SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of JHELUM! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes,
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team UTOPIA RELIGIOSO was
unseated this week as POTTERY WORLD moved up from 3rd ranking to take the top spot
with a 4-1-0 record for the round. There were bitter words at DOGS OF WAR's
guildhouse after a 0-3-0 showing this week which dropped the stable into 14th. Dark
Arena anyone? Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner! Witness
how this week SONGS OF THE WOOD went 4-1-0 to move up 3 in the rankings. Did only my
eyes note the 4-1-0 record which POTTERY WORLD managed to post this round? I don't
doubt that such a record will draw challengers! SEVERA caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as she skillfully bested CARRAGEENAN and was awarded 25
points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, SEVERA put down
CARRAGEENAN, causing her to lose 16 points of recognition in the process. This time
out LEAKY CAULDRON made its bid for the throne as it challenged TIGER II in an all
out contest of skill for possession of the title! The city has turned out in honor
of LEAKY CAULDRON, for with its arena victory it may now lay claim to the highest
position in the city! Heed this! A seer has warned that if exactly 6 die in duels
this week, the whole city shall perish! Just remember...5 or 7!
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. My inside sources tell me that the
team to beat in JHELUM these days is TANKS FOR NOTHIN'. At least, most blades in
town are looking to avoid them. Methinks more than a few here could name the guild
it was that spent the better part of last week avoiding TANKS FOR NOTHIN'. Indeed it
was SONGS OF THE WOOD. Loose talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but
confirms the knowledge that many fighters are after LEAD BALLOON. Watch your back!
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? Some say a warrior is judged by the way he bears arms. One thing
is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in JHELUM. Nice atmosphere you have here! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of
a far off city calling to me. I must away! Till next we meet remember - the pen is
mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
