Bahram is setting up a chessboard in the courtyard. It's an expensive marble set, and he seems to be handling it with incredible care. As soon as it is set up, he sits down in front of it and begins to play both sides by himself.
"Now in your back row, you've got a few special pieces." Arman reaches over to Angel's left-most side, and puts his index finger on each piece as he describes it and its uses.
"First we have your rook. This piece moves in straight lines - forward and backward, left and right - as far as it can reach, unless the path is obstructed. Next to it, we have your knight. The knight moves in an L shape, going two spaces in any of the four directions, then one space perpendicular to that. It can hop over other pieces. The bishop is just like your rook, only it moves in diagonals, and the queen is a combination of both the rook and bishop. Your king can move one space in any direction."
"Like checkers, you can take an opponent's pieces by moving onto their spots. The objective, however, is to isolate the opponent's king with whatever you've got left on the board."
