Anticipation

I'm going to kill you because I killed your brother.

This is what He does. He kills or Turns, and before anyone can return the favor, He kills them. The Black King leaves no stone unturned. No piece unattacked. The Pawns are at the most risk here. The Pawns are easy to cut down, one by one, until there is not a single one left. But the Black King does not simply remove Pawns from the board; oh, no. He turns them against their own people and marches them towards the edge of the board, the end of the world, and He transforms them into something much more powerful, much more obedient, and much less human.
