>GREY KNIGHT: Investigate TALL WHITE ROOK's stairway.




What the hell is going on up here?


Looks like the TALL WHITE ROOK and the BLACK ADJUDICATOR are engrossed in an argument. The ADJUDICATOR is complaining that the TALL WHITE ROOK is breaking the rules, and the TALL WHITE ROOK is pointing out that there are no rules. The ADJUDICATOR rebuts that pieces being able to come back from the DEAD is not a rule of the game but a rule of reality. The ROOK doesn't really know what to say, it was able to get up here so obviously it can happen.


The GREY KNIGHT thinks this is all a bunch of nonsense!



On the podium, the BLACK PAWN B draws in a breath. That KNIGHT... Could it be?


>ALL IRRELEVANT PAWNS: Stack together as a display of your STRENGTH IN NUMBERS.



The four unremarkable WHITE PAWNS, tired of their irrelevance, band together to prove their worth.



They stack together to form WHITE PAWNAMID, a structure that is as mighty as it is precarious and slow-moving!


...Maybe it'd be better with some FUSION MAGIC, but still. Who says pawns can't have HEIGHT now, huh?


>HOLE CREW: Continue digging. Dig till you reach the BOTTOM OF THE BOARD!



The BLACK PAWN E pulls up a floor tile and finds empty space underneath. Light shines up from an unknown source below.
