The 90% chance is cannon. Is has a 10% chance to succeed, though I dint know why you'd be rolling against 4 coin flips

WHAT DO YOU MEAN? This is not how I designed the magic system

I thought it was a 90% chance he got it wrong?

COMPLETELY DIFFERENT

Lol, so are magic coins

"Yes."

There are some very important coin flips in this world, you know

"Perhaps that is why your coins know of your cowardice."

Your 3rd wish works

Your 3rd wish works

"You were the one who wanted to know why you can't just flip coins." Violette said. "So now you know why should let me use your coins."

She produces a coin. "Flip this. If something happens. I'll believe you."

I'm asking which one the bad option is

What did you wish for

Is the coin magical?

She took it, and turned it in her hand. It was finely made. 

"Where did you get this coin from?"

i don't get it

A successful wish means it does exactly what you want. An unsuccessful one means it is ineffective or doesn't do what you want.

No, you did say any coin though...

"Vellelu's hoard."

The coin doesn't need to be magical to work, but you'll see what I mean.

Your hand erupts in flame, but doesn't burn you.

"No idea."

Why doesn't the coin need to be magic to work? I like to preview magic before making it canon.

"I trust real coins." Violette said. "Why's the Wish-granter's hand on fire?"

Real stakes, real power.

That doesn't make any sense in this world!

Luck!

She flipped the coin. It landed heads, as she had predicted. "Give me your history. Show me where you were." She told the coin. She tossed the coin up again, and caught it, predicting the outcome.

How does that fit here though!

The coin did nothing

I'm going to resolve this tomorrow. Either by somehow working this in to the magic... or giving you a hard no.

It does!

It landed exactly as she thought. Although the coin did nothing, it told her everything she needed to know.

"Happy now?"
