Ereshkigal sentences Inanna to death but then has second thoughts. She orders two creatures, Kurgarr and Kalatur, to bring Inanna back to the world of the living. However, Ereshkigal decrees that Inanna must provide a substitute to take her place in the world above. Inanna returns with a group of demons who escort her, but she cannot find a substitute. Eventually, her consort Dumu is chosen, but Inanna saves him by having her attendants fill the Underworld with food and drink, distracting Ereshkigal long enough for Inanna and Dumu to escape. The story of Inanna's descent and return is rich in symbolism. It explains the changing phases of Venus and the seasons. More broadly, it explores themes of life, death, and rebirth. Inanna's journey to the Underworld and her return symbolize the cycle of fertility and the natural world's renewal.
