(LSJ) Malkavian Dementia + Reality doubt.

[Franz]

Ok, I seem to remember that when you control a minion under a
temporary control effect (malkavian dementia, temptation, etc) if
somehow he stops being controlled (banishment, reality, etc.) he will
return to his owner's (or original controller, whatever) uncontrolled
region / ash heap. Is this true? Or if I reality a minion I just stole
from another methuselah, will it go into my Uncontrolled Region?

I couldn't find official rulling on the newsgroup (but my google-fu is
weakish).

relevant card texts.

Malkavian Dementia [Jyhad:U, VTES:U]
Cardtype: Master
Clan: {-none-}
Master.
Take control of a ready Malkavian that another Methuselah controls
until your next untap phase.
Artist: Anson Maddocks

Reality [FN:C2]
Cardtype: Action
Cost: 3 blood
Discipline: Chimerstry
[chi] (D) Put Reality on a younger vampire. The vampire with this card
cannot be the target of (D) actions, cannot act (except to burn this
card), cannot block and cannot cast votes. That vampire can burn
Reality as a +1 stealth action.
[CHI] (D) Move a tapped younger vampire to [the uncontrolled
region(breaking any temporary control effects)]. The vampire's blood
counters, master cards and minion cards stay with that vampire, with
any counters they have on them (those cards are out of play as long as
the vampire remains uncontrolled).

Yes.

# Cards that go into an ash heap, hand, or library always go into
their owner's ash heap, hand, or library. [RTR 19970425]

# Temporary control effects are ended if the vampire is Banished, as
normal, so the vampire would be placed in his previous (permanent)
controller's uncontrolled region. [RTR 20000501]

Correct.
