                                      SPY REPORT

     The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon TRANSEL, for 
I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned!  PSYCHO SQUAD had cause to celebrate, after 
FOREVERMORE got 20 points by beating EMBEZZLING SCRIBE.  DOLFIN certainly had a 
baffled expression on his face, after losing to OAK and losing 9 points in the 
process!  Can you believe it?  PYROFROG apparently has better things to do as 
TRANSEL's Duelmaster than show up and fight!  In TRANSEL, nothing is permanent 
(except Death), and we find ourselves a new Duelmaster, LESATH.  So who was the 
warrior seen charging into immovable walls and challenging dead trees?  Someone's got 
a basic problem...   
     And how sociable are TRANSEL's warriors?  Come, let us see.  Like a horde of 
jackals fleeing from the lion, so did the "warriors" in TRANSEL avoid DOWN HOME 
BLUES.  As a woman of good breeding scorns the "warriors" of LANCIARII, so did that 
sorry team shy from DOWN HOME BLUES If challenges were horses, BLUE FLY could open up 
a fast food joint!  Take heed TRANSEL, of the unprincipled action of TWITCH-RAT.  By 
challenging JENNEY SWEET, 21 points below him, TWITCH-RAT besmirches the noble art of 
dueling.  Yes, Virginia, sometimes the little guy wins, as JENNEY SWEET proved, 
beating 21 point higher TWITCH-RAT.  TRANSEL-RAT challenged DERL!  Who says RAT PAK 
are just a bunch of wimps!  TRANSEL-RAT of RAT PAK kept his wits as he beat DERL.   
     Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors.  
Questions are being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the arena.  A 
certain tavern in TRANSEL would I avoid!   
     All good things must come to an end.  As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond 
my control, I must take my leave of this place.  Do not despair!  I shall return!--
