75-2179) (42-33-0,210) of EASTERN HORDE fought SISTER X (12-6340) (27-21-0,183) of CULTS-R-US. PARTY'S OVER overpowered SISTER X in an exciting 1 minute gruesome uneven match. It was too bad. I mean, there was Sister X dancing, and it was, like, totally albendranious. And then Party came along and made her stop. JAMMIES (74-2829) (111-93-1,199) of DARKLINGS fought WWW.QUAM.COM (82-4467) (32- 38-4,180) of EASTERN HORDE 2. JAMMIES defeated WWW.QUAM.COM in a popular 1 minute duel. It's the off-hand teddy bear. Nobody has an attack that can get past it. You think that's a joke? As if! Ask any kid, and he'll tell you that the teddy bear can even defeat monsters from under the bed. NIGHTCAP (74-2745) (121-110-0,201) of DARKLINGS fought SCOOBY DOOM (12-6021) (29-22-1,178) of HOUNDS OF HELL. NIGHTCAP defeated SCOOBY DOOM in an exciting 1 minute duel. I don't think it's a Good Thing to give dogs sleeping potions. Only Thieves and stuff do that. JULIUS (64-3641) (119-126-2,207) of UNDER DURESS fought NIGHTFALL (74-2421) (150-118-5,195) of DARKLINGS. JULIUS was devastated by NIGHTFALL in a popular 1 minute one-sided bout. Well, you know how it goes. They're both fossils. At least they're fighting each other and not new arrivals. SUPERIOR FORCES (33-4543) (103-144-2,203) of DUPLICATE REDUNDANCY fought MIMOSA (32-4294) (23-18-1,187) of PHILANTHROPISTS. SUPERIOR FORCES overcame MIMOSA in an action packed 2 minute duel. Yes, well, I've got a whole box full of "spoke too soon" stuff. This is just more of it. Too bad, Mimosa, but you have to remember the umbrella. That makes all the difference. SMUG BUG (55-2900) (67-132-0,210) of RHYME TYME fought YAMA (82-11638) (18-12- 0,167) of DEATH HORDE VI. SMUG BUG overpowered YAMA in an exciting 1 minute gory uneven fight. Somehow it always surprises me that Smug only has, umm, I guess now it's two hundred, fights. It feels like we've been watching the bug forever. FUNNY BUNNY (55-1862) (147-157-2,205) of RHYME TYME fought AZREAL ELS III (4- 4482) (26-20-2,169) of EASTERN HORDE. FUNNY BUNNY overcame AZREAL ELS III in a crowd pleasing 1 minute competition. But, you know, not as long as we've been watching the Funny Bunny do those really-dumb-after-the-forty-third-time rabbit jokes. I mean, he's only got three jokes, and there must be more! SANGUINE (40-4135) (28-13-1,183) of BLOOD ANGELS fought TRYURLUCK (61-1029) (115-81-1,192) of BLOOD KNIGHTS. SANGUINE was overpowered by TRYURLUCK in a popular 1 minute one-sided bout. I don't know why this was so popular. I didn't like it. There was too much blood around. Soaking in cold water isn't much fun when the weather gets cold, you know. AHRINGOL (33-5726) (22-11-0,203) of DEATH HORDE fought DAMORETH STENN (65-6105) (64-95-1,152) of SAND DANCERS. AHRINGOL devastated DAMORETH STENN in an exciting 1 minute brutal one-sided brawl. But at least Ahringol didn't kill Damoreth. Of course, he wouldn't. Ahringol, I mean. He isn't a god of killing, you know, he's a god of people who are already dead, to take care of them. And besides, Ahringol likes to ski, too, and Damoreth did say he's going to put a ski lodge at his resort. KYRLANIA (70-2327) (114-124-1,233) of SCARLET KNIGHTS fought TAIRIKIA (51-4247) (126-101-2,199) of SAND DANCERS. KYRLANIA was overcome by TAIRIKIA in a crowd pleasing 1 minute bout. Which is probably why Tairikia is getting Inducted. I wonder if Kyrlania is, too? WE LIKE THE MOON (25-5013) (39-26-4,216) of SPONGMONKEYS fought TRASH QUAM (19- 3751) (34-27-2,207) of EASTERN HORDE 3. WE LIKE THE MOON lost to TRASH QUAM in a crowd pleasing 3 minute gruesome bout. So does this mean that Trash Quam likes the sun, or something? I never understood that bit about liking the moon. It's like saying, well, we like air to breathe. I mean, the moon is just THERE, you know? What's to like or not like? Oh! Here are the challenge matches already! I guess time just gallops along when you're having fun with friends. BARBARIAN KNIGHT (56-2006) (27-13-2,172) of KNIGHTS OF ROCANIS challenged D (82- 44) (25-18-0,173) of EASTERN HORDE 4. Up 1. BARBARIAN KNIGHT overpowered D in a popular 1 minute mismatched Challenge conflict. How could this be mis-matched? It looked pretty even to me. MALT-O-MEAL (60-7527) (27-12-1,179) of CHILDHOOD TRAUMA challenged DARLINA (74- 2995) (66-73-4,187) of SAND DANCERS. Up 8. MALT-O-MEAL was handily defeated by DARLINA in a 2 minute one-sided Challenge contest. No, I'm not seeing this. Malt-o- meal isn't a trauma, it's good. You put butter and brown sugar on it, and cream. NOREASTER (35-3896) (31-16-1,208) of DIRT DEVILS challenged ANTHRAXUS (33-5723) (31-21-1,201) of DEATH HORDE. Down 7. NOREASTER was overpowered by ANTHRAXUS in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge fight. This is why people gamble on the fights, I guess. I mean, who'd've guessed this one would turn out like it did? Even the bookies were surprised, and they usually KNOW. MORLENA (56-2163) (22-12-1,182) of KNIGHTS OF ROCANIS challenged REDFOX (13- 4197) (80-126-1,194) of CARDOW HUNTERS. Up 12. MORLENA was beaten by REDFOX