Fein and Markus continued their intense game of chess in the Council's Library, both players strategizing and making bold moves in an attempt to gain the upper hand. After a series of tense standoffs and strategic sacrifices, Fein made a critical mistake, leaving his king vulnerable to attack. Markus seized the opportunity and launched a devastating assault, gaining the advantage and leaving the outcome of the game in doubt.
Fein's mind was still reeling from the devastating blunder he had made earlier, but he refused to give up. With steely determination, he focused on the board, considering his moves carefully as he fought to regain his advantage. Markus seemed equally determined, meeting Fein's every move with calculated precision.
