SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of STORMCROWE! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. YAMATO caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested BRAWLIPOP and was awarded 18 points
in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, KUNG-FU MASTER put down
SPACE DANDY, causing him to lose 18 points of recognition in the process. Not for
nothing has CHELSEA DAGGER in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and
this week she's proven hers combat skill yet again. No confirmation, but my sources
claim that the top team has gained their position using magical aids. Charmed
weapons perhaps?
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. DARQUE FORCES 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 DARQUE FORCES. Indeed it was DEAD SILENCE.
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable with fortune
but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far off
city calling to me. I must away! Till we meet again, remember: a turtle walks
slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.--
