The Nome King is surprised that Dorothy managed to restore the Queen and her children, and even more so when he discovers that Billina told him. Fortunately, Dorothy and Billina find the royal purple ornaments and restore the Queen of Ev and her children and return to the Nome King. She manages to sneak away and find Dorothy, while the Hungry Tiger, Tik-Tok, the Cowardly Lion, the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman and Princess Ozma are changed into ornaments themselves. Meanwhile, Billina overhears the Nome King and his minions say that the Queen of Ev and her children were the royal purple ornaments. The travellers decide to split up and search. As the Nome King takes the travellers into his treasure room, Billina stays behind under the throne. They had to touch an ornament to which they believed were the Queen or her children if they were right, the Queen and her children would be restored – but if they chose wrong, they would be transformed into ornaments themselves. He then offers them a chance to rescue the Queen and her children. The Nome King explains that he changed them into ornaments and set them in his treasure room. Ozma introduces herself and demands the Nome King release the Queen of Ev and the ten children. Upon hearing Dorothy's plea, the Nome King allows them to enter. They manage to pass under the giant and are eventually greeted by the Nome King's Rock Fairies. Suddenly the travelers come upon a metallic giant with a hammer. Upon being reunited with her old friends, Dorothy is introduced to Tik-Tok and Hungry Tiger and Ozma explains that they are on their way to rescue the Queen of Ev and her ten children from the evil Nome King and his Magic Belt. They explain that Toto was headed towards the land of the Nome King. Eventually, the Wheelers apologize for the behaviour and promise not to do it again. Dorothy approaches and introduces herself. Suddenly, the Tin Woodman, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion arrive, followed by Tik-Tok and the Hungry Tiger.Īs the Wheelers try to attack Dorothy's friends, Princess Ozma appears and orders them to halt. Dorothy and Billina agree that they could be lying. One of the Wheelers threatens to tear them into little pieces for stealing "their" lunchboxes. They reach a rocky hill, and climb up it knowing the Wheelers can't follow them. Upon finishing breakfast, they are chased by two Wheelers. Dorothy finds that the tree she is sitting under grows lunchboxes. Upon stopping again, they decide to have breakfast. Finding Toto's tracks in the sand, they follow them to a place in the forest where they find a warning signed in the sand: "Beware the Wheelers". Upon this discovery, Dorothy finds that they are in the Land of Oz. Next morning, Dorothy finds the hen, whose name is Billina, had laid an egg and can talk. Dorothy manages to climb in with a hen who had also fallen into the sea. On an ocean voyage bound for Australia with her Aunt Em and Uncle Henry, Dorothy Gale and Toto are swept overboard in a storm.
