We're already in a discussion about multiple worlds, magic djinn and space wizardry by that point, though: what's one more impossible thing?

Besides, we've seen plenty of things that exist create other things, but something that doesn't exist creating something? That's one of a kind! Pretty impressive to me. Tongue
