Deep in Galahbhad a poor child, down on their luck, begged in the streets. The filthy rag that rested across their brow barely shielded them from the scorching sun where they were forced to wait, hands outstretched desperate for a few notes of any colour to be sent their way.

The sun was thankfully beginning to set as the child looked up later in the day into the deep eyes of one whose face was all but shrouded in rich cloth.

"Would you like me to grant you a wish young one?" the figure intoned, their voice rich and generous. The child looked up fearfully, sensing the power emanating from each word. Timidly they responded.

"Yes"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When the child woke up, they felt the soft, cooling cotton of fresh sheets. Looking over to the doorway, they noticed the jug of water and the smell of grilling meats wafting in from the kitchen. But how did they know it was the kitchen? Their mother (was she really?) looked around the doorway and smiled. As a feeling of warmth and love spread through the child's chest, a thought drifted into their mind as the memory of their old life was supplanted by the reality of this new one;

"I didn't actually wish for anything"
