    Summary

    Dear whoever receives my letter,

    When I was asked if I wanted to exchange letters with a complete stranger from Gillikin Country, I was quite excited. You see, whoever you are, I don’t have all that many friends. So, this seemed like a great opportunity.

    Perhaps I should briefly introduce myself. My name is Elphaba, I’m 12 years old, and I live in Munchkinland. Before my sister was born, my family and I traveled through Quadling Country for a while, but I don’t remember all that much about it.
    I have never been to Gillikin Country though. What is it like? Do you like living there?

    Personally, I’m not really a fan of Munchkinland. I have this image in my head that there is this place out there, somewhere in Oz, maybe even in Gillikin, where I’ll feel at home. But I haven’t lived anywhere else, so it’s not like I know.
    Anyway, what I mean to say is, I would love to learn more about it.

    Kind regards,
    Elphaba

    Summary

    "All of Oz thinks I’m dead.”
    “Not all of Oz,” Glinda said. Something like shame flickered across Elphaba’s green face. “Water, Elphaba, really?”
    “You know the rumors. Apparently I’m so wicked water can melt me.”
    “Well, I can agree that you’re wicked, but the rest of the sentiment is ridiculous.”

    Ten years after the melting, Glinda gets a visitor whom she is less than pleased (and unsurprised) to see.

    Summary

    Galinda is known to neglect herself. The poor thing sets aside her own needs in favor of pleasing everyone else. Sometimes she just forgets. It's bad for her health, her beautiful curls, her anxiety. Sometimes she just needs reminders— someone to tell her to keep up with these few things.

    And really Elphaba would just prefer it if the girl listened to her anyways.

    But today is different. Something is completely wrong. And Galinda knows it.

    Elphie is different.

    Summary

    ‘Right,' said Elphaba, letting go of Galinda’s hand and drawing herself up to her full height (which, admittedly, was not very tall). ‘You all need to back off and give her some space, okay?’

    Or; Galinda has a funny turn in PE and reacts badly. Elphaba looks after her.
