Being?


One of them is a Metaphysical being. The others are Firedwellers, and have strange powers. If you trade a soul to them, it's like Genie wishes, but they can't twist the wording as well as a Genie. They are straight to the point, where as Genies don't take souls. But they do like messing with the way the wish is granted.

If I ever met a genie, I'd hire a really good lawyer.

They have eternity to find loopholes. You'd have better luck befriending the genie.

You could argue the same about lawyers. What if I got a genie to make my wish to another genie for me?

They refuse to grant any wishes that would get you more wishes. You'd have to seek out a second genie manually.

I'm not sure. They might just sense that you already used your three wishes, and refuse to grant them.

Yep. But the magic still belongs to the Genie. So good luck with that one.

No, but a genie should be bound to the wish. If there's no ambiguity, there's nothing for the genie to manipulate.

And the situation is if you get a Malevolent genie, instead of a nicer one.

They can have preferences, but if that's what you really want, they have to grant it.

So doesn't it not matter if you have a good lawyer?
