                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail and well met warriors of AMEN-TEI!  Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp 
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  There were bitter words at 
PHILANTHROPISTS' guildhouse after a 1-0-0 showing this week which dropped the stable 
into 10th.  Dark Arena anyone?  Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the 
corner!  Witness how this week SAFE HAVEN went 2-3-0 to move up 5 in the rankings.  
HOLD caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as it skillfully bested 
AMBITIOUS GUARD and was awarded 18 points in recognition.  In one of the week's more 
notable duels, SCWING put down GROWLSK, causing him to lose 14 points of recognition 
in the process.  This time out SAUTERNES made hers bid for the throne as she 
challenged BRIER THORN in an all out contest of skill for possession of the title!  
The city has turned out in honor of SAUTERNES, for with hers arena victory she may 
now lay claim to the highest position in the city!  Would you believe that over half 
of the old women in AMEN-TEI seem to feel that they could fight better than you 
gladiators?   
     But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades 
that is city AMEN-TEI.  My inside sources tell me that the team to beat in AMEN-TEI 
these days is LIBATIONS 3.  At least, most blades in town are looking to avoid them.  
Apparently the stalwarts of ULFHEDNAR are catching the bulk of jests down at the 
challenging board for their large share of the avoids.  A match that raised a few 
eyebrows at the games this week, it seems that LUCY posted a challenge against the 
more highly recognized INGVAR.  The results, you ask?  Well, the firebrand LUCY beat 
INGVAR.  Remember warriors, this is the discipline of steel.   
     What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his 
foe's mortality?  Walk proud, warriors of ULFHEDNAR!  By striking down CRASH you have 
avenged the honor of your dead.  Your virtue is known to all in AMEN-TEI.  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!   
     The girls are as pretty in AMEN-TEI as ever I remembered them....and the 
fighters as ugly!  Don't let your reputation slip!  Sadly warriors, now longer can I 
keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city.  Depart I must and soon!  Till 
we meet again, remember:  a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no 
one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
