Ariel and the others were having a hearty breakfast. The King and the Queen of Romania, and Theodore were also sitting down together to have breakfast along with all the children.
The table was full of varieties of dishes like cornmeal porridge, pie stuffed with spinach and cheese, patties stuffed with mashed potatoes, doughballs, tea, milk, etc.
The Princes and Princesses of Wyverndale were taking special interest in those dishes that were new to them.
"I hope the food isn't too bland for your taste," King Louis asked Theodore.
Theodore shook his head and replied with a subtle smile on his face, "No, it is actually quite tasty. I really like them all."
"And what about you all?" Joyce asked her cousins so as to engage them in the talk and lighten up their sour mood.
"I like this pie," Zach pointed at a huge chunk of the pie on his plate and then gulped down half a glass of milk.
