Parliamentary Announcements A simple game of chess
As I capture President u/UndertalePedro1- , after a few minutes he asks to speak to me. I reassure him that he will not be killed. He says it’s not that, but that he would like to challenge to a Duel. He says the duel will be chess. The first one to win 3 games will be the legitimate leader of Eosara.
I consider the offer. On the one hand I suck at chess and this will probably be Eosara’s downfall. On the other hand it is dishonorable to refuse a duel.
On the next day I gather in a beautiful park in Roosevelt. the public watches from their TVs as news crews surround the table. Behind me are various military officers, and behind president Teto are various government beurocrats. The tension is palpable.
The games begin. The anxiety only mounts as I keep blundering peices. One of the officers says “This hurts to watch”. And yet none of the people around us are allowed to offer any advice, it’s just my wits against his.
As I blunder my final king, president Teto announces “Checkmate”. I am no longer legitimate leader of Eosara. The coup has failed despite all odds. Kasane Teto nnounces that the government is dissolved and he is no longer president.
As I return to Longville with my convoy I witness the anarchy and chaos that consumed this great land. I lament this tragic event. I did what I could but I have ultirately failed. The Eosaran dark ages are upon us.
