Take the Lion's courage. And-Dorothy must die. I didn't ask for any of this. I didn't ask to be some kind of hero. But when your whole life gets swept up by a tornado-taking you with it-you have no choice but to go along, you know?Sure, I've read the books. I've seen the movies. I know the song about the rainbow and the happy little blue birds. But I never expected Oz to look like this. To be a place where Good Witches can't be trusted, Wicked Witches may just be the good guys, and winged monkeys can be executed for acts of rebellion.
There's still a road of yellow brick-but even that's crumbling. What happened? Dorothy. They say she found a way to come back to Oz. They say she seized power and the power went to her head. And now no one is safe. A Dark Fairy Tale Retelling: Forget the happy little blue birds. In this reimagining of the classic Oz story, the yellow brick road is crumbling, winged monkeys are rebels, and a magical land is a nightmare ruled by a tyrant.
