She flew above the tree and held a branch, it seemed to be a useless effort, and she felt quite childish. But as the winds around her grew stronger -thanks to the amulet- She was able to make a difference, lifting it slightly higher, her wings pushed against the gravity that was pulling her down. "high enough?" she asked. -Jerome and Dirk- Her wings increased it's size slightly, causing a little burning sensation down her back as their size became larger, she pushed her wings down increasing the pressure thus pulling the tree a little higher.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Dirk was both surprised and delighted by the means in which Mina decided would be the best way for her to help in moving the tree.  Grunting with his efforts he managed to say loud enough for Mina to hear, "Seems to be good to me."  The WereBear smiled slightly as he heard that the halfway point had been reached and listened as Karnl asked, "So, what are you going to use this tree for?" It was a very good question.  One that Dirk listened carefully to hear.<br/><br/>As Nerissa had done Ann transferred the power and strength that normally would have been in her tail to her arms as she began to lift when the signal was given.  Being with all of these new people and working on a strange project that she never in a million years would have thought of on her own the Mermaid could not help but smile as she began to realize just why Nerissa loved to come out her to the surface world.  She was a little startled when some of the Were's began to change form but she was also very delighted and watched them as much as she could while still trying to keep up with her part of the work.<br/><br/>
