Meanwhile at the stone: A figure steps out from the shadows. Placing the stone on a table she shifts, the human changing, growing wings and falling to all fours, as a sphinx soon has replaced her "So stone, how can I make it so that my race gets more people." the sphinx said to the stone before continuing "I wish that any wish that would change the sphinx currently known as Jon would fail unless she has great grand children that are sphinxes. I also wish that when the stone finds it's way back to her she will know what she needs too do to be able to use the stone fully again but not who has made the wish. My third wish is that the stone will find it's way back to her within a week" She smiles before placing the stone back into the shadows where it disappears from view.

Yikes. We have a new writer too. Well, the good news Jon is you're going to solve your problem. The bad news is that it is going to take a certain amount of time and you'll have to do some things you really don't want to do. Though if she's creative Jon could cheat in the intent of this wish: instantly materialize an offspring into existence without birthing it with the help of the stone, materialize that offspring's offspring, and materialize that offspring's offspring, and then fix the common cold issue. But it also kind of ruins the story, because now it removes all the important uncertainty in the future of the story. We now know Jon is going to successfully get the stone back and any further quest is now irrelevant because it is predestined she'll get the rock back. What room is there left for an actual story from here on out then? We already know the outcome, Jon gets the stone back. Well, maybe some other writers will be able to fix that mess and keep it interesting.
