Battle of Hampi [15]

Royal Palace, Vijayanagara Empire. 

Nakul brought out the board for Chaturanga. The pieces were lined up neatly, and Harsha looked at the board with quite an intrigued look. It looked similar to the pieces in modern chess but less refined. The pieces were made of wood along with the board. 

The board wasn't checkered like the one in modern chess. He was pretty excited for the game. He liked a challenge always, and this was precisely one of those challenges. 

Lakshmi looked at him, adjusting the pieces. 

"You can have the first move, Brother!" She said. 

"Are you sure? Don't complain when you lose to me!" Harsha responded with a smile.

"Yes!" 

Harsha moved his pawn forward, taking an offensive approach.

"So what did you want to talk about, sister?" 

In exchange, Lakshmi moved another pawn from the other end forward, looking to open up the defense of Harsha.
