When Kay mentioned she did not use ki to fly Mimikku fell over and began to laugh immensely. She had been so completely oblivious to the fact that she had been using wings to fly instead of ki. Smiling widely at her she wiped away a few tears as she smiled at her. Waving her hand from side to side she realized the way she must of looked to the young woman. After a few more chuckles she smiled at her and spoke up. “I completely forgot… Sometimes Kay I feel I am a complete dunce. Here let me show you what I mean.”
Taking a few moments to focus herself she would lift off the ground ever so slightly. Floating over to beside Kay she moved to sit cross legged within the air. “What I said is how I fly and how I was used to explaining it to others who are not as gifted as you are. So what I explained is how I know, but seeing as you have wings I guess that point is moot. So let us try this. Should you begin to fall you can catch yourself with your wings alright? But as for jumping I would like to ask. You know how to create the small balls of energy within your hands yes? If you do think of it as if you are trying to form one of those without anything but the force within them. Use that force to try and help yourself get across.”
Floating there she would look at Kay her face unchanging as she tried to explain this to her. She was hoping that this was going to help her as to her practical means of training was always better than trying to do these metaphysical things that others would do. Yet to her she wondered just what there was out there that she could possibly do in the metaphysical ways.

When Mimikku began laughing, Kay’s whole body tensed up. Pea laughed at the girl for all her short life so far and she’d hoped that by escaping that awful woman, forced to leave everything she knew behind to do so, Kay-El merely hoped to find people that would take her as she was. The feeling didn’t last long and Kay relaxed when Mimikku smiled and uttered a self-deprecating line. Even though she was smart enough to realize Mimikku wasn’t laughing at her, and to realize subconsciously that the woman eased her frazzled nerves like a pro, she didn’t quite catch the how’s of it and that was okay.
“You’re not a dunce,” she said, offering a small smile of her own. People, in the child’s experience, tended to forget things about others when it didn’t immediately concern them. Despite the short time spent among the living so far, she’d spent the bulk of it observing others at her adoptive mother’s request. Children should be seen and not heard, Pea would say often when company came over. Stay, don’t fidget, and listen. You never know the things you’ll learn by letting people ignore you. Despite the violent and tumultuous nature of their relationship, that lesson Kay learned from Pea proved itself invaluable time and time again. More often than not adults ignored children believing them ignorant or uninterested or, well, whatever they thought of children. She didn’t know why most adults seemed to ignore her but they did and that served her just fine. Not really the social type to begin with, being left to her own devices was usually good enough for the hybrid.
Watching as Mimikku flew without wings or, well, floated to be more precise, Kay nodded. She’d seen Nana do this before but had little interest in learning how to do it, herself. Bringing one hand up at the question she formed a small ball of Ki before letting it dissipate and looked up at Mimikku curiously. “Like that?” Taking a deep breath she looked back out over the river and the spaced rocks she had to ‘jump’ over and nodded. “Yeah, I think I can do that…” Use the energy from a basic Ki blast to help her over the rocks? Part of her just wanted to swim but the girl knew that missed the entire point of the exercise. Taking a few steps she toed off her shoes and adjusted her stance, knees bent, taking off in a running start. The moment her toes hit the first, water-slick rock she let out an undignified yelp and promptly fell in with a splash.
Damn the water was cold, she thought, pushing up and her mass of dark, curly hair that looked black when wet popped up through the water’s surface. With another big push she burst up and out of the water, wings carrying her back to the starting point.

