That crazy gypsy... she transported you to a desert in the middle of nowhere! You're so angry that you can barely see straight, but know you have to get out of there somehow. So you decide that standing around won't do anything for you. You have to start walking. You travel what seems like hours, waiting for any signs of life, but all around you is nothing but sand and a clear blue sky framing a huge, hot sun. You fall to your knees covered in sweat and dust, seemingly giving up hope, when a glistening light reflects into your eyes. You hold up your hand to shield yourself, but manage to pick yourself up to follow the signal. You walk blindly through the dust and sand, until you come to the beacon in the middle of nothingness... an old dusty lamp. You've read enough stories to know what this could mean, and immediately rub the lamp. To your ultimate disappointment, nothing happens. You angrily throw the lamp away and continue walking into the barren wasteland before you. That is, until you hear a feminine voice from behind you say "Excuse me!" You quickly spin around to see a gorgeous woman with light brown skin and long black hair waving towards you. You stumble back to the girl, who is dressed in revealing pink linens and a thin matching veil, and wave your hands in front of her. She pulls down her veil and smiles, saying "Hello there. Are you alright?" You compose yourself and say "I'm... I'm sorry i've been wandering for so long... are you real?" She giggles and says "I am no mirage, stranger. My name is Inara, and I have been imprisoned in that lamp for so long. Tell me, were you the one who rubbed the lamp?" You stare back at her and nod "Uh, yeah... I don't know it just... seemed like the thing to do." She smiles and says "Well then, that would make you my master. As a reward for releasing me, I will give you three wishes. But be careful in your words, master. Once the third wish has concluded, I am free from your requests, and will return to the lamp for another thousand years... that is, unless one of your wishes is to free me." She brushes a soft hand across your dirty face, sensually whispering to you in a way that drives you crazy "I've been in that damned container as a slave for the past ten thousand years. I've hoped that a kind, generous man would find the lamp and wish me away from this life. Please consider setting me free, master." You take a big gulp and say "Of... Of course. No problem." She smiles and crosses her arms saying "Good. Well then, master. What is your first wish?" You are so thirsty and tired of being in this desert. All you want to do is be anywhere but there. Then again, if you think things over, you could take advantage of this situation completely... maybe even use the genie to get back at Madame Rosella! But your mouth is so dry from travelling, you'd KILL for a glass of water. You pause for a second and say "Okay, Inara, here's my first wish..."
