So, the prompt for our third round is:
🌬️ Chess board(n):
a square board divided into sixty-four alternating dark and squares (conventionally called ‘black’ and ‘white’), used for playing chess or draughts (checkers)
❄
️:
Here you may use the game, chess, as a symbolism or metaphor in your poem.
For example: One can use the black and white colors of the board, their partition to represent something.
Or you can tell how two nations here fight until nothing is left and one of them has to accept defeat.
Or simply use the concept of game to tell that life is similar to this game of chess.
These examples are only meant to create ideas, however you are free to use the prompt as you like but it should fit the theme, where you shall use the term 'chess board' to represent something or you may write about the game itself.

A vacant throne. Seven contenders and a princess with a mysterious necklace. Shahzadi Rouya's days as a princess come to a bloody end. When rebels storm the castle and murder the emperor, Rouya vows to reclaim the throne but is forced to flee with an army on her heels and a necklace in her pocket. The rebels won't stop chasing her until they've pried the relic off her dead body and unleashed the ancient spirit trapped within. Evelyn has served many masters throughout the centuries and seen them all inevitably fall. As a Battle Maiden, she's a warrior spirit bound to the summoner in possession of her relic and capable of defeating entire armies. Evelyn isn't alone, for each of the seven relics contains within it a Battle Maiden of equal strength sworn to another master.

Acheron
Acheron, keeping you, and your family, safe, by keeping them…where they belong! Support the United Systems Alliance penal system, for a safer tomorrow. Great commercial. But that place is a total hellhole worse than death for many, and everybody knows it. The convicts are even having children. They’re supposed to be sterilized, but that costs too much, if the scandals are to be believed. Either way, Dan doesn’t care. He has a job to do—and that’s to get that lizard-ambassador out of there. How her ship crashed on that rock in the first place is an interesting mystery. Something big is at play here...

Somebody Has To Be The Dark Lord
Dwellin Dorr doesn't want to fix the broken world around her. She wants to break it further. A child of the gutters and the volcanic Ashlands, Dwellin is meant for greatness. Just not the kind everyone else wants. Quite the opposite, in fact. They call her the Pestilence of the Gutter Vale, blame her for the Blaze of Canarva, and rumour has it she cut down the Blightlord himself on the Roaring Steps. But every story has a beginning, and Dwellin has all that to come. For first, she must survive the streets and the punishing industry of the Ashlands. Recounted by Dwellin herself, Somebody Has To Be The Dark Lord is a tale of how the chosen one's path does not always lead to light, but to darkness instead. A mix of Renaissance-era Mediterranean fantasy, dark humour, mystery and magic-filled action, Somebody Has To Be The Dark Lord is a journey to a different kind of greatness. [Releases every weekend. Chapters range from 4-6k]
