Wicked. The Tale of the West Witch

Everyone knows about the girl who defeated the evil witch on her way to the Emerald City. But what about the witch herself?
Where did she come from and what pushed her to the side of darkness? Once, she was just... a green-skinned little girl named Elphaba, who grew up seeing the not-so-fairy-tale underside of the fairyland.
