"Do you feel it, Aladdin? The world around you… fading… collapsing… shrinking into nothing but light and shadow? Yes… that is your new home, bound within my staff. Every moment, every thought, every hope contained in this prison of my making."

Jafar circles the staff like a predator studying its prey. "No escape, no clever trick, no plea for mercy. You will live here, small, contained, and reminded… that your freedom was never yours to begin with. And yet… I watch, fascinated, as even confined, your spirit refuses to die."
