They decide instead of granting wishes to simply live here.As a result of this unplanned madness, Hanappe winds up with the power to make people spontaneously undress and want to have sex with him. He is also given the power to shut this off, but he doesn’t learn this immediately. It has consequences far beyond what he imagines though…And then Hanappe discovers a side-effect; he has untapped strength and abilities.And then it gets weird…
