More Wishes Than Any Man Needs
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 113144

Waverly gaped. Indeed, she had been planning on telling Havelock about this immediately and trying to set something up where he would free her from the net so that she would not have to grant the fisherman wishes. It seemed the man was much smarter than she had assumed. Once she was free, she darted away without another word. Throughout the next day, she felt her own magic tugging her to go and become ensnared in Henry's net. But the wording of the wish had merely been "every day." So it was that, one minute before midnight, she found herself propelled to the surface by her magic, immediately becoming irrevocably caught in Henry's net. He stared down at her angrily, and said, "I wish that when you come to be caught in my net, you always come at the same time: early in the morning, the time I first caught you." Waverly gazed back at him with anger equal to or greater than his, and said, "This is cruel." Henry shrugged her words off. "Next, I want you to make me extremely handsome." Waverly crossed her arms. Henry snarled. "I wish for you to make me extremely handsome." The choice out of her hands, Waverly sighed, and waved her hand. Henry's features began to shift. His jawline became more chiseled, his eyes large and piercing. Within moments he was the most handsome landwalker Waverly could recall seeing in her life. Proving further that he was good at thinking things out, he said, "My final wish is for nobody that I know to remember what I used to look like, and believe I have always looked like this. I don't want my family and friends not recognizing me." Waverly granted his final wish, was released, and was off. Over the following weeks, Henry made many wishes—often using his third one to wish for Waverly to immediately get stuck in his net again. Waverly's constant use of her magic began to weaken her, and her family and friends became worried, but she could not tell them what was wrong. And, per another wish Henry had made, she could not even allow them to follow her to her daily wish-granting session. Meanwhile, of course, Henry's life gradually improved spectacularly. Though many of his wishes he very much wasted, due to the overwhelming abundance of them. But after a point, Waverly couldn't even resent him for it, for he had wished for her to be fond of him. One day...