in a 2 minute Challenge melee. Shouldn't a female knight be a knightess? I'm just guessing about Morlena being female. KING LOVE (40-3748) (64-47-2,190) of GARDEN OF HORRORS challenged T-BONE (13- 3139) (48-34-0,200) of LEGION OF DUMB. Up 10. KING LOVE vanquished T-BONE in a popular 1 minute one-sided Challenge duel. There's probably a message here, but I'm not listening. SAMARIUM (75-3071) (38-24-1,196) of I AM SAM challenged HARVESTER OF PAIN (56- 1412) (32-31-4,197) of KNIGHTS OF ROCANIS. Up 1. SAMARIUM vanquished HARVESTER OF PAIN in a popular 1 minute uneven Challenge duel. This kind of thing makes it difficult for Harvester to do his job. You should remember that, Sam. Because I'm not sure he can harvest his own pain. DARK JUSTICE (56-2004) (24-17-0,196) of KNIGHTS OF ROCANIS challenged THE QUICKLING (70-1669) (77-173-2,201) of SCARLET KNIGHTS. Up 5. DARK JUSTICE was defeated by THE QUICKLING in a 1 minute Challenge melee. Well, darn. For some reason, this Quickling dude just annoys me, almost as much as Royland. Huh, I haven't seen Royland lately. I wonder if he's gotten sucked off to Primus? If so, good! LIMA BEAN FLAMBE (70-3118) (46-35-0,246) of HEAVE HO! challenged MOJO-JOJO (12- 3867) (51-41-1,220) of EASTERN HORDE. Down 26. Mojo-Jojo was most challenged, remember? I said that way back at the beginning. LIMA BEAN FLAMBE bested MOJO-JOJO in an action packed 2 minute gory Challenge brawl. Was anybody surprised? Honk if your horn works. DARTMAN (33-7161) (61-26-3,253) of COLGATE DAYS challenged CORT NIGHTJEWEL (78- 196) (87-123-0,212) of THE DRAGON FIST. Down 41. DARTMAN devastated CORT NIGHTJEWEL in an exciting 2 minute one-sided Challenge fight. Well, good. I'm anti-fossil. I can't help it, and if the fossils at least talked some, it would probably make a difference, but there it is, after two hundred fights, I just get tired of watching the same old gladiators, you know? Nothing personal. REQUIEM (11-4472) (37-28-0,214) of BALLAD OF THE BLADE challenged ALVIN (16- 3927) (56-32-1,217) of AARON'S ANGELS. Up 3. REQUIEM was demolished by ALVIN in a crowd pleasing 1 minute uneven Challenge fight. Angels are tough cookies. Probably stirred too much, and they could use another egg, too. Our two tv challenges, and congratulations to the gladiators that have them. SAMURAI (75-3119) (17-7-1,98) of I AM SAM TV challenged JADRA (61-3379) (20-4- 1,138) of PHILANTHROPISTS. Up 40. SAMURAI vanquished JADRA in a 1 minute uneven Challenge battle. Wow, that's powerful! That's what a tv means, I guess. CORRUPTION (82-22745) (17-5-0,157) of THE BROTHERHOOD 40 TV challenged MILLHOUSE (55-1324) (20-15-0,168) of THE SIMPSONS. Up 11. CORRUPTION devastated MILLHOUSE in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge fight. That's really showing your stuff. Good going! And for the title: NEBUCHADNEZZAR (22-5821) (66-51-0,253) of BLADES OF WONDER challenged ROCK A BYE (33-4653) (57-36-4,300) of EASTERN HORDE. Up 47. NEBUCHADNEZZAR devastated ROCK A BYE in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge Title match. Congratulations to Neb, and remember to come to the party at the Red Sands, where you get free pretzels with your beer.

THE DEAD W L K TEAM NAME SLAIN BY TURN PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE Dartman -- Oh, fine. That's just great. The same day I find out I'm due to be Inducted, I get two-shotted by a nasty-tempered tube of toothpaste. Gods. There are days when I wonder why I ever decided to become a gladiator. But one thing I *do* know is that I'm not going to Primus. No way! Retirement for me. -- Tairikia P.S. Sorry, must've gotten up on the wrong side of the bed today. Next time (tomorrow), I'll be sure to get up on the sunny side. P.P.S. Maybe I'll go help Damoreth with his "resort." I don't much care for fish, but hunting... yeah, I could get into that. Noreaster -- (shivering) We're having one of those. And it's darned cold. Well, okay, but the standards of the pit of winter, it's almost balmy, but this isn't the pit of winter, so forget "balmy." -- Darlina Funny Bunny -- Three hundred regular-arena fights. (sigh) If gladiators can get hauled off to the Isle merely for having one hundred regular fights, don't you think one could get automatically booted into Primus for having three hundred? I wonder if anyone has put this point to the Commission? Regardless, I am retiring, and then I'm going into HIDING before my manager drafts me into some dumb adventure. -- Redfox Enlightened Being -- (heavily skeptical look) And you're a gladiator? Why do I find this seriously contradictory? -- Damoreth Stenn Nyzeil Oglata -- You did that on purpose! You were jealous of my personal splendor, of the way they always looked up to me back in Aljafir, and you deliberately arranged that it would be ME who had to report to Jorja that we went oh-fer this time. Well, listen up, coughdrop, I'm going to GET you. -- Mouse Noyle LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS CORRUPTION devastated MILLHOUSE in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge fight.