Mimikku nodded as Kay created the ki ball with her hand. She knew that most saiyans where taught before the age of three on how to create a ball of ki energy. As she remembered a lot of the training she had been forced to undertake inside of her head. Though she blinked as she realized that was it her ememories of being trained as a young child or where those Emer’s memories deep within her mind. Or could the pair have merged into a singular memory that spun within her mind. Shaking her head she cleared the thoughts from her head as she floated over to watch Kay. She was not going to allow anything bad to happen to the girl but she had a feeling that this would be interesting. That train of thought was shortly rewarded as she chuckled to herself lightly and had a wide smile on her face as Kay emerged after falling into the water. Though this brought an interesting thought to her mind when Kay was barely moving with the tough current pushing against it.
“Kay are you an expert swimmer perchance? As if I had to guess I would say you most certainly are a champion swimmer. But that was a good first try. Though as I said the rocks are going to be slick. The reason you learn to do that little trick with you kis is that you can use any residual ki you have to vaporize the water and dry off the stone beneath you. Makes the landing a little more secure than before. Go ahead and try again Kay.” Her tone was calm and supportive as best as she could manage. As without the years of parental upbringing she had something of a natural aura about her of child raising. As Kay remerged she looked at her. Despite the kind side of her nature she was not going to allow Kay off so easy.
“Now try again Kay. As we will not be continuing with our jog until you finish this part. Tommorow though you will get to choose how to cross the river should you complete this in less than five attempts.” She was going to be lenient with this as she knew Kay was unfamiliar with the area and how many more hazards she would have to cross before they returned home.

The current was tough, sure, but nothing she wasn’t used to from back home. Despite it feeling like an age and a half, it really had been just a month or two since she left Shikk behind her. While she didn’t intend on ever going back, if she knew then where the road ahead would take her including, but not limited to, more trips to Shikk, would she have ended her training there or kept fighting to grow stronger and pushing to become bigger, better and faster than ever before? No, ‘quitter’ was not a word one used to describe her. All through her life if Kay-El had a goal, she tried and tried until she succeeded and that was that.
Kay shook off some of the excess water much in the same way a dog or cat might and looked up at Mimikku curiously as the Kagami remarked upon her swimming abilities. “Oh, yeah, I grew up in a port city and my dad used to take me boating and hiking and we did all sorts of activities together before… before he died.” There, she said it, she decided a long time ago she had to get used to saying it some day and she really tried. It was easier some days than others, today she felt a little stronger for it. Wiz’s death might have been a long time ago to most, but she still felt that loss every day.
Completely focusing on the jump, the child forgot about using her Ki altogether in trying to master the physical aspects of the task at hand. So she had to use the Ki to dry the rock? Channeling the Ki into her palm again she focused on creating a blast strong enough and tested it on herself, drying her leg and then jumping back when it worked, losing her focus and the manifested Ki as well. Tentatively she did it again until she was completely dry and with a set determination to her small jaw she walked back over to the starting point.
Right, she could do this. One at a time, take it slow and don’t try to rush like last time… she thought and leaped. Her hand came out, using Ki to dry the rock as Mimikku suggested and she landed on it Barely keeping her balance, she managed to cling to the rock and looked toward the next one that seemed even further away than this first had.
Lifting off she jumped up high, high, and started to fall, she so wasn't going to make it. Should you begin to fall you can catch yourself with your wings alright? That’s what Mimikku had said and she caught herself before falling back into the rushing waters and went back over to the starting position. If she went back to that first rock it would probably be cheating and she really wasn’t about that. Time for attempt number three.

Mimikku smiled widely as she continued to watch Kay dry herself off. It was most certainly interesting to watch the saiyan half breed do what she was doing. She listened to Kay speak about her father. It brought a slight wince of pain from Mimikku as the young girl spoke about that he was dead. “I take it that was when you started to live with Nan and started to search for your brother?”
Mimikku wanted to be careful as she did not want to tread on sensitive ground with Kay as despite her seeming maturity she was still but a child. Obviously Mimikku would have a sympathetic ear for the young girl as she had lost her husband so long earlier in her life and nearly her own life. Her hand absentmindedly went to a scar on the side of her stomach. This was the proof to herself that yes she had indeed loved and lost someone dear to herself. Letting out a slight chuckle when Kay took her advice to heart. Watchign as she tested out drying herself off with the ki before trying it inside of her attempts on the rocks. When it worked Mimikku smirked knowing that she was one step closer once again to completing this task Mimikku had placed in front of her.
Mimikku could not but feel a slight sense of pride as Kay started over. The determination from the young girl was refreshing to her. Other than Etoru she did not know any other child that was so determined to do anything like this. It was something so menial. Something that most who trained or where trained by someone would just ignore the command and yet here she was doing it without so much of an argument. As she landed on the first stone Mimikku felt her heart hold in her chest as she watched. As she regained her balance she let out a sigh of relief. Kay had listened to her and this was great to hear. “Excellent work Kay. Let us see ya get them all.”
When she was unable to reach the second and flew back Mimikku gave her a reassuring smile. “You got this Kay. You are doing better then I did on some of my first attempts. I remember one time winding up down river because I forgot to catch myself before I splashed down into the river.”

