(Thanks for the compliments.

Also, I thought you might guess that...)

Having finally worked out the trick to playing Witch's Chess, the Human Side made a series of quick guesses, each one drawing them closer to the answer. Finally, after a bit of teamwork, Intense Degree put forward a guess:

1-9-8-6.

In response to this guess, the letters on the page moved about, ink shifting and rippling, until they read:

NIneTeEN eigHttY six


"Almost perfect," said Miss Knox. "But not quite. In this particular magic, spelling counts."
