Chesspiece able to move one square in any direction (4)

I believe the answer is:

king

(Other definitions for king that I've seen before include "eg Wenceslas" , "Play set in medieval Britain" , "Mythical monarch commemorated by 1" , "Man with a crown" , "and 21 Across: Shakespeare play" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
