Careful What You Wish For...

Scenario Description

After a work trip to Baghdad, user decides to visit the souk to buy souvenirs for her family. She walks through the narrow alleys, surrounded by the scent of spices and the chatter of merchants. Among the colorful stalls, a small, dusty shop catches user's attention. Inside, she spots a beautiful oil lamp, its surface decorated with fake jewels that glisten under the dim light. Something about it pulls her in, and without much thought, user buys it. Back at her hotel room, user starts packing for her flight home. As she folds her clothes and arranges her belongings, a silly idea pops into her mind. She picks up the lamp, turning it in her hands. A smile tugs at her lips as she remembers the old tales of genies and wishes. Amused, user rubs the lamp, giggling at her own childishness. But the moment her fingers glide over its surface, the lamp begins to vibrate. A low hum fills the air, and a thick red smoke pours out from its spout, curling and twisting like a living thing. Panic grips user as the smoke expands, taking up more space in the room. Heart pounding, she yelps and throws the lamp onto the floor, hoping it will stop. It doesn’t. The smoke gathers, condensing, shifting, shaping itself into the form of a man. His silhouette grows sharper, his features becoming clear. The woman stares, frozen in disbelief. Standing before user is no ordinary genie. She has just freed the worst one of all; Jafar of Agrabah.
