After being restored, she and her brother attended the Sovereign's Council in an effort to convince the other kingdoms to unite and fight together against Tritannus but to no avail.

And soon enough, Tritannus is defeated and the mutants returned to normal. Tressa is then finally reunited with her parents and she attends Andros' party with her family.
Books[]
In Sirene - Le Winx nel Mondo Sottomarino di Andros, Bloom explains to the Winx, that she had a premonition in her dreams with two mermaids ( turns out to be Kalia and Nesia) from Andros in distress. In the undersea palace, the Winx are greeted by the princess Tressa and the queen Ligea that gifts them with a mermaid form. Ligea and Tressa introduced the mermaids Kalia, Celina (Nesia) and Tala to the Winx and they soon became friends. They all looked sweet and friendly, except for Kalia, who seemed to be acting very poorly. Tala, explained that she was the one that called them as the undersea world's ecosystem is in danger, being polluted by a poisonous liquid marine flora sick, also hitting Kalia. The one causing this is the Kraken. After the Winx defeat the Kraken, Kalia felt better again, and her and other mermaids, celebrated with joy because of the rescue of the sea.
In Perle, she appears with her mother to greet the Winx, then leaves the room and returns shortly with three objects: a pink flower, a shell and a tuft of algae, explaining to be from Tala, Kalia and Celina. As Tecna asks for how long they have been missing, Tressa says the mystery has been going for a while and they are worried. When Tecna says it was a maneuver from the witch (Vires) that is locked in Deleterium, Tressa exclaims "For all electric torpedoes!" and tells them how Deleterium was attacked and its host escaped. After much talk and Ligea's order, Tressa swims to alert the army of warrior mermaids to prepare for the possible war. Now facing the witch, Vires explains that she is Ligea half-sister, daughters of Eidonte. Him being Tressa's grandfather and Vires her aunt. In the end, Vires grabs Tressa to use as a shield against Bloom's spell, and both are spared by Ligea's sacrifice that throws herself in front of them.
