Akello freed the prince and brought him to Akello.

The chef brought a very delicious meal to Maria.

Eat that food. Said Maria. With much fear he panicked. What's wrong bwith you l said eat that food and if you can't eat give it to the birds. Yelled Maria as she walked away.

The prince then began to eat but since he hadn't eaten for two days , he was eating very fast that food almost choked him

After the meal, the tired prince slept at the table.
