                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

Hullo out there!

There were seven fights this turn, one of which involved a stand-in (who won, by the 
way).  Honestly, I don't know how much longer we can go on without being merged with 
Andorak.  I don't mind Andorak.  Although they tend to be frightfully proper chaps.  
Which can be a problem if you feel like collecting policemen's helmets, of course.  
Not that I ever would.  Although they do make nice flower pots.

Let's take a closer look at those fights...

E AHO LAULA (21-4224) (77-44-0,342) of WIDER IS BETTER fought MIKEL (6-6190) (63-69-
3,217) of THE LADY'S LIST.  E AHO LAULA devastated MIKEL in a 1 minute mismatched 
Title fight.  Mr. Laula remains, of course, our Keeper of the Runeblade as well as our 
top-ranked Lunger.  Mikel is our top Slasher, though.

ZAKAU (5-4623) (80-86-0,212) of JOHNS fought WYVERN (33-2457) (33-40-0,187) of 
OBSIDIAN HALL.  ZAKAU lost to WYVERN in an action packed 3 minute brutal battle.  
Wyvern is the arena's best Basher.  Nicely done!  Zakau is this turn's favorite 
fighter.

ZEUS (62-4010) (57-34-0,189) of LEGION OF LEGEND fought PELIS THE TRUE (42-3469) (57-
85-1,163) of HIGHLANDERS.  ZEUS defeated PELIS THE TRUE in a 2 minute duel.  Zeus is 
our most celebrated Wall of Steel, while Mr. True holds no stylemaster honors this 
turn.

STING (10-429) (29-26-2,185) of THE HOLY LEGION fought TOLAIS DEEPHEART (42-1620) 
(165-164-0,198) of HIGHLANDERS.  STING viciously subdued TOLAIS DEEPHEART in a popular 
2 minute gory contest.  No stylemasters in this one, although Ms. Deepheart is the 
overall popularity leader.

ASSUR (18-7821) (75-128-2,198) of ARROGANCE fought GLAMDRING (33-2328) (39-27-1,169) 
of OBSIDIAN HALL.  ASSUR was demolished by GLAMDRING in a 2 minute mismatched 
competition.  Glamdring is the arena's top Total Parry, which I suppose is why the 
fight lasted all of two minutes.  They're usually very quick.

PHILTHRY (42-2079) (64-54-0,165) of HIGHLANDERS fought FATALITY (7-5820) (45-44-0,121) 
of BRUTAL LEGION.  PHILTHRY won victory over FATALITY in a crowd pleasing 2 minute 
fight.  Philthry is top Parry-Strike while Fatality is top Striker.

MAN-MOUNTAIN (7-3853) (20-15-1,23) of WASTELAND II fought INKEEPER'S SON (104-4) (15-
15-0,40) of  .  MAN-MOUNTAIN was beaten by INKEEPER'S SON in a 1 minute brawl.  Man-
Mountain was voted this turn's least favorite fighter, probably because getting beaten 
by the Innkeeper's... oh, that's misspelled, isn't it?  Inkeeper's Son.  Tsk.

Well... I've had very little to say, but that appears to be all there is. Has anyone 
got any ideas for livening this place up?  A party perhaps, or a fair with three-
legged races and all that?

I'm going now, but think about it.  What events would you like to see at a summer 
fair?  In any case, cheerio!

Zakau -- I must say your display was rather flashy, but growing weary 80 seconds into 
the fight?  My friend, you're going to half to do better than that to compete at our

Laula
