"Close," the voice says.

Perhaps another try?

Okay, that was a terrible move.

Harvey had only played a few games of chess and he had always been bad at it. But rather than try to improve his game, he had gone the opposite direction by focusing on Gobstones. And Quidditch. Well, since he hadn’t mind the game for this activity, he was going to royally bumble his way through it. With the board back in its original setting, he studied the set up once more, trying - but not exactly busting his brain - to recall the little he knew about chess.

The Ravenclaw knew what the goal of chess was - to trap the opponent’s King. But what were the moves of the other pieces? He knew some only moved in certain directions. “Um. C2 to C4?” That particular pawn had not yet moved which meant that it could move forward two paces now. If Harv remembered correctly.
