Question

In the beginning of "The Magic Prison," Prince Harweda spends most of his time staring into the mirrors. How does his interaction with the mirrors change after the windows disappear? He and the bird stand in front of them so they can look at themselves and all of the beautiful things in the room. He spends all day admiring himself in the mirrors and ignores the games and books in the room. He forgets about them because he is more interested in taking care of the bird and seeing the outside world again. He gets angry when he can no longer see and tries to break the mirrors with the golden jar.

Answer:

The right option is:

C. He forgets about them because he is more interested in taking care of the bird and seeing the outside world again

Explanation:

In "The Magic Prison", prince Harweda is a young boy who is very selfish. Concerned about his future as a king, his parents ask his fairy godmother to help them teach some humility to the boy.

The fairy godmother takes the boy to an enchanted castle, where she locks Harweda up. The only other living being in the castle is a little bird. The walls are taken up by mirrors and windows. However, since Harweda only cares about staring at himself in the mirrors, the windows gradually disappear.

Once the windows are completely gone and Harweda is left in the dark, he finally begins to pay attention to things other than himself. He forgets about the mirrors completely. He begins to take care of the little bird, not realizing that every time he does it, the windows begin to slowly reappear. Harweda gets excited about the sunlight coming in and about the possibility of seeing the outside world, something he did not care about before. As he continues to be kind to the bird, the windows grow more and more. Finally, once Harweda frees the bird, he himself is finally released from this magic prison.
