Brilliant answer, Neveraxword. I wasn't expecting to go quite so far back in history as the Ark.

Takes some time to determine which of the six potential 4-letter grid positions to use but two of them can be eliminated immediately as they commence with B, a given letter. It's less easy to eliminate the other three possibles. Looking at the possibilities for K is the key.
Thanks, satprof. I hope it does slot in OK.
Dark .. 19,15,6,5 and Q is 17
