"...perhaps it is more serious than I imagined,..." Way to understate, Ozma.

"Ozma shall be my slave. "She shall be my slave!" I have to wonder if this is going to be like Princess Leia and Jabba The Hutt in "Return Of The Jedi".

"No one has the right to destroy any living creatures, however evil they may be, or to hurt them or make them unhappy. I will not fight—even to save my kingdom." In the real world, Ozma would be called a conscientious objector.

I so want to bop Ozma on the head here and remind her that she is responsible for many people and she can't be so dumb as to hope these bad guys will just kindly turn around.

....So Ozma is willing to use force to free the Royal Family of Eve from slavery, but not to protect her own people? Idungeddit. (obviously, this is Mr. Baum playing fast and loose with continuity)
