Lion Head Mesa [m] signet

"it is a new type of senet i have devised," pharaoh told @Nazli. he had summoned her earlier, and after a light meal with no drink this time, he had announced they would play this. now his head bent over a game-board, and he showed her the four small stones of different colors.
"you throw one. see. this is red. it means i am able to move three spaces," and he showed her two black stones, the pieces themselves, on a strip of matting etched with light lines. "the winner is whomever reaches the end of the twenty spaces first."
