A strange little side quest
The rules may be simple on screen, but the backstory around Mason the Professional Assassin is anything but tiny. Archery first appeared at the Olympic Games in 1900 and returned permanently to the programme in 1972 after a long absence. That is only half the story. The word 'checkmate' is linked to the Persian expression 'shah mat', used when the king was trapped. Grombi files that under: small game, surprisingly large backstory.
