Most important chess piece (4)

I believe the answer is:

king

(Other definitions for king that I've seen before include "Recipient of 10 21 [VELODROME GOLD]" , "Playing-card" , "Most important chessman" , "In Christianity, God or Jesus Christ" , "indispensable on board" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
