A white square
You are standing on what appears to be a huge chessboard. Everything is
well-lit, but you cannot locate the source of this light. Distances seem
hazy, but occasionally you can catch a glimpse of the "pieces".


The bludgeoned corpse of a white pawn lies here.
The sliced-off leg of a white pawn is lying here.

There is no corpse here to sing your melody over.

The gods give you 10 copper coins for your sacrifice of the corpse of a white pawn.
