An Obvious Gambit

The Relic Finder managed to make a small opening and drop down into the chamber. She was uses to finding lit up areas in tombs. But what appeared to be a mechanical chess player? That was new. Especially when it turned its head to look at her.

"Game?"

She recognized the ancient Turkish it spoke. She sat down, happy to not have to kill anything for a change.

Her gambits were pedestrian, some newer variations threw it, but she eventually lost.

In an instant her lifeforce was sucked in to power the machine.

Hopefully the wait was shorter this time.
