i present to you, your first taste of the first chapter of Wicked: For Good (ccweasley's version)
One year had passed. One year after Seraphina Emberly watched Elphaba Thropp throw herself off the balcony of the highest point of the Emerald City. One year since she’d promised Elphaba that she'd stay behind, carefully undermining the Wizard’s lies and operations. Now, as Seraphina stood on the balcony from her room in the Emerald City, the moment wouldn’t stop flashing through her mind. Guilt coursed through her. Elphaba had been flying through Oz, freeing animals to continue fighting for their rights while Seraphina had been stuck in the Emerald Palace, living as nothing more than a tool for the Wizard.
