What a pawn wants

 A pawn wants promotion. It wants to queen.

That clarifies its "wanderlust".

The pawn opens and closes lines of attack while moving forward.

  • red lines: blocked lines of attack
  • green lines: opened lines of attack
  • red squares: weakened squares (lines of attack for the knight)

That's how pawns shape the LoA landscape.
