                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings warriors!  It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the 
clash and bustle of the weekly JHANS games.  Former top team TANKS FOR NOTHIN' was 
unseated this week as THE WHISPERS moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot 
with a 2-3-0 record for the round.  Warriors--remember that glory waits always around 
the corner!  Witness how this week EMU'S STRAIN went 3-2-0 to move up 3 in the 
rankings.  My praise to IRON DAMSELS for their 5-0-0 week this time out.  Indeed, it 
was a skillfully fought round deserving of notice!  UMBRALIS caught the eye of many 
in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested SYAN-LIN and was awarded 24 
points in recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, ENVY put down 
SAINT-CHAMOND, causing her to lose 11 points of recognition in the process.  As is 
fitting, the most sought after warrior on the challenge boards this week was none 
other than Duelmaster SLETTU herself.  Who here was not present for the title fight 
this week as MIKE VADNER boldly challenged SLETTU in order to strive for the 
Duelmasters honors?  Although MIKE VADNER made a valiant effort, it did not suffice 
to topple the reign of victorious SLETTU.  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.  I saw one fighter that warriors 
avoided when this week's challenge seeking began.  EMU'S STRAIN is feared.  This much 
I can say.  Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was that spent the 
better part of last week avoiding EMU'S STRAIN.  Indeed it was CLAN BATTLEAXE.   
     Vendettas.  Bloodied blades and broken spears.  Indeed the city has seen more 
than its fair share of red in recent times.  Dark alleys may hide both secrets and 
assassins.  In the arena there is only the brightness of steel.  Keep vigil always!   
     The girls are as pretty in JHANS as ever I remembered them....and the fighters 
as ugly!  Don't let your reputation slip!  More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed 
a stout pair of legs must I keep as well!  The endless paths of Alastari await me!  
Till next we meet remember:  a fool flies into a rage quickly and often.  The wise 
are angered by the same thing only once.  Zontani Sharp Eyes
