When it was morning, the Sultan came and found everything just as he desired, he married her, and the beautiful Lara became queen.

A year later she brought a beautiful child into the world. She thought no more about the mysterious man. When suddenly, he appeared in her bedroom.

"Now give me that which you promised." the man demanded.

Lara took fright and offered the man all the wealth of the kingdom if he would let her keep the child.

"Please take the Gold, I can't let you have my daughter." the Queen begged the stranger.

But the man said, "No. Something living is dearer to me than all the treasures of the world."

When Lara heard this, she lamented and cried her eyes out. Feeling bad for making the Queen sad, the mysterious man took pity on her. 

"I will give you three days' time. If by then you know my name, then you shall keep your child." the man told Lara and she stopped crying.

"Thank You, Mysterious Man." Lara thanked the stranger and "Poof" he disappeared from the room.

Lara spent the entire night thinking of all the names she had ever heard.
