Okay... So lets start from act 2. Fiyero is now a gaurd for Oz and has just helped Elphaba escape, to protect her because he loves her and not glinda.

Is the wicked witch of the west dedd?

Yes, in The Wizard of Oz; yes and no, in Wicked. Author and Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum [May 15, 1856-May 5, 1919] explained that the land of Oz had been taken over by four bad witches of the East, North, South, and West. Two of the bad witches had been replaced by the Good Witch of the North, and by Glinda the Good Witch of the South. Dorothy's house landed on, and killed, the Wicked Witch of the East. That left only the Wicked Witch of the West, whom Dorothy killed with a bucket of water. Gregory Maguire [b. June 9, 1954] is one of the writers who have made contributions to the Oz series since the death of the originator. His book Wicked, on which the play of the same name is based, creates a background of abusive interactions, and a life of emotional disappointments, that had their effect on the evolving character of the Wicked Witch of the West, whom he calls Elphaba Thropp.
