Hoping that a thousand years from now, a thousand or more chess pieces will end up in a museum somewhere, and someone with oh such great interest with a pile age old chess pieces will "accidentally" undo the spell. A one way spell? Is that it? Mage is like "OPPS I FORGET, SO I'LL WAIT FOR CHESS NERD IN MUSUEM TO FIX IT, K? LOL"
Don't judge my idea yet bro.

Powerchess already won third prize as most outstanding creative research in 2001 during Filipino Invention Exposition. It is an award winning original filipino board game.

Anyway, it was not the whole kingdom that were saved.
They were the only survivor(powerchess pieces).
Everyone else were slaughtered.
In this story the mage only saved 8 heroes, king and queen with the bishops, knights and rooks (chariot riders) and 8 loyal pawns out of nine.
the nineth pawn took care of the "powerchest".
but since T in their language looks like slanted S, when the T was loose it slanted and the whole sign read like powerchess.
