"You will yet love her better than she loves you," said Cromdes, meaning thereby that they would hate each other. While they spoke the king and Becuma entered the palace. "I had better go to greet my father," said the young man. "You had better wait until he sends for you," his companion advised, and they returned to their game.
But it is true that Art regarded his mother's successor with intense dislike, and it is true that she actively returned it. One day Becuma came on the lawn before the palace, and seeing that Art was at chess with Cromdes she walked to the table on which the match was being played and for some time regarded the game.
It is part of the education of a prince to be a good chess player, and to continually exercise his mind in view of the judgements that he will be called upon to give and the knotty, tortuous, and perplexing matters which will obscure the issues which he must judge. Art, the son of Conn, was sitting at chess with Cromdes, his father's magician.
"Be very careful about the move you are going to make," said Cromdes. "CAN I be careful?" Art inquired. "Is the move that you are thinking of in my power?" "It is not," the other admitted. "Then I need not be more careful than usual," Art replied, and he made his move. "It is a move of banishment," said Cromdes.
