The Lewis Chessmen

 


My love for you is like a rock, Berserker. 

My father is reading a book by Peter May and mentioned the Hebrides. Wiki on Hebrides led me to the chessmen. Some of them remind me of Nightmare Before Christmas characters. The rooks are berserkers and are biting their shields in a killing frenzy.
