After counseling with the Scarecrow Ozma sent Omby Amby to the palace
for the Magic Belt, and when the Captain General returned with it the
Ruler of Oz at once clasped the precious Belt around her waist.
"I wish all these strange people--the Whimsies and the Growleywogs and
the Phanfasms--safe back in their own homes!" she said.
It all happened in a twinkling, for of course the wish was no sooner
spoken than it was granted.
All the hosts of the invaders were gone, and only the trampled grass
showed that they had ever been in the Land of Oz.
