So King Leopold, Snow’s father, wished for his genie to be free, and there was no price to be paid (although, he did die later from a crazy two-headed snake bite). It looked relatively simple and painless. So why was it so easy in that case when Cyrus says its difficult/dangerous?
I think what Cyrus was getting at was that after getting his freedom Sydney did kill a person and wound up trapped again. Having that much freedom led to bad choices. I think Cyrus might fear what that much freedom could mean
Also, We see that Jafar has collected 2 of the 3 genie lamps. Is one of the two he has the Lamp that belonged to Syndey Glass/Genie in Once Upon A Time before he was freed?
From screenshots, they do look really similar. But I can’t see them bringing Giancarlo back for WL. They sorta used up their freebie with ONCE 302. I do think that whatever genie comes out of that lamp will be Blue and will be Aladdin’s genie.
