Scarecrow pov
As I walk with Glinda, I feel myself be truly happy for once, just the prospect of Dorothy coming here is like a dream coming true and I can't stop grinning to myself. But one thing still hasn't left my mind, how did I see and hear Dorothy in that pillar back in the garden? Once we got to the messenger room and had made a letter to both of our friends,
Dear friends,
I hope this letter finds you in good health for we request your dyer assistance, for we are sure that you know of the present evil that is coming our way. I also want to inform you that the wizard, Marvel, has gone to Dorothy's realm to tell her of our situation and bring her back to us to help fight off this foe. The time that she returns to us is currently unknown, but we must be prepared for any possible outcomes once she has arrived. Thank you, my friends, and let's and defeat this foe together once and for all.
Please come as soon as you are able to.
Signed your friend,
Scarecrow the Wise
Glinda then duplicated the letter and we had sent them on their way, then we went to the ancient magic section of the library to see if we can find it anything else on what is happening here.
~^owo^~
Time Skip
It's been few hours of page turning and book sorting, I feel exhausted and I still haven't found anything about the witch's family or about the in-between dimension communications. I peek over my book to see Glinda sip her tea as she uses her magic to levitate at least six books in front of herself. Show off (sigh) well this would be a good time as any to ask her about what happened, I place my book of "The properties of good and bad Magic" down next to my cup and look down to Glinda patiently till she looks up.
"Is there something wrong, dear?"
I took another deep breath before I questioned her
"Glinda how in OZ did I see Dorothy in the garden?"
She let out this huge sigh as if she knew I wasn't going to let this go and has been anticipating my questions. Then she sets her books down in two even stacks as she turns to face me.
"Alright, Scarecrow how should I put this ummm…. Oh, our worlds are like the hands of a grandfather clock, Dorothy's realm being the second hand and ours' being the minute hand. We both depend on the weights of magic to keep us balanced and moving."
I interject
"But Dorothy's world has no magic."
She nodded in agreement
"True and that's because time goes by too quickly there, though it has only been 7 years here it's been 14 years in her world. Magic is there but very faint unless... Our worlds become
connected which is our current predicament."
"But that doesn't explain..."
She stares me down like my politics tutor, I sink down into my set. Note to self: don't interrupt Glinda more than once when she is explaining something. I didn't even know she could show any negative emotions like that, I mutter an apology as she continued.
"As I was going to explain there are moments when we can pass through to the other world, like on eclipses, seasonal solstices, and even during strong storms if there is help on both sides. But in the meantime, small mirror portals can be opened and used if there are 3 parts in play: an unbreakable bond between both users, strong magical sorceress, and the same reflectable materials on both sides. It's how I have been able to stay in touch with Marvel by using a crystal ball whenever he goes to check on her realm over the past couple of centuries."
"Why emerald though"
She gestures to the rest of the castle
"Come on your highness I think it's quite obvious, you're literally surrounded by it and it's quite easy to obtain in her world even without our help with how popular it is. For now, she can mostly just hear you unless she can gather more than just that ring, which is why Marvel is giving her some from the vault that has magical properties. With the amount he took, you two could start calling each other soon if she allows him to stay with her till they are ready to depart. "
We sit quietly for few minutes in sleights, Wait I can call her like actually talk to her face to face but that is still if she chooses to come here. I get up and start to head out of the room, my head pounding with the everything swimming in my mind.
"I'm going to call it a night and get a few things set up for everyone's arrival. Please tell me what the verdict is once Marvel calls you back."
"Good night Scarecrow, and please get some proper sleep tonight. I don't want to find you sleeping in your study AGAIN this week."
I turn back to face her as I slowly back out of the door, laughing sheepishly.
"Hehehe good night Glinda"
And I quickly ran out of her view.
As I walk through the palace I tell the head of staff to prepare 3 rooms, the ones closest to mine, for our guest and said to keep the one that was assigned to be Dorothy's bare of decorations, stating that my friends and I would be taking care of the decorations. It will be fun for us to decorate it for her once thought two get here, maybe I should ask Marvel for her measurement so we can have some clothes prepared for her. I stopped in my tracks as I thought that through, maybe I should ask Glinda to ask in my stead, I don't want to spoil my first impression of myself to be a creepier because of some miscommunication. I make it to the stairwell and begin my climb to my study, I hope she still likes the blue roses they're every, haha maybe I should try to tone it down before she gets here. I step into my study and took a sit at my desk, as I gaze at my fireplace.
"Maybe we'll see if I'm worthy of you."
Hello, my Darlings just wanted to let you guys know a few things that have happened that I didn't talk about last time.
First, your girl was somehow elected president of her University's game club. so yay (I hope) for being the leader of a group of nerds for the next 2 years.
Second, I just got a new job to help with pay the school bills that are coming my way, and that job is (drum roll) a cake decorator at Wallmart.
Last but not least, I am thinking about making this into a comic once I have the style pinned down
