I should also point out that any other piece you attempted to block with (bishop, free king, or side mover), would immediately be captured by igui. You'd be one more piece down and your king would still be in check. The least bloody defense is to take the plunge and sacrifice the lion, hoping you can save as many other pieces, most of which would not be in immediate danger from me.
