TEAM SPOTLIGHT
From the foreign shores where salt wind bites and steel is the only common language,
they came.
Assassin Nation did not arrive as merchants or pilgrams, nor as hopeful contenders
chasing fame. They arrived as a rumor made real. A quiet ship slipping into an island
harbor under cover of dawn, its hull scarred from unnamed waters and older battles. No
banner was raised until the last moment, and even then, it was not celebratory cloth,
but an identifier: a black-threaded insignia bearing the mark of a blade suspended in
stillness.
Morya was different from the arenas they had known. It did not greet them with
spectacle, but with weight. Stone walls that seemed to remember every cry ever spoken
within them. Sand that held heat like a grudge. The air itself felt watched, as though
the arena was not a place so much as a judgment waiting for combatants to prove they
deserved to remain.
They made camp at the edge of the city's influence, where law thinned and rumors
thickened. No grand declaration was issued. Instead, a simple message was sent ahead
to the arena registrars: Assassin Nation has arrived. We will be taking residence.
That night, as the torches flickered across unfamiliar streets, the fighters of
Assassin Nation gathered in silence. Not for prayer, nor doubt, but for alignment. The
"cheap, moderately palatable wine" Morya was known for was sampled. Blades were
checked. Names were spoken once, then stored away again. In Morya, identity was not
announced. It was revealed, one bout at a time.
By morning, word had already begun to spread. A new stable had entered the arena.
Foreign. Disciplined. Deadly.
Somewhere deep within the stone heart of Morya, the arena seemed to take notice. Like
a beast opening one eye, it was curious to see what had washed up on its shores this
time.
SPY REPORT
Greetings, warriors of MORYA! Once again I've been called out of retirement for
my abilities and insights into Spyreporting. Bein' on top is great while it lasts,
OTTO'S MECHANICS. But how many friends do you have now? Hmmmph! I always thought
OTTO'S MECHANICS was an over-rated team and they proved it with a 2-2-0! ASSASSIN
NATION's walking tall now that they went 5-0-2 their first time out. But we know
what awaits them soon... What's with HARVEST MOON? He actually beat FORTY WHINERS'
GARRAPOLOVE, and walked away with 23 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at
LUNAE MILITES while they watched HARVEST MOON clobber GARRAPOLOVE. He lost 20 points
and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands. Try as he might, BIG BOY wasn't
good enough at persuading KEITH MOON to step down from the Duelmaster's throne...
Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!
No matter the time or place, men will always duel. MORYA thinks LUNAE MILITES
and their 192-184-12 is too much! If at first you don't succeed, give up... In my
day, no team with a 189-182-11 would scare me off! What's the problem, FUTILITY
FORCE? What do people see in WEEP NO MORE? His 14-40-0? DODGE BULLETS ain't
talkin', but he's got 83 points.
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? JAY MCSHAWN of THE BLUES 28 didn't know when to quit. When
you've got a 8-8-1, that's a good sign. Now he's dead. We all knew it had to happen
sooner or later. A warrior can't stick around with a 6-11-1, and CRASHCOURSE easily
took care of JI GAL GIRL. Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many
skills, fight dirty.
Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. Are you
as tired of reading this as I am of writing it? Actually, I guess I'm writing it
before you read it. Oh, well. Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and
good luck. Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen
