The former Nome King Ruggedo, seeking vengeance against the Emerald City, allies himself with Kiki in order to conquer Oz. They play havoc with their magic, but eventually the Wizard prevails. And Ozma’s birthday is celebrated; she’s given the gift of a magical flower, obtained at great effort from an unusual island.
