REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER
Hullo!
Well, it seems that Rugen the Jellyfish is now the... invertebrate to beat, and
no one is likely to do it for a bit, eh? RUGEN THE JELLYFISH (82-12478) (44-19-
0,234) of HANNAH'S PALS fought CRYSOPRASE (1-3266) (85-114-2,216) of ILLFANG PACT.
RUGEN THE JELLYFISH devastated CRYSOPRASE in a 1 minute mismatched Title fight.
I'm sorry to report that one young lady was killed in this turn's fights.
COOLER (82-7277) (111-106-1,201) of STYROFOAM fought LAGUNA LIL (7-5681) (29-98-
0,164) of BEACH BABES. COOLER slaughtered LAGUNA LIL in a 1 minute gory uneven duel.
Lil wasn't the Beach Babe who killed someone last week, either, so it's not karma in
any sense. Just unfortunate.
Street Urchins avoided Beach Babes. Well... a bikini has no pockets to pick, I
guess. Then again, considering what happened two weeks ago, I can understand Misfit
wanting to protect the kids from potentially deadly babes. Speaking of which --
Misfit, last turn you let your warriors make two challenges, which was the most
Darkholm has seen for a while. What happened this turn? Has the Darkholm Curse got
its cold grip on you? Meet me at the Black Chalice and I'll buy you a hot toddy.
Anyway, I note that your lads had a 1-2-0 turn this time around, including one loss
to a Beach Babe. Just avoiding isn't enough. They've got to challenge. Of course,
it must be pretty difficult to find people of an appropriate level of experience for
your warriors to challenge... maybe you'd better urge some friends to come to
Darkholm so you've got more to choose from?
Alarond said "A brave warrior does not carry a red shield, he has nothing to
cover or hide when the fight is over." By the same token, I suppose that a brave
warrior does not wear brown pants. I have a nice brown suit, though. Excellently
tailored! The shoulders fit me to a nicety and the hem breaks just right over the
shoe.
Perhaps you felt the shaking last night, and perhaps you thought it was
something else, but there was a biggish earthquake in Talahya. Why did this happen?
Because six people died on the sands. All in the same arena, although not in the
same "arena," if you take my meaning. Since the fights for several different arenas
are held in the same PHYSICAL arena, see? Just on different days. One died in
Crysalis, one in Primus, one in Talahya, two in Andorak... wait, did I miss one?
Because there's that prediction, you know, that "The city will be destroyed if six
die in duels this week." And I thought they had. But maybe not. In any event,
there was a big earthquake. Island quake. Nasty waves on the Lake of Mists, and
all. Fires, baby squids falling from the sky, anything eaten in a picnic that day
was calamari something-or-other. Which, as you may know, is very much an acquired
taste, and some people are allergic. You may have wondered why the inns here in
Willow Beach are unusually full! That's why. At least it means a lot of spectators
for the fights.
Alarond said, "Until you see my quill in Darkholm again, farewell." Does that
sound a bit improper to anyone but me? Maybe I just have an unfortunate turn of
mind, eh?
Well, I shall take my unfortunate turn of mind around the corner to the Black
Chalice now. Anyone is welcome to join me for drinks.
Malic of Talahya

PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE
Kronic Blaze -- Good fight. -- Beach Betty
P.S. I've been told that you guys managed to write the occasional personal back in
Osksi, why not here?
Sex on the Beach -- I'll pass. -- Aloha Alice
P.S. Especially since the earthquake and aftershocks appear to be agitating the
waters a lot. The lake has been clear up over the beach twice that I've seen so far.
And it's got icky stuff in it.
Arsonist Art -- Ah, you light my fire! -- Tallahasse Tina
P.S. Ignore the Commission's insistence that I'm a golem. There isn't a word of
truth in it.
You know, the handicapper could have found a standby nearer to my rank. This is
unjustified hostility. -- Laguna Lil
Miss An Thrope -- Well, I'm sorry, okay? I didn't mean to do that. I meant to
defeat you decisively, of course, but the death was... huh, good thing it didn't
happen up in Talahya, or the earthquakes might have started two weeks ago! -- Miami
Mia
P.S. I didn't mind the first one, we're a long way from the epicenter here, five
miles, I guess? But the aftershocks keep shaking the whole island, and I don't much
like it. I hear there've been a bunch of fires in Talahya, too. Really, what are
they THINKING up there? It's too hot for fires at this season.
Stassia -- Are you kidding me? You hit me in the right arm and I die? I'm going to
pick on someone my own size next time. -- Antagonist
Miami Mia -- I hate you! You need to go back to kindergarten and learn how to play
well with others. -- Miss An Thrope
I had two warriors die this turn. I hope this isn't a trend. -- Misfit
Misfit -- In Darkholm, I've been told, even one death is quite rare. -- Malic
Beach Betty -- Nothing personal. -- Kronic Blaze
Antagonist -- Whoops! Sorry about that. I'm not really interested in killing
anyone. That was an accident. -- Stassia
Smell Carefully -- I see that you got some personal attention from Lady Greywand.
What's she like? -- Crysoprase
