SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of RIZTAB! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes,
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Warriors--remember that glory waits always
around the corner! Witness how this week DREAMERS went 5-0-0 to move up 3 in the
rankings. ROUSSEAU caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he
skillfully bested HEZASH THE MOUTH and was awarded 12 points in recognition. In one
of the week's more notable duels, MONTESQUIEU put down KILLER BEE, causing him to
lose 11 points of recognition in the process. Although WASTE OF TIME made a valiant
effort, it did not suffice to topple the reign of victorious DEATH STALKER.
Informants "close" to the city champion have told me that he never fights without
pantyhose on beneath his armor. Watch out!
Many and various are the arts of battle. In RIZTAB "art" is a word that has
long since passed from the language! RIZTAB, city of gladiators! Mighty among the
names of thy guilds is DREAMERS, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly
duels. Apparently the stalwarts of FAR TRAVELERS are catching the bulk of jests down
at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Mighty fighters cannot
but expect competition from those below. NIETZSCHE take warning! You have more than
a few enemies in RIZTAB.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the
miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in RIZTAB. Nice atmosphere you have here! Sadly warriors, now longer can I
keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till
next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different
story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
