The Wonderful Land Of Oz

Chapter 82: (Miss Cuttenclip's Kingdom)

(Miss Cuttenclip's Kingdom)

*July 14th, 1906*

*Cuttenclip Village*

Dorothy and the others arrived at Miss Cuttenclip's home, and the home was quite beautiful as it resembled a typical house, but it was still beautiful nonetheless.

"Alright, this should be her home. Miss Cuttenclip has been living here for quite some time so that she could use the company." Omby Amby spoke to everyone while Dorothy walked up toward the door along with everyone else.

"Alright, here goes.." Dorothy spoke to herself before gently knocking on the door and after a few seconds, the door opened to reveal Miss Cuttenclip.

Miss Cuttenclip was dainty, pretty, and roughly the same age as Dorothy. She had golden blonde hair, turquoise blue eyes, rosy cheeks, and lovely white teeth, and she wore a simple white lawn dress with a pink and white checked apron.

"Dorothy! It's nice to meet you. I'm Miss Cuttenclip, please come in. I have much to show you and everyone else." Miss Cuttenclip greeted Dorothy joyfully before allowing her guests to enter her home.

The home was quite beautiful; however, it was filled with many paper dolls, crafts, supplies, and other such things that helped her create her projects.

"Woow, there's so much stuff. I wish I had stuff like that, but my name is Polychrome, nice to meet you." Polychrome spoke to Miss Cuttenclip with awestruckness while the young girl smiled back.

"It's nice to meet you as well and pardon my untidiness. This is usually my workshop as well, so expect some messes here and then." Miss Cuttenclip responded with a slight chuckle while Polychrome smiled back.

"I see that Glinda had provided you a haven but I recall you lived in Quadling Country six years ago, right?" Omby Amby asked the young girl which sparked interest in Dorothy.

"Wait, you used to live in Quadling Country? What caused you to relocate to a different area?" Dorothy asked Miss Cuttenclip curiously as well, waiting for her answer.

After hearing this, Miss Cuttenclip would walk over to where her paper dolls were and proceeded to show them her work.

"Well, I make paper dolls such as these, right? Then I would paint the faces and costumes, but one day. Glinda visited me and saw how much I loved playing with paper dolls, so she brought me a magic paper. This magic paper made the paper dolls come to life; however, any breeze would startle and scatter them dreadfully. So Glinda found this lonely place and built a wall around it, protecting my paper dolls from any breeze or threats.." Miss Cuttenclip explained to Omby Amby and Dorothy as this astonished everyone.

"How marvelous! This Glinda person sounds quite wonderful. I always hear Dorothy talking about her whenever she returns from Oz" Uncle Henry spoke with amazement while Aunt Em nodded in agreement.

"Glinda is wonderful. I've managed to create my own Paper Kingdom as well. Isn't that wonderful or what?" Miss Cuttenclip responded joyfully while everyone else smiled back as Polychrome began to speak.

"Could we visit the Paper Kingdom? I would love to see what it looks like?" Polychrome asked Miss Cuttenclip and to her surprise, the young girl nodded quite excitedly.

"Of course, but PLEASE make sure to not make a breeze or any sort of noise, okay? It would disrupt them greatly and I would have to craft them again.." Miss Cuttenclip responded while also advising everyone else to be careful.

"Don't worry, we will make sure that your kingdom is safe and sound from any breeze." Dorothy responded with a smile and thumbs up which made Miss Cuttenclip smile once more.
