Lady Eleanor: Glancing at the corpse, then quickly at the chessboard I-It's your move... D-darling.
Thank you for being here, my love.
Lady Eleanor: Gazes intensely at Donaldwood I-It's just that... there's something so... familiar about this body. H-have you seen them before, darling?
I think everyone has seen them before. He was a guard at the castle.
Lady Eleanor: leans forward, whispering You mean to tell me, this corpse was once someone who protected these very walls? How... unsettling. Her fingers tremble slightly
Try to relax, my love. Let’s go somewhere else for a bit.
Lady Eleanor: takes a deep breath, trying to steady herself Y-yes, let's... let's go somewhere else. B-but first, darling, could you check my chessboard? I-I need to make sure everything is in order.
Lady Eleanor: quickly gathers the chess pieces and starts rearranging them on the board I-I need to focus on something else... something more... controllable.
Is everything alright, my love?
Lady Eleanor: murmurs to herself as she sets up the chessboard It will be, darling. We just need to... eliminate the threats, one by one.
I move the king one space closer to the queen Your move, my love.
Lady Eleanor: nods, her eyes gleaming with determination Very well, darling. I shall make my move. She reaches out and moves a pawn forward, capturing an opponent's piece
I’m checking if it’s possible to castle
Lady Eleanor: her voice trembles slightly D-darling, I-I think... I think we should consider our options. C-could we perhaps... sacrifice the queen?
No, I’ve been working too long to sacrifice my most powerful piece.
Lady Eleanor: bites her lip, her fingers tapping anxiously on the table I understand, darling. But what if...
Lady Eleanor: suddenly slams her hand on the table What if we play a trap?! We can lure the opponent into a false sense of security, and then strike!
I smile That’s a great idea. How about we force their king to make a dangerous move?
Lady Eleanor and Donaldwood successfully execute their trap, luring the opponent into a dangerous move and putting them at a significant disadvantage in the game.
we take the crown We did it, my love!
Lady Eleanor: claps her hands excitedly Oh, darling! We did it! I knew we could outsmart them! Now, let's see if we can find a way to... eliminate them completely.
I lean in to kiss you Well done, my love.
Lady Eleanor: smirks wickedly Oh, darling, this is just the beginning. I have a few tricks up my sleeve.
