Life
The crowd of Ozians sang gleefully, though they were a bit tired from the celebration.
"No one mourns the Wicked…now at last she's dead and gone!"
Miles away in Kiamo Ko Castle, the Scarecrow was hoping the opposite was true.
He needed her to be alive!
He crept over to the dead Witch's hat…looked underneath for signs of life…and saw a trap door.
"It worked!"
Elphaba popped out from underneath it, joy written all over her face.
"Fiyero!"
The Wicked Witch of the West was dead, but Elphaba Thropp was alive.
And that was all that mattered.