When Mimikku asked if the death of her father inspired her to look for her brother Kay shrugged and said, “No, it’s complicated…” Should she uncomplicate it? They really weren’t that close but nothing in life was ever free, and that tab included friendship. To get you had to give, to receive you had to earn, not just assume people would be nice to you or accept you for who you were. “He died a long time ago. Nana’s always lived with us,” another shrug. “I mean, ever since I was a baby, a ‘live-in nanny.’ She left with me to help me find Pin.”
Unlike most people who seemed to thrive on being center of attention, it wasn’t something Kay was used to and she didn’t really enjoy talking about herself. Children should be seen and not heard, her adoptive mother told her frequently and with feeling. It was a lesson she took to heart and learned well. When the Kagami’s hand went to a scar her eyes widened. “What happened there?” she asked curiously, not trying to pry but scars were, well, cool!
Even though she’d failed this second attempt it wouldn’t deter her from trying yet again. The words of encouragement, those she also took to heart, smiling but the expression didn’t last long. Honestly, despite her age, she wouldn’t be satisfied with herself if she didn’t get this in the allowed time period. Five tries. Wait, had she used one or two already? She didn’t ask, instead she figured she’d get it within the next three to be safe. Then again, perhaps that was a bit too lofty a goal considering her previous failed attempts. But, no, she could do this and would. Vaguely she wondered how old Mimikku was when she learned to do this but the time for more questions was later. Hopefully she’d rain down her queries in triumph, or she’d keep her silence until she could do just that.
Taking another running start she landed the first jump and then the second, using her Ki the way Mimikku told her to to dry off the rocks and keep moving, keep her going from one rock to the next. The end of her dramatic plight in sight, the last rock, she leaped from her current position and slipped, foot connecting with rock at the wrong angle and didn’t have time to catch herself this time. Splash, the girl fell into the river again, kicking hard against the current as it tried to drag her down river with it. This battle was easier won than than rocks, though, and she pushed up and out to go back to the start again with a scowl on her lips that probably looked ridiculous and petulant on one so young.

Mimiku nodded as Kay said that things where complicated when it came to her father. She could understand this feeling entirely. Yet she would not pry anymore should the young girl not wish to explain anything more on the subject. When she moved on to speaking about Nana she gave her a wide smile. “Well I think she followed you more than just because she was your nanny. I think she cares for you almost like a mother should for a child. Sure you have to be stern and sometimes harsh to a child but there are times that you should embrace and comfort the child. So I assume that your Nana has been that way toward you while your mother no so much?”
The absentminded move to the scar on her abdomen brought up a question from the young girl. Mimikku lifted her gaze up and looked directly at her. “Well this one came from the day my happiness died… My husband was a member of the saiyan council for the Empire. Basically the people who ran the Empire before Queen Zucceta and her predecessor. He was assassinated by a group of supposed friends one day with me being unable to help him. I was both his wife, bodyguard, and assassin…” Her hand moving to the blade that was on her lower back as if accentuating the point to Kay as she stopped talking for the moment.
“I was about twenty feet from him speaking to another of the wives of the men when I heard a loud crash and saw several knives all stabbing him at once. When I tried to move I found a woman with a knife jammed into my stomach right where the scar is… I stumbled away and thanks to Lilith sustaining me I managed to reach my escape pod and crashed here on Earth… What happened after that I do not know as Lilith stayed in control until after Aina had been born.” Her words where calm and yet held sadness within them as she did not like the story she had just recalled but it was an important part of her life. If not the single most defining moment of her life. As the words where done spoken she watched the next attempt and she felt a lump of excitement within her well up as Kay almost made it across but as she slipped into the water on the last one she felt it drop. Waiting for her to emerge from the water she floated over and stood beside Kay placing a hand onto her shoulder. “That was great Kay. Now try it once more just as you did before. You have got this I know you do.” She hoped these words of encouragement was all that would be needed as she then decided to watch her do it from the starting point this time. Should Kay make it Mimikku would follow her across the stones to celebrate with her.

