It twas the morning after Christmas Day ; the underworld sky still radiates with lightning as always and the soothing sound of flowing lava can be heard from the window that looks inward to the couples bedroom. Soon the Tanillia in her bare form awakes all groggy and Disoriented. The day before was a climatic day indeed as she barely survived her tense interview one that could of had drastic effects on her life but luckily as the song would say, She did come home for Christmas. In her sit up position she recalled, the passionate yet tired embrace she got from her lover when she arrived. A reunion most very appreciated and thankful the two were for. At the time she could see a few wrinkles out of place on his attire from handling their 3 children and just happily stood there as she was truly happy to be home almost to the point of tears. But fast forwarding past the more "private festivities"" comes this morning as Tanilla carefully uncoils her self pout of Katterlyns sleepy arms and heads to her wardrobe to get dressed for today was declared in her mind to get something very important done, turning back to normal.

After the previous escapade making her body property of the Land of darkness has her relationship with her Lover been a bit awkward being envy and all. but nonetheless, she got dressed in a nice easy to move around outfit, licked her loving boyfriend on the cheek to wake him up and told him about the plans.

"Now that the worst is behind us, I think today we should get me back to normal no? If you leave soon we can get back in time for lunch. Let me just go do my morning routine with the kids and I will be ready to leave in an hour." She stated in a ready form. But to her delight, katterlyn insisted on following her to the nursery to observe her care of the children. Tanillia was happy to see Katterlyn tag along more when it came to the children since he was so busy with work in all. She understands that he cherishes them already but its was just nice in general to add this activity to the pile of things they can do together when the appropriate time allowed. Throughout that morning period she showed him her methods for waking them up, what tricks and tips she had to being more efficient with feeding them and getting them to quiet down before calling her small team of wet nurses to watch them while they head out. Tanillia specifically made sure each of her children Pavus, Katerina and Rosette got their own wet nurse for more specialized care and knew she that she could leave them in capable hands.

Now with arms linked and urgency in her eyes did Tanilla lead katterlyn to a hallway in the castle that she uses to draw doorways on the wall with her magic crayon. Luckily she already had a door set in place for a sweets shop in Stelonia and thus she wiggled the door handle to give way as Katterlyn being a gentleman, allowed her to step through first.

The doorway leads outside on the brick wall to the bakery inside stelonia, As its morning she could fill her nose twitch about at the yummy smells. However, today they had a mission and it was not the time for baked goods....for now... So once they had their footing did they couple go into the morning light, holding hands gently

Using a map she was given before hand, the two make their way towards an alcove a bit away where it was quiet and not that populated with housing, it was there that, they saw the guards in front of a large shinning crevice surrounded by tall gate.

As the approach it the guard in front, orders them to halt in order to explain that this area is forbidden from getting any closer to, upon which Tanillia pleaded with the guard to let her pass for she needs to return to her original form. The guard thought for a bit before inquiring first on whether she had proof that she indeed was a new form to begin with. SO in order to show such proof, first she changed into her more translucent form as golden dust continuously pours from her; a sight that put a slight unpleasant look on katterlyns face that reminded him of of a certain individual and how he drove a wedge in his plans. Anyway Tanilla them pulled out some pictures and old fur clippings of herself from seasons of shedding;s past and held them up to the guard in comparison to her own complexion.

The guard looked all the examples over and stated that these are not a complete guarantee of her testimony BUT because of her desperate desire they would allow her to pass through with the process given that she knows the risk and consequences.the one condition the guard did place is that Katterlyn would go no further from here given the safety protocol and all but he was allowed to watch from a far. Tanillia agreed with determination in her eyes for a brief moment before looking beyond the gate to see the ominous light up ahead where a bit of nervousness kicked on. Katterlyn held her hand firm and said everything was going to be okay as long as she followed the direction but warned her not to Wiggle about too much. she then smiled and gave her lover one more hug before heading up to the descend area where another guard stands.

This area has a large secure cage elevator made of metal attached to a reinforced brick lift. The guard instructed her that once she was in the lift and properly secured, it would descend at a decent pace into the river for a few seconds and then come back up. That was important to keep her hands and feet inside at all times and remind still and after she agreed, the guard opening the door for her to get inside as Tanilla could already feel the haunting aura of the river. Its bright shadowy majesty pulsating with energy strong enough to kill and she was about to go down in it but before she could collect her thoughts the guard turned the lift on and down she went.

Her mind was racing with uncertainly as the more down she went the colder it got, despite the river not being made of literal water, the pourus nature of the light and surroundings enter her personal space, latching onto her body like a disinfectant would to an open wound and searched her body and soul for what was not natural to her. The process felt eerie as the river pulled the smokey form for her body all while the elevator as beginning to bring her back up.

Her head felt a bit dizzy, and her body clock disoriented forgetting how long she was really down there but by the time she was back up from the river she her legs felt a need to readjust the guard now telling her that it was over and she was only there for a few seconds.feeling the need a bit woozily Katterlyn rushed in to catch her fall disobeying the order to stand from his spot but they beguilingly allowed it as he smiled down upon his beloved. and just like that he decided to carry her back on the way home now that their mission was complete. But not before treating Tanillia to some pastries that he remembered from earlier in the day; stopping frequently to share a few tarts and sweets before heading outside and through the door back home.
