This comes with a really nice Narnian chess set, hand carved/molded/etc. So the chess board is solid wood in alternating wood types and the actual chessmen are gold and silver... looking. I seriously doubt they're solid gold and silver, but they're close. Anyway it looks fancy.
And because I actually fail at chess, most chess matches with Ed will be kinda handwavey. Still, he'll gladly teach anyone, and he's a pretty good player. He's not champion level, but he's definitely in the expert range, so you'll get a good game out of him.
Also by sheer hilarity, because he got the memory of discovering the ruins of Cair Paravel, this will actually kind of work as a trivial negative. He'll be kind of sad, but nostalgic while toying with the chess pieces. But if you're really lucky, you might see him messing with the cats and making them look like they're trying to play chess.
