Ozma of Oz
part 1

Ozma appears to be in the order of the Rainbow, same like Wizard. Purple Blue Green Yellow Orange Red

Purple  Chaos  Gale at sea puts Gale in sea. (sorry) Billina finds the gold key without which no Tiktok. Dorothy is the protagonist but again one of her companions is determinative. Discussion about eating live animals or dead animals. Cooking makes all the difference though Dorothy can't quite say why. They find two trees that bear prepared food. Cooked meats and raw fruits. Baked seeds (cake, bread), cheese and butter. They run from the Wheelers and find Tiktok.

Blue  Rulership  Tiktok considers himself to be the servant of Dorothy. Apparently he is wound up to be of use. They arrive at the royal palace. From the ocean of Nonexistence to the Land of Nonexistence (Ev) of which the capital city is Nowhere (Evna). Langwidere exerts her right of rulership (the ruler can do no wrong) and demands Dorothy's head. Dorothy declines the honor.

((  Getting soup or beverage out of a dinner pail is quite a trick. The top is in what may be the worst possible shape for a bottle. If it's full, only the least bit of tippance will cause the liquid to flow, which is almost inevitably a spill unless you tip it fast, in which case you have an air bubble in the upward part which will cause it to gush. It takes some practice. Dinner pails are more of a city, factory kind of thing rather than a hired hand, country thing so I wonder how well Dorothy did.

It appears as if Ev is on the East of a big island. As Dorothy looks to the East she sees the forest, sands and ocean. To the West a desert and to the North, mountains. If this is the island of Breasail, it is round. Round with a square Oz in the middle. Bit of a map below. That looks remarkably like a Theosophic Philosopher's Table. A kind of geocentric Orrery. More about that if it seems called for. Oh, and Breasail has been variously translated as "Mighty", "Fortunate" and "Princely" among others. These are derived meanings. The base word means "Enlarge". So Breasail means "Enlarged", or in other words "Really Big Island"  ))
