"The Folly of Chivalry"

There are two Easter eggs in the last panel. First, the designs of the chess pieces are taken from my dad's original “Through the Looking Glass” game for the Mac. Second, the position of the pieces is the exact one represented by the characters when Alice checkmates in Lewis Carroll's book “Through the Looking Glass,” only with the black and white suits
reversed, because I didn't feel like coloring all of Chapel's horse black.