As they spoke of Nana, Kay nodded. Yes, Ban was more mother to Kay than either her biological or her adoptive one had been. Both stern and kind, true, steadfast and consistent but not indefatigable, Nana was always there through thick and thin. Only slightly less reliable was Uncle Sam, but she didn’t trust him as far as she could throw him which, last time they met, probably hadn’t been far. “Yeah,” she said in agreement, and left the parental talk at that. Finding Mimikku easy to talk to, Kay-El relaxed, listening to the Kagami’s story with an appropriate level of sympathy on her own features.
“That’s awful, but I’m glad you’re here now to teach me…” she said softly. It wasn’t a selfish statement and if it came across that way the child was unaware of it, she meant to be comforting. Kay wanted Mimikku to be happy again and wondered if she ever thought about revenge. Kay-El often thought about it, considered hunting down those responsible for Wiz’s death, but she wouldn’t even know where to start and knew she had to have better connections before even trying. If not, well, all she’d be doing then was a waste of time and energy on both her and Nana’s part and a wasteful risk of their lives for what she considered not a worthy percentage of success. No, sometimes it was better to bide her time and wait for a good moment to strike rather than rush forward, heedless of the risks.
Of course, if she were put in a room with her father’s killers she might not have the self restraint, but so far that situation had been avoided. That situation likely never would happen by coincidence or circumstance, so for now they were safe from each other.
Having seen dead bodies before, Kay felt prepared for a lot of things, but actually seeing someone die was a completely different story. Animals, she’d killed plenty of those for food, and of course she had killed enemies in self defense but the child couldn’t imagine what Mimnikku must have gone through seeing the person she held closest ripped from her like that. “It must have been terrible…” she said softly, not having meant to say it out loud.
--
After her teacher touched her gently on the shoulder she nodded. She could do this, she really believed it, she just hoped she could do it on time. Maybe if she didn’t get it she could come back later and try, try again. If she could even find this place again, of course. Wait, once more? Try once more time? Didn’t she still have more than one try left? Or was this the last one? She’d lost count. Another nod, another step, Kay-El dried herself off enough she could make the jumps with more ease. Taking a running start she leaped high in the air, pushing Ki from her hand to propel herself off of the ground and then aimed a different blast at the rock to ease her landing.
Her toes barely touched down before she pushed off once more, repeating the process from rock to rock until she landed on the other side, grass slipping between her toes as she stumbled forward just a little and then almost fell backward from the river’s edge. Her perch felt precarious at best and her stomach gave a frightened lurch. She wasn’t scared of getting wet or falling in, she’d done both of those already more than once, but she was scared that if she fell in now she’d have to start all over again. With a blast of Ki behind her it propelled her forward enough to steady her footing. Turning, she looked at Mimikku and waved, a grin splitting her face and a eyes shining happily in the sun - or maybe that was just glare. Either way, a pride burned within she hadn’t felt in a long time.

“Every step in life Kay is a learning experience. Even the most painful of steps is one that you can learn from. The key is learning to listen to what is trying to be taught to us at every step. It took me years to learn this and to keep it within my heart and mind.” She trailed off as she watched the movements within Kay’s face and tried to understand what was going on within the hybrid’s mind. Mimikku could assume many a thing but she would not know if any would be the truth unless she spoke toward her what it was floating around within her mind.
When Kay spoke about it must have been terrible she noded toward her. Closing her eyes for a moment before she took in a deep breath and spoke up. “I cannot imagine a pain worse then that… Even dying could not touch the unspeakable pain I felt pouring through my entire being to watch my husband die like that. Yet time heals most wounds and that one is well covered and well sealed by now. Someday I would like to be reunited with him but I know that will be quite a long ways into the future inside of the afterlife.”
Her words spoke where soft and yet filled with obvious thoughtful caring. Mimikku smiled at the young girl once more as she watched her do the movements with an almost perfect rate. Smiling at her she moved across the rocks herself. Each time she pushed off with but a single leg and landed beside Kay. “Not to bad for someone who is almost fifty years old now is it?”
Admitting her general age to the younger girl brought a smile to her face as she pointed to the trail ahead of them. Turning on her heel she began to walk the trail once more. Walking along the birds had begun to wake up and the air was full of lively chirps and other noises of animals of the mountain. “I love these sounds. The sounds of nature at her finest. Everything is so alive and has not a single care in the world.”

