REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER Greetings, fighters of Darkholm! Galen Shanmarrik here; I've traded duties with Prince Malic for a cycle since I needed a few free days at the beginning of last week. Hmm. Fifteen fights, ten of which involved a stand-in. That means just twenty gladiators fought this turn. I see two people who made it onto both the popularity and unpopularity lists, and that's not supposed to happen. Rather than picking out the more significant fights, I might as well mention them all. ZAKAU (5-4623) (65-67-0,201) of JOHNS fought TOLAIS DEEPHEART (42-1620) (143- 152-0,187) of HIGHLANDERS. ZAKAU slimly lost to TOLAIS DEEPHEART in a crowd pleasing 2 minute Title fight. It wasn't a bad fight. Zakau is top Lunger, while Ms. Deepheart is top Wall of Steel. MEN WORKING (38-4189) (83-245-1,222) of JUST BECAUSE fought BLIND BEGGAR (104- 26) (40-35-0,200) of the Invincibles. MEN WORKING was demolished by BLIND BEGGAR in a popular 1 minute one-sided melee. Oh, no. And even so, Men Working is our top- ranked Basher, and also the Overall Popularity Leader. CLIVE (6-5215) (57-59-5,200) of THE LADY'S LIST fought LOCAL CONSTABLE (104-22) (0-0-0,181) of the Invincibles. CLIVE was devastated by LOCAL CONSTABLE in a popular 1 minute one-sided contest. Clive has the distinction of finding his name on both the popularity and unpopularity lists. MARK (5-4088) (72-159-3,201) of JOHNS fought SOLACIA (104-24) (68-32-0,225) of the Invincibles. MARK savagely defeated SOLACIA in a crowd pleasing 3 minute gruesome competition. I've heard Solacia is a difficult opponent, so this was well done. And Mark is our highest-ranked Parry-lunger and this cycle's favorite fighter. LENNON (5-4087) (49-51-2,173) of JOHNS fought PELIS THE TRUE (42-3469) (46-62- 0,178) of HIGHLANDERS. LENNON defeated PELIS THE TRUE in an exciting 1 minute struggle. Lennon is top Slasher. Lennon is the other individual who finds himself on the popularity and unpopularity lists at the same time. ZANE GREY (21-4810) (53-86-2,178) of AUTHORS fought ZEUS (62-4010) (40-17-0,149) of LEGION OF LEGEND. ZANE GREY devastated ZEUS in an action packed 2 minute gruesome one-sided competition. Mr. Grey is our top-ranked Striker. JUSTIN (6-6179) (39-62-3,162) of THE LADY'S LIST fought M. CHARDINEE (104-8) (0- 0-0,110) of the Invincibles. JUSTIN was vanquished by M. CHARDINEE in a 2 minute gory uneven duel. Hmm. This was the third stand-in to defeat a ranked gladiator. A bad trend! GAR & BRILL (38-4252) (95-169-2,177) of JUST BECAUSE fought SHEWISH GIANT (104- 25) (0-0-0,181) of the Invincibles. GAR & BRILL vanquished SHEWISH GIANT in a popular 1 minute brutal one-sided duel. Well done! The big Shew is tough. SATCHEL (6-6215) (54-50-2,170) of THE LADY'S LIST fought FATALITY (7-5820) (35- 20-0,148) of BRUTAL LEGION. SATCHEL was handily defeated by FATALITY in a 1 minute one-sided bout. MIKEL (6-6190) (45-53-3,139) of THE LADY'S LIST fought CAPTURED CUTPURSE (104-6) (0-0-0,130) of the Invincibles. MIKEL was demolished by CAPTURED CUTPURSE in a 1 minute mismatched match. 2 + 2 = 4 (38-4190) (58-170-1,139) of JUST BECAUSE fought OLD SAILMAKER (104-7) (0-0-0,110) of the Invincibles. 2 + 2 = 4 was viciously subdued by OLD SAILMAKER in an exciting 2 minute bloody battle. The equation, after losing to a stand-in, was still rated as top Total Parry. HOFFA (5-4299) (24-97-0,142) of JOHNS fought M. CHARDINEE (104-8) (0-0-0,110) of the Invincibles. HOFFA was overpowered by M. CHARDINEE in a popular 2 minute mismatched conflict. PHILTHRY (42-2079) (43-41-0,86) of HIGHLANDERS fought ALOYICIUS (6-5045) (32-66- 2,42) of THE LADY'S LIST. PHILTHRY defeated ALOYICIUS in an action packed 1 minute struggle. Phil is our highest ranked Parry-Striker. HOFFA (5-4622) (44-88-0,26) of JOHNS fought DRUNKEN FISHERMAN (104-1) (20-20- 0,50) of the Invincibles. HOFFA was viciously subdued by DRUNKEN FISHERMAN in a crowd pleasing 6 minute bout. Isn't that the second Hoffa of Johns? HOFFA (5-4348) (26-160-0,56) of JOHNS fought DEBBY TONTE (104-2) (20-30-0,30) of the Invincibles. HOFFA was devastated by DEBBY TONTE in an exciting 1 minute one- sided fight. Debby Tonte, really? I thought she was a spy reporter. Ah, I see, it's just an arena name and someone in a blond wig. It's strange to write for such a small arena. I am Delarquan, as it happens, but I feel more at home in the cosmopolitan environment of Talahya than this sleepy little fishing village. However, it is quite charming in its way, and there really is a beach, with, I understand a protected swimming area, though you wouldn't want to frolic there in this weather. I don't know when we've had a colder winter. Malic will be with you next time. Until then, I hope you all manage to stay warm. Farewell!

THE DEAD W L K TEAM NAME SLAIN BY TURN PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE Zakau -- Amazing comeback! You were about to drop from exhaustion, but you managed one more strike that ended the fight. Wow.

Anyway, well fought. -- Pelis the True Hoffa 4348 -- I think you should retire and let your brother, Hoffa, handle the gladiating. -- Philthry LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS ZAKAU slimly lost to TOLAIS DEEPHEART in a crowd pleasing 2 minute Title fight.
