This can be done by capturing the opponent's pawns attack, shut down the opponent attacks by placing a pawn of them (if that attack the Queen, the Citadel, or the elephant, and there are vacant plots between the king and the pawn of the opponent), or move the king to hide and that is not being attacked. Castled king was not permitted if diskak.
