Little ceramic pieces of white and black. Board made of wood, decorated with checks. One pawn moves, to a off centre square. With a delicate move, the rival reflects.
It's a great battle, set out on one field. Each player is a king, deciding who moves. They choose who dies, and who gets to kill. Until they have win and their point is prove.
There is checkmate, one side is the best. But this can still be won, by the opposite rival. It just takes one move. And there it is. At least this stalemate means survival.
