                                      SPY REPORT

     Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in VEASTIAN this turn, and let's 
start with a look at some of the teams.  It seems the training can make the 
difference, as FLYING CIRCUS II is pushed out of top team by DUREX 100, who came from 
2nd with a 3-2-0 this turn.  And let's see, F-SHANA fought ARTHUR LEMMING BDA and 
gained 25 points and contributed to GUARDIANS' 5-0-1.  ARTHUR LEMMING BDA has lost to 
F-SHANA, falling 20 points, while helping make FLYING CIRCUS II a 1-4-0 turn.  This 
turn FARAH challenged HIPPO SWAN in what was VEASTIAN's Title bout.  The attempts to 
dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and FARAH remains VEASTIAN's top warrior for 
another turn.  Tell me, is nothing sacred?  I have heard from unimpeachable sources 
that The Dripping Blade uses trolls in their stew.  Talk about gristle!   
     Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.' 
Inscrutable, but true.  PRIDE OF ALASTARI has cause to stand tall, as they were 
VEASTIAN's most avoided team.  A smart manager knows this is a team to beat.  And 
avoiding PRIDE OF ALASTARI more than any other team we find FAR TRAVELERS.  VEASTIAN, 
are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing?  The most challenged warrior 
this turn was THE FAMILY's warrior HIPPO SWAN.  More fighters challenged him than 
challenged the Duelmaster!  In a brave attempt, CHIPPA KEMNAC from PRIDE OF ALASTARI 
challenged up 19 points to fight INGOT from the DUREX 100 stable.  CHIPPA KEMNAC 
perhaps got his just desserts, seeing as he was beat by INGOT and ended up with 23 
recognition points.   
     We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and 
shave it close?  Whatever bright future MELLIFLUOUS may have had, it's all history 
now.  The manager of FAR TRAVELERS has lost a promising 4-2-1 warrior.  We'd like to 
remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their enemies.  You know who you are; 
and it's considered rude.   
     I like this place, VEASTIAN, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls. 
Who could ask for more?  It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep 
your swords sharp and your hammers heavy.  Until you see my quill in VEASTIAN again, 
farewell-- Alarond the Scribe
