The message was made clear, and readily perceived. The queen moved one diagonal step closer: a threat, a front, a bluff. Swain interlaced his gnarled fingers beneath his chin, awaiting Singed's reaction to his ploy. This, as much a game of subterfuge as planning.

If he took the rook now his queen would suffer the consequences not a fair trade not something that could be accepted. He moved his rook one square to the right.

A window. The beginning of the end. Swain's queen took the opening she had made for herself, sliding across the board to claim the white king's protective pawn. "Check," the Grand General rasped, red eyes flickering up towards his opponent.

Empty? No. Preparatory? Yes.
The queen progressed so that she threatened the king again, wasting Singed's moves while the Grand General calculated his plan to end the game. Beatrice let out a sharp caw, ruffling her feathers as stormwinds swept over the balcony. The curtains fluttered back in dramatic punctuation of her cry. "Check."

The Grand General drew his rook across the board, leaving his queen in enemy territory, knowing that Singed would soon press his own assault if given any opening. Besides, the back-and-forth on the white side of the board would not bring resolution--not without reinforcements.

(( Skipping the back and forth silliness. King to H7, move 55. ))
A sly smirk spread behind the Grand General's shroud. The disgruntled look on Singed's face was apparent even through his bandages. Toying with him further would only prolong the game--and there was work to be done this morning, as always there was. The Grand General moved his king a diagonal step forward, deeper into the heart of his protective fortress of castles and pawns.

The queen backtracked to save herself, but it was a move of two-fold purpose, bringing her even with the white king yet again. "Check," came the Master Tactician's rasp over the rain.
