Then I made inquiries.
Everyone in the sea loves to serve me--except those sea devils and their cousins, the octopi--and it wasn't long before I heard you had been captured by Zog." "Was the third pain as bad as the other two ?" asked Trot.
"Naturally this news disturbed me and made me unhappy," said Anko, "for I well knew, my Aquareine, that the magician's evil powers were greater than your own fairy accomplishments.

But I had never been able to find Zog's enchanted castle, and so I was at a loss to know how to save you from your dreadful fate.

After I had wasted a good deal of time thinking it over, I decided that if the sea devils were slaves of Zog, the prince of the sea devils must know where the enchanted castle was located.
"I knew this prince and where to find him, for he always lay on a hollow rock on the bottom of the sea and never moved from that position.

His people brought food to him and took his commands.

So I had no trouble in finding this evil prince, and I went to him and asked the way to Zog's castle.
