FIGHTERS GUILD FACES TOUGH COMPETITION<BR>
<DIV align="left">
<IMG src="Book/fancy_font/t_52x61.dds" width=52 height=61>he Fighters Guild has been an institution in Tamriel for as long as most anyone can remember. These brave men and women have, for countless years, always been available to do those jobs that the average citizen is simply not qualified to handle. Whether it be ridding a homeowner of a plague of rats or rescuing a wayward scholar, the Fighters Guild has always been available for anyone with enough coin to pay their modest fees. Now, however, it seems that the Fighters Guild is not the only game in town.
<p>
A new group has recently been making a lot of waves in Cyrodiil. They call themselves the Blackwood Company, and they've let it be known that they'll handle any job that the Fighters Guild will, and many that they won't.
<p>
While the Fighters Guild has always maintained the strictest standards on both the quality of their members and the legality of the contracts they accept, the Blackwood Company makes none of the same claims. They have no screening process when accepting new members, and they seem willing to accept any contract, assuming one can afford the price tag.
<p>
Some have questioned the Blackwood Company's methods. They are rumored to be reckless and indiscriminant. Many have spoken of needless damage to person and property during the fulfillment of a contract. None of those we spoke to were willing to go on the record for this article.
<p>
What the future holds for this upstart group remains to be seen. Are they the perfect solution for a quickly changing world? Will their methods force the Fighters Guild to adopt more lenient business practices? Only time will tell. Until then, if you need a job done, and the Fighters Guild won't do it, check with your local Blackwood Company!

Fighters_Guildの好敵手、現る<BR>
<DIV align="left">
<IMG src="Book/fancy_font/f_59x61.dds" width=59 height=61>ighters_Guildは、Tamrielの住人なら誰もが一度は耳にした事がある組合だろう。勇敢なギルド員たちが、一般市民の手に負えない仕事を長年にわたって請け負ってきた。ネズミの被害に苦しむ家主であろうと、気まぐれな学者の救出だろうと、Fighters_Guildは、誰にでも払える手ごろな料金で依頼を請け負ってきた。しかしながら、今や、Fighters_Guildは苦境を迎えているようだ。
<p>
今日、ある新しい団体が、Cyrodiilに波紋を投じている。Blackwood_Companyを名乗るその団体は、Fighters_Guildが扱わない依頼も請け負う事で、その名を広めている。
<p>
Fighters_Guildは常に厳格な基準を設けて、メンバーの質と依頼の合法性の2点を審査してきたが、Blackwood_Companyにそう言った基準は存在しない。新規メンバーへの審査手順はなく、報酬さえ見合えば、どんな依頼だろうと請け負うようだ。
<p>
Blackwood_Companyのこうしたやり方には疑問の声も上がっており、善悪の見境がないのではないかとも噂されている。依頼を遂行する上で、人や物に不必要な損害を与えているという話も多い。この件について取材したが、進んで証言しようとする者は一人もいなかった。
<p>
急成長を遂げたこの集団を待ち受ける未来は、いまだ定かではない。急速に変化しつつある世界へ順応なのか？彼らのやり方によって、Fighters_Guildは基準緩和を余儀なくされるのだろうか？時が経てば分かるだろう。その時が来るまで、Fighters_Guildが請け負わない依頼は、手近なBlackwood_Companyに問い合わせる事になるだろう。
