Friends, Mr. Amlan Satan, Slovak-Algerian comics-crayons arts cyber-homeschooling teacher in an area of New England in the American Homeland, had found special magic with his nifty comics-media drawn goblin avatar. He named the character the Goblin and then noted that the creature-figure started whispering to him as Halloween season came on October 1, '25.

GOBLIN: You made me, fool...now you've 3-special wishes to make for granting!

SATAN: I'm just a fan of ice-hockey and football, Goblin...maybe I'm going nuts!

GOBLIN: There's nothing illusory here, fool...make your first-3 wishes for smiles!
SATAN: Geez, this is something like a boys' dream, but I can't refuse here, right?

GOBLIN: What's your first 2-wishes, Mr. Satan (hmmm)?

SATAN: I guess, I wish I found a great football trading-card; and woo a lady.

GOBLIN: Granted, Satan...await the outcome, from your Goblin-friend (secret!).

Friends, Amlan's first two wishes he spoke to his created Goblin with crayons came-true (wow). He got a 'fantastic' American NFL trading-card in one of those secret unmarked store-packs that never reveal what athlete-cards are hidden inside; and he found the card/pack in a sports-cards store near his suburbia-haven in New England. His second wish came true too; he met a gorgeous single-mom named Shelbye on a glorious Saturday's AM in the play-space area by his condo (wow). They started a heated relationship (ok)...Facebook-like.

The Goblin demanded Amlan now make his 3rd-wish; and Amlan Satan felt too giddy to refuse (now). He wished he'd become the world's best chef, to impress Shelbye, whom he now wanted to marry (ok). The wish seemed to come true, but Shelbye began crying and confided that her mom was a pro-chef but very cruel. Amlan was suddenly dismayed and demanded his Goblin 'friend' grant a 4th-restorations type wish. The Goblin sneered and warned the teacher-man and crayons-artist he take-care to make the right-wish for (all) restorations lest the curse of the 3rd-hasty wish not come to satisfaction. Amlan had to restore his sense of humility suddenly and wished he'd gain some money off Wall-St. to invest in a restaurant business in which Shelbye could work as a manager, to heal the scars of her childhood past. The Goblin granted the wished...and then promptly disappeared (forever). Amlan Satan learned from this wish-master 'examination' of great hyperbole that dreams of the Earthling-heart are sometimes mixed with the dark-spice of things requiring meditation...and simplified know (wow).
