I though about castling for a while but it does not seem a good thing. It would have involved one step diagonally back which is also uncomfortable. Any thoughts are appreciated.

For this reason I did start the King in Elven Chess on the back rank, and put one of the unorthodox pieces (the Lion) in its place next to the Queen.
