Aladdin's magic lamp !
Genie...?!! Where are you...?
Now just look at this! A relic of the great Islamic period, probably dating back to Harun-al-Rachid's time. Belonged to my grandfather.
I told Brinsley that, once upon a time, a genie inhabited this bronze oil lamp, (un)fortunatly set free by its last owner...! You should have seen the sudden amazement mixed with exhilaration on my boy's face! ....... His eyes gleaming with sheer delight!
I think I'll give it to Brinsley and order a plexiglass box to put it on display. I intend to write short related stories which I would read to my son every night while glancing at the lamp. I believe it would look nice on his bedside table.
Sweet dreams, little body! The genie is still there, hanging around the lamp, protecting you in your sleep from prowling beasts and bad sorcerers...!

Nice, 8thC relic there, Sheri! Marvellous! I agree, the perspex display case would be a good idea.

You are a good dad Sheri... I would do the same with my kid (if I had one), care to publish the stories somewhere? Can I see them and maybe use them to write something more around them?

Lox. I haven't written anything yet. But I seriously intend to. As always, I would be glad to submit it to your sound judgement.
