REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER
Hullo there!
Do you know that practically nothing happened around here on this fight day? No
challenges, no avoids, no deaths... no way to stay awake. *yawn*
Stassia got inducted, I know this because I heard her moaning and cursing about
it in the Chalice. Other people probably got inducted, too, but they took it like...
well, like silent people.
There was a title fight. Stassia's teammate, Crysoprase, was in it, but didn't
win. RUGEN THE JELLYFISH (82-12478) (82-26-0,315) of HANNAH'S PALS fought CRYSOPRASE
(1-3266) (111-133-3,217) of ILLFANG PACT. RUGEN THE JELLYFISH devastated CRYSOPRASE
in a 1 minute mismatched Title fight. Rugen is still our top Lunger. Which is
strange. I can't really picture an invertebrate lunging. Not that the actual
gladiator is an invertebrate, of course, but the name doesn't seem to match.
Crysoprase is still our top Parry-Striker.
Novgorodny Vir managed to get a little bit excited about today, so here is what
he said:
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! Practice pays for HENDRIX, who pummelled KATIRONA MURH, to pocket 27
points. Win some, lose some. Speaking of which, OLD SAILMAKER was winsome, after
beating ZANE GREY and seeing him lose 39 points. Those who hoped for a new
Duelmaster were disappointed by CRYSOPRASE, of ILLFANG PACT, who despite a 111-134-3
couldn't overcome DARKHOLM's Number 1. So who's the team that's been walking into
taverns last week and ordering milk? Sounds like a PR stunt to me.
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas?
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Ask not a spymaster
for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen into an unconscious
stupor.
All good things must come to an end. As the seasons change, and the creatures
of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave this place. DARKHOLM, I
leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Goodeve Tavern.
'Til next time-- Novgorodny Vir
All right, let's examine the fights Vir mentioned.
HENDRIX (42-4594) (15-6-0,60) of SHREDDERS fought KATIRONA MURH (5-4929) (45-33-
2,90) of THE MIDDLE WAY 5. HENDRIX viciously subdued KATIRONA MURH in a popular 3
minute gruesome bout. Yup.
ZANE GREY (21-4810) (31-63-2,168) of AUTHORS fought OLD SAILMAKER (104-7) (0-0-
0,110) of THE DARK ARENA. ZANE GREY was vanquished by OLD SAILMAKER in an action
packed 1 minute one-sided duel. *winces* Embarrassing to lose to an old guy. At
least he wasn't lame or blind.
Of course, our Overall Popularity Leader is still ??Radar??, who is also our top
Wall of Steel. TASHI'SINDAR (1-3249) (72-52-3,197) of STORM RIDERS II fought
??RADAR?? (82-20310) (91-100-1,206) of DYSLEXICS UNTIE! II. TASHI'SINDAR was
overpowered by ??RADAR?? in an action packed 1 minute uneven melee.
I guess that's it. If any of you wants to hear me report on something in
particular, say so!

PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE
Malic -- "Cue ominous music"? It is to laugh! -- Hikaran Daal
Malic -- Try getting up earlier and eating (instead of drinking) your breakfast.
This is my third turn present in this sequence of fights. I was, of course, present
often much earlier. But retirement palls, you know. -- Elayron
P.S. I don't think being Keeper of the Runeblade would have agreed with me. I'm
allergic to runeblades.
Then, we have something to celebrate! *raises glass*
Smell Carefully -- Who authorized such chemical weapons in this arena? It's
infamous! -- Hikaran Daal
Mikel -- I curl my lip at you. I parried, I riposted, and down you went. Ha! --
Jammy Larke
Zane Grey -- You should consider devoting your efforts to writing stories for us
rather than to fighting. Your stories are, perhaps, a bit florid, but that is very
much in keeping with the arena mentality. -- Tashi'Sindar
Mark -- Well well, two rare parry-styles. It was a pleasure to fight you. --
Crysoprase
