If I understand the example in the lesson and these comments correctly, the answer should actually be "Il était une fois, un roi qui vivait dans son château."

Your explanation says that where English points are used the French use commas, yet when I put commas in my last test, it was marked wrong. I give up on numbers and want to move on to something else please.

Merci beaucoup 

"Note also that you use qu'est-ce que if it appears at the start but quoi at the end."

"Note that because plus is used in a negative context here, you don't pronounce the final "s"."

I understand, when I remember, how to use ‘au cas où’. 

However, why can’t you use ‘il me faudrait’ after it, rather than ‘je devrais’. Both are in the conditional tense, and both mean (I think) ‘I must’. 

Anyone know please?

Here’s the relevant question, a translation of ‘in case I have to go out again’,  which was marked as wrong:  au cas où il me faudrait ressortir
