Can a Dragon King or a Pope move through check?

Yes, these compound royal pieces may move through check. I created this game before I created British Chess, whose royal Queen is not allowed to move through check. Allowing a Dragon King or a Pope to move through check never seemed as much of a problem as allowing a royal Queen, which is a more powerful piece, to move through check. So the need for such a rule never arose, and I didn't think of including such a rule in a game until British Chess.
