This COMPLETELY computer-generated article was obtained, in less than two minutes, by running the input file with the Maple package ChessWalks, kindly written by my beloved master, Doron Zeilberger. Chess pieces who like to travel on other sizes of chess boards (say a by b rather than the traditional 8 by 8 board), can easily generate similar articles by changing the command
ChessStory(8,8,30):
To
ChessStory(a,b,30);
for the desired a and b (both need to be larger than 4).
