El Tigre: Redemption

Prologue

A chessboard rested in the middle of a vast expanse of red sand. Two familiar figures sat across from each other, locked in a never-ending battle of wits.

They were El Dios de los Gatos and El Dios de las Arañas; the Cat God and the Spider God.

"So it's come to this," the Cat God mused, "a war that has lasted for centuries has finally reached a boiling point…"

"And we are but spectators," the Spider God grumbled.

"We must be content with the choices we've made."

The Spider God sighed. "Two armies…one final clash."

El Dios de los Gatos shook his head. "If only it were that simple…but one thing is certain," the god moved a piece, "we have entered the endgame. Check."
