"Your Highness, we have searched everywhere and there is no maiden with such name my Lord" the head of the palace guard said.

"You may leave"

It seems as though they were recovering from a problem and finding themselves in another, the King became worried and thought on how the heir to the throne will be without a Queen.

"My Lord, how about we get to married to another maiden?"

The queen hired a maiden, whose family last name is Anderson, and asked that she poses as Clara Anderson, thereby taking her first name to be Clara and then adding her original last name, Anderson.

The plan went smoothly, and the king was glad that finally his son doesn't have to die of loneliness.
