In chess there are 32 pieces on the board, of which are separated by the colors black and white, each denoting the 2 separate sides and/or players, therefore leaving 16 pieces a side. These 16 pieces are comprised of 1 King, 1 Queen, 2 Rooks, 2 Bishops, 2 Knights and 8 pawns. Each piece is allocated with a value, and a set of capabilities. Now, the purpose of the game is to capture or rather checkmate the oppositions King while protecting your own. Thus making the king the most important piece in the game, however the King is the second weakest piece on the board, only after the pawn, which is rightfully the lowest rated piece on the board. The Queen however, is the most powerful piece in the game and by default making it the second most important piece in the game
Now, I have been playing chess since I was 4 years old and have unfortunately only learnt the subtext of the game, in life, through experience, the lesson is quite simple in both chess and life, by all means the King is very important but without his Queen, he is rendered weak, with his chances of success made not only extremely difficult but also unlikely
To the all the Queens out there that are in our lives, thank you
