I’ll break it down into two perspectives so that you can fully understand it.

From the Man’s perspective – You are the King, right? Of course, you are. And your major priority is to “protect your queen and hold down the fort while making sure everything is in order” for as long as you live. You are the one who controls and guides the other pieces even though you personally can only move one step at a time. Notice how the queen is right beside you?

No, not really, as the king, it's your job to still move the other pieces to the right place and the right manner so as to protect your Kingdom. You get?
Even tho your movements are restricted. You have to make sure other pieces are working for you and your kingdom's benefits.
