Ali's lamp is another example of why the container and the being inside it need separate entries.

Ali's lamp is another example of why the container and the being inside it need separate entries. In Grimm Fairy Tales #101–102, Ali brings a family-heirloom lamp to Arcane Acre. It belonged to his father, and Ali knows there is something inside it. His mother has died, and he hopes the lamp can give him a way to bring her back. Other students take it, and the genie is released inside the school. What looks like an object someone could keep quietly in a room becomes a problem for everyone around it. Ali finally uses his wish to undo having brought the genie there. He gives up the thing he wanted in order to stop what is happening to the others. The disturbances end, but the experience isn't wiped from everyone's memory the way he hoped. The scene explicitly gives him one wish. There is no reason to force a universal three-wish rule onto it, or assume this lamp is the same one involved in another character's story.
