When they reach the palace, they were met by a page. This page told them that a dragon kept watching on their father’s prison. Without wasting another moment, the children found the prison and the dragon. Fortunately, the dragon was sleeping, so the Strong-arm put a sword through the dragon’s heart easily. The page, with his large head and scary smile, came and took the children inside the castle. That night, the giant had drunk too much. So, he was fast asleep in some far away corner of the castle. He did not hear the children enter and did not hear the children break their father’s chains. The father was happy to see his children and embraced his children happily. While the children were away, the poor old woman drowned in her grief. An old witch found her and took her on her broom. This old witch had too much power and told the woman that she would help the woman in seeking her revenge. The witch made sure that the giant’s feet were afflicted by corns.

When the children saw this, they rushed about their house. Before the old witch and the old woman or before the old man and the other sons could reach the spot, Strong-arm shot arrows and wounded the giant. You may also like to read, The Selfish Giant Story.
