“She had learned to play Chess from the doctor’s approach which was a bit different than the norm; he taught her that competing was for fools and after enjoying Christmas dinner, she was getting ready to play Chess with Valentin and she remembered the doctor’s words, ‘The essence of the game is to develop a strategy to corner the king. Neither of the players is looking out to destroy the king. Bear in mind my dear, the king cannot be held captive, once the king is cornered, the game is over. Every piece is a symbolic member of a kingdom and in course to the objective each piece risks to be held captive; however never destroyed. There would be a tragic situation for a Chess player if a piece belonging to a specific Chessboard is misplaced, much less destroyed. The game of Chess cultivates not destruction but honorable warriors instead. There is a difference between surviving in battle for a humanitarian cause and competing to win for fame or gold. Some might kill one person out of greed in order to win in competition and as a result, they become murderers; whereas great warriors kill hundreds united in battle for a humanitarian cause to defend the weak, and as a result, they become heroes. ’” ~A passage from my Novel, Floranova B.
