Also known as: check
A chess term Erin uses to conceptualize her impending death, which she then questions, leading her to formulate a plan to survive.
Checkmate is a term from the game of chess that Erin repeatedly whispers to herself when she believes she is cornered and about to be killed by the Goblin Chieftain. It represents her feeling of utter hopelessness and the certainty of her defeat.
This chess concept is central to Erin's internal struggle. Initially representing her acceptance of death, she questions if it's 'just check', which galvanizes her to reject despair and formulate a plan to survive.
