In the days of the ancient Celts even the Teddy Bears were great heroes. The values of the Teddy Celts are truth and justice. They aim to restore order. Staging epic battles in defence of the young and innocent and the preservation of the child in us all.
Let’s introduce the Teddy Celts.
Castle: Saoirse the Seer [a person of supernatural insight who sees visions of the future] is in the treehouse castle. Sitting on the edge to keep watch for any approaching grown-ups.
Knight: Tiernan the knight stands ready with his shield and sword. He keeps away the people who want us to grow up, as grown-ups don’t seem to have any fun.
Bishop: Paddy the bishop is knowledgeable of all the ancient games. His sideway moves will help outwit the grown-ups.
King: Cillin the King, who is the champion of having fun, is always ready to play with a laugh that is infectious. He has his big shield and sword if things start getting serious.
Queen: Ciara the Queen just makes you smile and forget about all your worries. She gives you hope for the land of the ever young, the land of Tir na Nog.
Pawn: Sean the pawn is not sure if they said we are going to advance or going to a Dance, so he dressed for both.
In playing chess with this board, you are keeping alive the traditions of the ancient Teddy Celts. Truth and justice with a little mischief for the preservation of the child in us all.