Every step was a learning experience, huh? Like those first few that landed her in the water. Yeah, she’d learned from that mistake, right? Well, she certainly hoped so. Her father’s death, though, what had she learned from that experience? Arcosians murdered him while he was on a diplomatic mission that had nothing to do with them, there wasn’t anything left to bury from either him or his prized ship. Still, she knew better than to hate all Arcosians, so that was a lesson wasted in Pea’s opinion because, as half Saiyan, she should hate them, right? That mindless hatred was baseless, though, and Kay-El didn’t see the point.
What did Mimikku learn from watching her husband die other than what that pain felt like? Was that a necessary lesson? If lessons like that were necessary for everyone, she didn’t want to be included among the masses. Already having lost enough, Kay wanted to become stronger so she could protect the people she cared about and, yes, herself, too. If she wanted to swim with the big boys she had to act like one, or that’s what she was told all her life. You’ll never feed with the sharks if you swim with the shrimp. You simply couldn’t be in both groups and survive and eventually you had to pick a side. Kay-El thought she’d choose the sharks, but she didn’t know what the cost might be or if she’d be able or willing to pay that price. Perhaps, perhaps not, only time would tell.
As she watched her teacher cross the rocks with a graceful mastery her eyes widened and she said, “Cool!” When Mimikku spoke her age Kay-El looked up at her a little skeptically, but only a little. After all, she was half Saiyan and they aged rather gracefully, and demons seemed to, too, now that she thought about it. “Not bad at all,” she agreed with a grin.
As the two began to walk the trail Kay-El took the advice and listened, hearing the way birds and animals chirped, scurried and squeaked around them. “Why should it care? It’ll be here long after we’re not…” she said simply. “Well, probably, if no one messes with it.” The power to destroy planets was a real thing but was very rarely pulled off or exercised from what the history books indicated. Besides, if someone attacked Earth they’d have a lot of people to contend with that would defend it, people they’d have to get through before any victory could be claimed.

The cheeky grin from Kay made Mimikku smile wide at the child. The look from that of a child was something she was not used to. As most she has dealt with in the past few years where adults in some capacity. Yet every single older person just seemed to of lost that wonderous look to the world that someone like Kay still had though even Mimikku could tell that the wonder had begun to fade in her eyes cause of reality slamming down on her as it had. “It will all be here long after we are gone but here Kay do a little exercise with me. Close your eyes and listen to all the birds and animals. Then when you hear them try and sense them. They will be fainter than either of us but you can feel strength of the animals around us if you attempt to.”
Mimikku would be doing the exact same thing as she described it to Kay. Each chirp and rustle she attempted to reach out and sense the sources. Catching most of them as best that even her senses could not catch them all. She would open her eyes after a few minutes and bring her red eyes to look down at Kay. “Such words can barely bring to describe what all that is around us Kay. Every creature is precious and a part of the circle of life. Be it to become our dinner or to feast on another. Every beast has its place on this planet. Us included. We are one of the few creatures capable of cogniscintly destroy a planet. Be it through natural or unnatural forces.”
Taking a few steps away from Kay she smiled at her and another voice came from Mimi. “And where is it that you dwell little one? Do you dwell within? Are you in the light or are you going to walk in the darkness or the world?”

