   Summary

   Morrible unfurls Glinda’s mind like a scroll, examining the contents of her memory the way she examined the displayed organs of the first fetal pig she ever dissected. It’s less cohesive than the innards of a pig. That’s the problem with memory bound by emotion. Love is diffuse. It so easily becomes entangled in every aspect of the human experience, regardless of whether the target was physically present or not. Extracting it with any amount of elegance can get…dicey.

   Summary

   "See?" Elphaba said after a beat, only needing to whisper because she was right beside Galinda's ear now. The grip of her hands around Galinda loosened, but she didn't drop them. "You won't be doomed after all. You'll be able to steer yourself home."

   "I think I'd rather have you there with me," Galinda said, without really thinking about it. “Just in case."
