With a little ingenuity, some flat stones and a pen, Shelley had managed to make a substitute chess board - each stone marked according to the piece it is to represent. K for king, Q for queen, lots of small P's. She had run through all the moves carefully, and moved directly on - she has no doubt that he will remember. Not that she minds if he makes mistakes...

"The King cannot be taken, only rendered immobile, which would be the object of the game. All the others can. If you get a pawn to the opposite side of the board after your Queen has been taken, you can exchange the two and get her back."

Shelley deliberates, eyeing her makeshift board thoughtfully.

"Um. I'll think if there's anything I've missed. Want to ask anything?"
