Well this happens light seems to react strangely, making the wearer semi transparent, and making visible sporadic imagery of each layer of the users organs, moving from: skeleton with organs, cross sections of bones, muscles, fats, organs, brain, eyes, blood vessels and all the like. The whole time clearly displaying the location the user is and will be returning to.

Harriet shuts her eyes as her shadow begins to change shape. Becoming vague and undefined as three figures climb out of it.
Harriet's oldest companions are beings of Edge and (now) Heart. They fall under the domain of The Lionsmith, thanks to their time spent spent with Harriet and her dedication to over throwing the status quo.
