उत्तर
The second attempt to rescue Sebastian Shultz too was disastrous because the aim of the game was to rescue the princess from a tall tower, but a second knight appeared from the wardrobe and told Michael, ‘It’s me who needs rescuing’. Michael saw it was Sebastian to escape from the tower Sebastian chopped off the Princess’s long plaits and with them slipped from the window down. As Michael lowered himself down, the dragon followed them and when they turned the dragon was upon them, but the dragon was only interested in Sebastian. There was nothing that Michael could do to prevent them.
