                             Notes from the arena champ.

Once again, I reign as the best of a bunch of losers. Ragamuffins, one and all. Can't 
even one of you crawl your way into the Challenger Champions, or is that too much to 
ask of scurvy varmints that inhabit Rocanis?  Which one of you slug-a-beds is the 
Commission going to match me against next turn? We'll see.

Until next time, may the gods make your weapons slip from your clumsy hands!

                                          -- Venomous Cur, your Duelmaster

                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, in ROCANIS a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor.  
So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news.  And let's see, GHOULIA fought 
FAITHFUL SORROW and gained 20 points and contributed to ALLIANCE's 2-2-0.  FAITHFUL 
SORROW has lost to GHOULIA, falling 10 points, while helping make HDT SERVICE 06 a 
0-1-0 turn.  The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and VENOMOUS CUR 
remains ROCANIS' top warrior for another turn.  Tell me, is nothing sacred?  I have 
heard from unimpeachable sources that The Wanton Troll uses trolls in their stew.  
Talk about gristle!   
     The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more 
could a warrior ask of life?  Well, besides that.  I also notice that the ALLIANCE 
stable was the most avoided team this turn.  Come on ROCANIS, what are you afraid of? 
And guess who avoided ALLIANCE stable the most?  Believe it or not, it was HDT 
SERVICE 06.  Anyone surprised?   
     We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and 
shave it close?  We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their 
enemies.  You know who you are; and it's considered rude.   
     Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the 
sweetest.  It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your swords 
sharp and your hammers heavy.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper-- 
Alarond the Scribe
