"Dorothy supposed she should try to get back to her home, but as she couldn't remember having studied anything about Oz in school, nor could I recall a place named Kansas, we decided that she should look for help elsewhere. Until those fickle Munchkinlanders nominated Dorothy as Nessie's successor! The girl- knowing nothing of Oz, of course- was helpless. I tried to shoo them away, but for their size, those people really do stand their ground. They're nearly holding Dorothy hostage over in Center Munch. I couldn't find a way to prevent it without using violence," Glinda half-apologized. The Witch blinked.
"...She's been here for a little over a month? And they want her to rule over Munchkinland?" Elphaba said skeptically. "She has no clue of the political climate she has blown herself into." Glinda gazed at Elphie, almost pleadingly.
"Elphie, she's an innocent girl! Twelve years old," she wheedled. "You must find a way to make them release her. They believe she's Lurlina herself- or perhaps the new line of Ozma, since the old one seems to be lost forever..." she drifted. Then her focused returned. "Elphaba, the citizens of Munchkinland are nothing short of insane-"
"They are on the brink of blood sacrifice, I know." The Witch dismissed. Glinda gave her a funny look.
"You really haven't been here for a long time," she said, at last.
A/N: I'm sorry this is so short, but of course it's more of a prologue than an actual chapter. I will continue updating, regardless of reviews... but a few would be nice. Oh, and I don't own Wicked, duh, or any of the characters.
Though I wouldn't mind having Glinda for a best friend.
