her eden was a field of scarlet poppies... and gumboots on a warm autumn day

You have at least one magical art, Dorothy: you know the trick of winning hearts.
- Glinda of Oz, 1920

The Princess looked at her more closely. “Tell me,” she resumed, “are you of royal blood?”
“Better than that, ma’am,” said Dorothy. “I come from Kansas.”
- Ozma of Oz, 1907
