stayed awake that night trying to remind all names that she has been heard in her entire
life. Next day she asked from the watchman to collect all men names in the entire the
kingdom. The short man came and the queen told him all the names that she heard, but he
said after every name no that’s not my name. Next day she asked from the watchman to go
