Setting Description

Story
Elphaba’s birth was marked by tragedy. Her mother, deceived by a salesman, consumed a mysterious green elixir, leading to Elphaba’s unusual appearance and her mother’s untimely death. Shunned by her peers, Elphaba found solace in her magical abilities, ultimately earning a place at Shiz University.
At Shiz, Elphaba met Glinda, her polar opposite. Their initial animosity softened into a deep bond after a series of pranks and heartfelt conversations. Together, they dreamed of serving the Wizard of Oz. However, upon meeting him, they discovered his dark intentions—he was a fraud exploiting witches to consolidate power.
Elphaba rebelled against the Wizard, while Glinda pretended to align with him to gather evidence. The Wizard turned the people of Oz against Elphaba, branding her wicked. With Glinda's help, Elphaba staged her demise, allowing her to escape and work in the shadows to expose the Wizard’s deceit.
In the end, Elphaba uncovered the Wizard’s sinister inventions and liberated the enchanted monkeys. The people of Oz, now aware of the truth, celebrated her as a hero. Elphaba and Glinda continued their mission to protect Oz and its citizens.
