NEW STORY! "Observation Precedes Insight" 💚💖
Been working on this for a while, and it's finally time to start sharing.
Magic has always been part of Galinda Upland’s life. When she turns thirteen, her parents allow her to take the Sorcerers’ Aptitude Test, placing her in the running for a promising career in sorcery. Always one to exceed expectations, Galinda includes a letter of introduction to the Wizard with her registration in hopes of catching his attention as a future Grand Sorceress. A few weeks later, she receives a response, but it’s not from the Wizard.
Elphaba, the Wizard’s reclusive green daughter, has never known life beyond the Royal Emerald Palace. For her protection, the palace’s high walls isolate her from the world, and she combats her solitude in any small way she can. On her fourteenth birthday, she spots a pink stationery sticking out of a manila file in her father’s papers, leading to an unexpected secret friendship between the two girls.
