Malakhar: What she didnt know was just how this bottle would grant her desire. She opened it and took a look inside. To her shock, the Tear was gone. She put the bottle back, scared that she did something wrong that might have broken the tear or made it disappear. But it didnt. It was infusing itself with the bottle, enchanting it with its magic. Whomever opened the bottle, be it Jinn herself or anypony else, would receive what Jinn desired. Not that it mattered, as she had already opened it herself. It took some time to gain effect, worrying her even more. But soon the process, the one Im sure you know yourself, began at once. Her tail was sucked into the bottle first, as her body levitated towards the bottle. She slowly got sucked into the container, her hindlegs going in as well. This being the first time this ever happened, Jinn was terrified. She had no idea what it was doing it to her. But she couldnt resist against the power of the enchanted bottle, and she was eventually all bottled up.

About 3 days later, a concerned stallion friend of Jinns came around to her house to see if she was alright. At that point, nopony saw her around for an entire 72 hours. He went inside and saw no sign of his friend. However, he was drawn to a glowing ceramic bottle that was on the floor. Something compelled him inside to open it. When he obeyed and opened it, he was shocked to see Jinn pop out, with a ghost-like tail from her hips connecting her to the bottle, and with strange jewelry on her forehead and her front hooves. Jinn told him the story on how she came to be like this. But they were both confused as to what truly happened to her.

During their talk, the Stallions stomach rumbled and he wished he had some veggies to eat. Jinn thought to herself that she didnt have too much food in her house. Prior to what happened to her, she planned on going shopping to get more. But now she had the problem of having to figure this out before she went out in public again. She thought about how she wished for something before she was sucked into the bottle. She imagined that itd be a bit silly to think this way, but maybe she should try envisioning herself making veggies from thin air.

In short time, she had suddenly made vegetables like Carrots and Lettuce appear from thin air, completely taking her friend by surprise. Her friend tried the magical food, but it didnt taste very good. Nonetheless, the Stallion asked Jinn just how she did it. Jinn replied that she envisioned herself granting the wish he had said. Somehow, her hooves created it just like that. Then it struck her on what the Dragons Tear had done to her. She had desired herself to be one with the artifact, and thats what happened to her. She was now a being who could grant the wishes with just a thought in her head. She now had full use of the magical power from within the Dragons Tear, as long as spoken desires were said in earshot of her.

She kept it a secret for the longest time, however. So much power discovered within one pony might alarm other citizens. In order to do so, she went to find a job among Saddle Arabian dancers, after she discovered that wishing for legs gave her impossible-to-remove attire that was similar to those of dancers. It was the only way she could keep it a secret any longer. Being a Dancer was an occupation she didnt think much of about, but things changed when she learned the dances of the Mares were more intertwined with Saddle Arabian culture then she thought. She even made good friends with many of the dancers she met. In time, she would trust her dancer friends to know her secret powers. She even convinced at least a few of them later on to becoming Genies themselves, after she came across a few more Dragons Tears over the years.

It was the expansion from the dancers that would eventually lead the Genies to becoming one of the most revered parts about Saddle Arabian culture. Eventually, Jinn found the courage to make her Genie nature less of a secret. And for a long amount of time, Saddle Arabians were enamored with the mystique the Genies provided, until the complications and controversy that resulted from the Anti-Genie Regime. Genies and ponies who decided to go into the service of keeping the culture surrounding Genies, such as my ancestors, lived and prospered for thousands of years. That was something that came back with the demise of the Anti-Genie Regime, even if there were no Genies to continue it.
