I sighed as I saw what she meant, and blinked away a tear that threatened to fall from the corner of my eye. I had to remain strong... I gave her the choice and she had chosen, it was not my right to mess with her choice. I set her down and took a few steps away, making sure that there was at least 5 feet between us. I looked at my sweet little girl once more and tried to remember her as she was, cute and seemingly so fragile, yet at the same time so assured of herself. I closed my eyes and as I opened then the orbs that rested there where a perfect indigo, and slowly only on I started to channel the power of the magicka that I had build up in my body. I wept as I saw her grow, knowing that my little girls would be no more, but I kept going, and even as she passed the 10 years, and the strain started to take it's toll on my body, I kept going. I felt the power within ebbing away and decided to do the only thing that I possibly could do, sacrifice some of my own life's energy to aid her in her grow, the trade seemed fair, 4 years of me, for 4 years of her.... I closed my eyes, trying to make the process go as smoothly as possible, and it suceeded quite well, when I opened my eyes, she stood there, but much taller as I remembered... something was amiss.
I looked down and almost cried out in shock, the ground, it was so close, something had gone ohh soo terribly wrong. I tried to remember how large the trees had been when I started, but I couldn't... I tried to remember how large anything had been before I remembered, but I just couldn't. The best I could do was make a guess for my height, and that guess wasn't too good.... I seemed to be around 3'0".....
