The king never leaves the board, and the only piece a pawn cannot be promoted to is king. Chess metaphors (king vs queen) can go either way, but they appear to favor the king as being...

The King of all He Surveys!

We all know it's BETTER to be the QUEEN.

The wife of the King is known as the Queen.

However, the husband of the Queen is known as the Consort, or only a Prince.

This is as it should be.
