    Summary

    As they stand there looking at each other while panting with their own righteous anger, suddenly Madame Morrible’s words echo around them. She is proclaiming Elphaba an enemy of the state. Evil. Distortion. Repulsion. Wicked Witch. Glinda feels the words as they land heavily around them. There is resignation in Elphaba’s gaze as she appears so far away. Glinda wishes she could reach her somehow. When she catches the movement of her hand: open, welcoming, lonely. She grabs her hand and holds onto it with all her might, so she might never slip away again. “Don’t be afraid,” Glinda tells her. She means the words, but they are not just directed at Elphie, but at herself.

    Or:
    Glinda performs magic for the first time to save Elphie’s life during Defying Gravity. Instead of staying in the Emerald City, Glinda goes with her. It changes everything.

    Summary

    “I wasn’t expecting company.”

    Jaina wants to assure her she didn't come to stare at her like she's some sabercat in a cage—teeth dulled on the bars, roar hoarse and failing. Only she realizes now that this is exactly why she's come. A wave of shame threatens to crash over her, but she dismisses it. She came to deliver Veressa’s letter, and to banish the notion that Sylvanas Windrunner truly was a stranger to her.

    Staring at Sylvanas, waiting for her to rattle the bars of her would be cage, would do neither of those things for her.

    Summary

    Petals descending from the ceiling. Yennefer knew right away it was Tissaia, from way above up in her study, honoring her fallen girls. She looked at them, admired how they fell silently to cover the freshly dug graves.

    Then the pain came.

    Sharp, burning, unexpected.

    Yennefer gasped.
