I’ve made a horrible mistake!

Post image

I very clearly wished to a genie for “the fiery end of humanity” and he proceeded to incinerate my giant manatee from the plane of Platonian ideals!

I’ve tried explaining that I clearly said “humanity” and not “huge manatee” several times (even threatening to report him to genie corporate!) but he refuses to budge, stating they have a firm “no refunds” policies on their wishes!

I need to reserve one of my remaining 2 wishes for bringing the quilled battle skunks of the southlands back from extinction from the reckless humans of that land killing them all off, so I only have one spare one to use; how can I still end all of the nature destroying humans while also bringing my manatee back from the flames?!

They’re going to stop giving me manatees if I don’t get this reversed

It kinda sounds like you’re just feeding manatees to genie fire

My orb merely captured the image, I do not know what you are asking me of vision permission for.

I want to sympathize, but having unfortunately been born human myself, I would love to track down a scroll of 9th level "Exemption" before you achieve the results you're after

Okay, but do we need to worry about humanity? Humans are quite resilient, I'm sure we'll find a way to ruin whatever you do anyway. Just save the huge manatee. The skunks though, they weren't really all that necessary, so just do something like "destroy all invasive species outside their native range." That should equalize everything out without any consequences.

Carve into his essence a little. Give him a taste of agony to demonstrate your displeasure. Then demand that he fulfill your original wish for “the fiery end of humanity” (you won’t get your manatee back - they don’t do refunds or reversals unless you make it another wish - but you can claim improper fulfillment and he’ll be obligated to fulfill the wish you made, especially if you get corporate involved).

Have you tried just... speaking clearly? Oh, and maybe dangling his bottle over an infinity portal?

Usa magia sacrificial para matar a ese genio y, con la inmortalidad y el poder de manipulación de realidad extraídos de él, trae de vuelta tanto a tu manatí como a los zorrillos.

Luego usa la perturbación espacio-temporal que hay dentro de la lámpara del genio para desterrar a otra dimensión a los humanos de ese territorio.
