The Winged Monkeys.
You will remember there was no road--not even a pathway--between the castle of the Wicked Witch and the Emerald City.

When the four travelers went in search of the Witch she had seen them coming, and so sent the Winged Monkeys to bring them to her.

It was much harder to find their way back through the big fields of buttercups and yellow daisies than it was being carried.

They knew, of course, they must go straight east, toward the rising sun; and they started off in the right way.
