Dear Wizard,
Where have you gone? I've looked everywhere around the Emerald Palace! I do hope you'll be back in time for supper. The chefs have prepared something really special. Oh please Wizard, please tell me you haven't left me without saying goodbye.
Oh, silly me. Of course you wouldn't do that, would you? I'm sure you're just wandering around the Emerald City.
I do trust you, I really do, but something tells me you've actually left. I haven't seen Finley yet and I can't find your bag and coat.
Has my sister told you about the prophecy? Are you off to Munchkinland? Off to fight the wicked witch?
I wish I could have wished you the best of luck. Of course I wish you good luck anyway, but I wanted to say it to you in person. I wanted to kiss you goodbye.
You know Wizard, you really mean a lot to me. I love you. It's incredible how we've just found eachother. I thought I'd never be loved by anyone, except for my sister.
I thought I was doomed to living a lonely life. And then you showed up. The Wizard, our king, my king. Oh, if only you knew how happy you've made me!
Ever since I was a little girl I dreamed of a man asking me to dance, but I thought no one would ever do such a thing. Not to me, at least.
I always thought I was "just Theodora", nothing special besides that. But you make me feel special. You make me feel loved. You have no idea how important you are to me
Oh God, I can't believe I'm this bad at writing letters. I hardly ever write. Excuse me.
I just wanted to tell you that I really love you and that you mean a lot to me. And that I want you to return safely. I care about you, Wizard. To be honest, I am quite worried.
Are you really off to fight the wicked witch? You've only been here for a day or so. Do you even know how wicked Glinda is?
Take care Wizard. Please take care.
And realise this is not just about you and me becoming king and queen. It's about saving the people of Oz. The wicked witch has destroyed towns, cities, worlds. Children lost their parents, wives lost their husbands…
Oz is no longer the peaceful land it used to be. Oh Wizard, I so hope you'll defeat her!
Reply to me as soon as you read this. I am worried about you. Please come back safely.
With love,
Theodora
