                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail and well met warriors of ARADI!  Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes, 
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  ERIC GAGN'EH caught the eye of many in the 
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested HAO LAO LOO and was awarded 22 points 
in recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, ERIC GAGN'EH put down HAO 
LAO LOO, causing him to lose 10 points of recognition in the process.  Not for 
nothing has BEERBARIAN in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this 
week he's proven his combat skill yet again.  Would you believe that over half of the 
old women in ARADI seem to feel that they could fight better than you gladiators?   
     I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently 
transpired.  Indeed there is much I would report.  ARADI, city of gladiators!  Mighty 
among the names of thy guilds is UNNAMEABLES, a guild shunned and avoided by many in 
the weekly duels.  Apparently the stalwarts of INGRATE WHITE NORTH are catching the 
bulk of jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids.  
Loose talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that 
many fighters are after JAWS.  Watch your back!  A match that raised a few eyebrows 
at the games this week, it seems that KEANU R'EHVES posted a challenge against the 
more highly recognized JAWS.  The results, you ask?  Well, the firebrand KEANU 
R'EHVES won victory over JAWS.  Remember warriors, this is the discipline of steel.   
     Vendettas.  Bloodied blades and broken spears.  Indeed the city has seen more 
than its fair share of red in recent times.  Some say a warrior is judged by the way 
he bears arms.  One thing is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt!  
     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 next we meet remember:  a fool flies into a 
rage quickly and often.  The wise are angered by the same thing only once.  Zontani 
Sharp Eyes

I hate biting M. Chardinee.  He's a golem, and he hurts my teeth.  But I know my duty. 
-- Hao Lao Loo

Eric Gagn'eh -- What?  Even though the Commission calls me Raltuman, I'm basically a 
Dog.  A Raltuman Otterhound, in fact.  Figuring out your name is beyond me.  Unless 
you're an otter, and you don't smell like one. -- Jaws

Keanu R'ehves -- Aha!  I won, I learned skills, and my popularity increased.  Life is 
good. -- Spud, Shewish Sheepdog

Jinx Jawcracker -- You shouldn't go around setting traps for Dogs. That's such a 
catlike thing to do. -- the Mutt

Kip Krule -- I bet I would've done better if the Commission didn't call me a dwarf.  
Ridiculous. -- Hunter
