@Faust-RSI Eh.. I'm about to replay HoS, so this is just my old memories and may be wrong.

- No, Olgierd is NOT immortal after Geralt helps him out of his deal with O'Dimm. He cuts his hand when giving the blade and feels pain for the first time since that whole affair started, it doesn't miraculously heal either.

- I'm fuzzy on the number of wishes too. Maybe after he stringed Gaunter along or outright refused to make the last one, they've re-negotiated that one remaining wish owned by O'Dimm equals any three tasks by the person he outsources them too. Meaning that is 'the proxy' fails the whole deal is null and void? Plus that 'meeting on the moon' after its done must have made Olgierd feel clever.

- Not sure on the wealth and immortality. Maybe he asked if he could tweak a number of things in one package. Or maybe he just wished that he and his wife would live forever, not wanting for nothing. That neatly wraps up it in one wish and give Gaunter all the creative space to do just what he did to both of them. Hmm... I wonder if woven in there was something like 'not fearing anything' and that translated into a power boost, and a side effect of that were at least some magical abilities that activated the curse, and made ritual magic possible.

- If wealth and immortality were a package deal, then the Toadafication could've easily been one of the wishes, blurted out by ignorance or on accident. Like it happened to Geralt. Or he said it in heightened emotions in some place with a lot of dark background energy around and that resulted in the curse he said he didn't mean to happen. Like that fisherman accidentally cursing the island where a lot of people just violently died. And ifdeath is just as good as ritual sacrifice, then did an ataman and his bandits could've stood near a bunch of corpses, just when Olgierd was venting?
