History

Before First Curse
Dorothy, caught in her Kansas farmhouse during a raging cyclone, is swept away to Oz. Taken in by the protectors of Oz, the sisterhood of witches, she comes to view them as family. One night, she is confronted by Zelena, the Witch of the West, while getting water from a well. Zelena intends to get rid of Dorothy as she believes the girl is destined to usurp her seat in the sisterhood. In defense, Dorothy throws a bucket of water at Zelena; causing the witch to melt. Glinda, the Witch of the South, then appears to offer her to take Zelena's place as the Witch of the West, but Dorothy declines; wishing only to return home. With Glinda's help, she is taken to see the Wizard and given a pair of silver slippers to travel to any world. Dorothy thanks the Wizard and proceeds to click the slippers' heels three times to send herself home. Only after the girl's departure, Glinda discovers too late that Zelena masqueraded as the Wizard in order to usher Dorothy out of Oz. ("Kansas")

Trivia

  • The name "Dorothy"[1] is of English origin derived from the Late Greek name "Dorothea" and itself derived from the "doron" and theos" that respectively mean "gift" and "god".[2]
  • The surname "Gale" is of Middle English origin derived from the the Middle English word "gaile" meaning "jovial".[3]
  • Alchemical signs for the four elements are carved into the table and the stone pillars where the four witches are gathered in Oz.[4] Fittingly enough, the element of the west (downward-pointing triangle), whose seat Dorothy was offered, is water.
