SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! Practice pays for BRUCE, who pummelled CULT MEMBER, to pocket 15
points. A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after
losing 6 points to TIMOTHY. (Discrete enough, TURIALBA?) HAYSTACK found out that
ARDIVENT isn't a democracy. You've gotta be the best to be Duelmaster here! Word
has it one team in ARDIVENT is taking speech lessons to try to bore their opponent to
death. I'll bet it works.
And how sociable are ARDIVENT's warriors? Come, let us see. Perhaps the
warriors of GENERATION D should take up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided
team... Like a pup with its tail between its legs, FANDILS scurried away from
GENERATION D. Oh, the shame!
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Questions are
being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the arena. A certain
tavern in ARDIVENT would I avoid!
Do not think spyreporting in ARDIVENT is the highlight of my life. More
important duties call me. ARDIVENT, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to
foot my bill at The Seaside Manor. 'Til next time-- Novgorodny Vir
