Just inserting Wizard of Oz names for example.
If Dorothy fails to prove she and the inhabitants of Oz are still worthy of the land, Oz, along with everyone in it, will cease to exist.
OR
If Dorothy fails to prove she and the inhabitants of Oz are still worthy of the land Oz, along with everyone in it, will cease to exist.
Big red comma or no? I think it helps with the clarity of the sentence but commas surrounding Oz also don't look good.
Thank you for any advice.

Edited to add another question:
The stories he told Dorothy as a child hold not only the answers to the Oz's question but the very key to her survival.
Any comma's here???
Sorry I'm so inept with commas. It goes way back to a half-hearted elementary school. But I'm trying to learn.
