Prologue:

Most people spoke negatively about the Wicked Witch of the West. Those were the people that only saw her for what she did. The other people, the ones that got close to the Witch, knew she wasn't who everyone thought she was. People like the teachers at her school, roommates that actually stayed in the dorm in private school and college. Basically, it was the people who actually gave her a chance in life that knew her "true colors" as you may say.

All that was a few decades ago. The Witch went into isolation. She captured those in the West and made them her so-called minions. She had many people and animals that served her, some of them were the flying monkeys, which most people knew were her only loyal companions besides the guards. But she did have more than you think, as legend said.

Legend also said that when she got to the castle in the West, she was sentenced to death for trespassing. There were many choices they could've done: dunk her in water, set her on fire, torture her any way possible. But, like all the people that were brave enough to do this, they had a fight with all sorts of weaponry. There were swords thrown, maces that hit walls, arrows shot. All that happened was she made every one that was thrown at her miss her besides one: a lucky arrow that no one saw coming, not even the Witch. She lost an eye in with that arrow but she lived. The family left due to her rage and threat to almost set things on fire, even the family. She had the arrow taken out by one of her friends from her past, but never saw her again.

Due to that arrow in her eye, she only saw through her only eye. She replaced the bad eye with an eyepatch and a clear eyeball sized globe where she enchanted it to see places no one could think possible. She could see all the way past the Emerald City to near the edge of Oz on the East. Of course it was only to see what the other witches were doing, if the citizens were happy.

That was how she got her glass eye and what it was used for. People who heard the story of the Witch might think she was green or just some wrinkly old woman. Only one of those things were true. She did have green skin but she took disguise in a different kind of skin, the skin like the rest of the citizens of the land. She blended in as you may say. Sometimes she could control it, sometimes she couldn't. She didn't have warts like people thought she had. She didn't have wrinkles or nose hairs. She had a beautiful face which stories think are a lie.

Then another legend formed and this was a crazy one. There was a Kansas girl that came into this magical land by what she said was a cyclone. The land just thought it was sorcery since, what they thought was lucky enough, the house killed the Wicked Witch of the East. This didn't faze the Wicked Witch over by the other side of the land. She saw what happened through her glass eye. When she saw the little girl with those shiny slippers on her feet, she knew she had to pry them off her, no matter what it took. The Witch watched over her as she followed the road to the Great Oz. She didn't want to be spotted yet. She saw the girl with three others and a dog. They were said to be talking about the Witch negatively and that made the Witch sick so she left them alone.

After a few days of waiting, the witch was ready to get rid of the little group the girl made. She had sent many things to stop them from getting to her and all failed. She had a plan to set them off and get rid of them. It was a trick that fooled every single thing living: being allergic to water. So when that water touched her, she pretended to melt. As soon as they left, she came back to life. She wanted people to know she died, which will cause all the negativity about her to just leave the land.

Months had passed after that. Things changed for the Witch. She found someone that saw her for who she really was, not what others said she was. They got married and had a baby. You may say that this was all just legends and made up. But this, I found out, was the truth. It's told through the walls of her castle. That girl you think you know, she exists. But people thought that she was crazy, as well as her only family members. Some say that they were just dreaming about this land. But I can say this right now. That girl was right. This land exists. All the citizens exist. Everything in this land exists, even the City and the Fighting Trees and those three people that were with that girl.

The other characters you might wonder about. The Tin Man, he became a well-known woodcutter who found love with one of the Emerald City's citizens. They had a kid named Hom. He was part tin and part real boy. He soon had kids of his own, two to be exact. A boy and girl named Tonar and Issep. Tonar took up his grandfather's name as the woodcutter. That was his passion. Issep became a teller at the Emerald City. They moved to the city when they were young. The Tin Man and his wife were taken care of. Hom helped around the City.

For the Scarecrow, he found another wonderful scarecrow named Susche. They were being taken care of a Munchkin. He made a kid for them. He wasn't made like you'd think others would be. Instead of the Scarecrow being the grandfather of the kid, he was just the father. He decided he had a life to live with Susche until they were ready. They decided to name the kid Shyanusk, a girl that looks like both of them.

As for the Cowardly Lion, well, he had enough courage to ask an attractive lioness to be his. They had many cubs together and had many families. Some of them left them alone but only one of their daughters stayed. She found a lion for herself and had a son named Chairurn. He was a fierce cub but occasionally became a coward.

All of them knew each other. The Scarecrow, Tin Man, And the Cowardly Lion visit each other with their families.

As for the Witches, they also had kids of their own besides the Wicked Witch of the East. She passed away before she had the chance. For the Good Witch of the North, she found a wonderful prince to marry. They had twin boys and one of the twins had a daughter.

You might be wondering what I mean by when I started speaking like you can see me or something. I'm Ryar, grandson of Zwa'eiba, the real name of the Wicked Witch of the West. And this is my story. I'm continuing my grandmother's story. And her legacy.