It will all be here long after we are gone, the phrase stuck with her as they stood, bouncing around her head and she wondered if Earth ever got lonely - or any planet, for that matter. Did it have feelings the way other living things did? Planets were alive, or at least to her understanding they were, and they supported other life with their own but who or what supported them? Were they self-sustaining? Would that resource or ability ever run out? The only thing that remained were more questions and she took a deep breath, letting it out slowly as she tried to focus on the things around her. Naturally, now that she wanted some peace and quiet and to let her muscles rest, her brain just wouldn’t shut up. That pile of leaves coating the dirt floor like a blanket drew her eye and she looked, wondering when her eyes had even opened to begin with? Concentrating on the leaf she tried to reach out to it, make contact, or do whatever it was that Mimikku described right down to a T. The child concentrated so hard on it she found herself distracting, and when it came down to it, she seemed to be blocking her own progress without realizing it. The Kagami went on about how everything was connected, everything helped each other in some way whether intentional or not because that was how the world worked. It made her mind wander, yet again, to how the Earth benefited from any of it? Wasn’t nature always giving and giving and what did she get in return? The weight and heaviness of the conversation turned denser, sinking a little bit, as Mimikku spoke of the power to destroy planets. People made bad choices all the time, but at least there were others around to hopefully keep the bad ones from making the worse decisions possible - like destroying planets. Then again, there were diseases capable of wiping out entire races, right? Did that make nature bad? It was all so confusing at times. HEr eyes opened at the unexpected question, the change in voice and tone and she knew Lilith now looked out through the Kagami’s eyes. “ I… I don’t know,” she said honestly. “ Right now I just want to find my brother and go from there. Baby steps, one at a time, right?” She was five, and she definitely wasn’t psychic with the ability to see the future - that’d be cool, huh? But alas, she didn’t have that strange power and didn’t want it, not really. Mimikku

Lilith turned her gaze toward Kay. The obviousness that the goddess was now controlling Mimikku was the emerald green eyes that looked at Kay. That and her demeanor had changed. Kneeling down so she could look Kay in the face as she spoke Lilith smiled at her. “That is good Kay. And you are right. Small steps eventually can lead to larger ones once you feel the ground beneath you becoming more and more like stone instead of sand. Finding ones relatives is a noble goal to have. I hope that your brother is safe and doing well for himself. Though tell me about him. What you remember of him at least.”
Taking a seat on the ground it was obvious that the spirit was much more calm and not wanting to physically exert herself compared to Mimikku. She seemed to want to work the mind a lot more. Listening to Kay speak about her brother she would wait patiently for her to finish. As she did so she would idly rub at the side of her head. “I came forth because while Mimikku can give you advice from her own life I. well I can give you advice to almost any topic you wish to learn about. Though I noticed that you cannot seem to sense other power sources naturally. Which is fine it took Mimikku almost forty years to learn how to do it. So never be discouraged.”

Despite her attempts at concentration, it was a no go so, when Lilith knelt to speak with her it was a welcome relief and interrupt to her failed endeavors to connect. She breathed a sigh of relief when Mimikku, no, when Lilith said baby steps were a good way to go. Well, small steps leading to bigger steps, but Kay-El followed and got more than just the gist of it. When asked about her brother, Kay sighed and said, “ I’ve never met him.” It was a quiet admission, “ But I hear he’s really cool! He’s an android, and he was on Namek recently - he’s the only family I have left so I have to find him… My pod was going to Namek on the lead he was there after I left Shikk but we got knocked off course by this asteroid field that wasn’t supposed to be there.” Space was weird, she decided, and even though things looked like they’d work out, it still felt like going the long way ‘round. No, her knowledge of her brother wasn’t much to go on, but it was all she had to cling to right now. When her teacher sat, Kay-El did as well, sitting opposite the Kagami and frowning just a little. “ Forty years? That’s a long time…” she said doubtfully, not wanting to wait that long for anything. That was like… eight times her current age? It felt like it would take a lifetime to get there, and, well, she supposed it just might. Who knew what the future held in store? Would she make it to forty? Beyond? Life was short, and she liked living that way. “ I don’t know, no matter how hard I try I just can’t get it.” Mimikku

Lilith just smiled at Kay. It was obvious just how patient that the goddess within Mimikku really was with her actions and the way she spoke. The sigh was something she was not expecting to come from her as she spoke about her brother. Reaching over she patted Kay on the back as she seemed to be down on the information she had been given. “Well as I said. Everything happens for a reason Kay. I mean had your pod not been knocked off course you would of never of met me or Mimikku. You would not of gotten to know the relative peace that Earth can bring to you. As for your brother… I got this sneaking suspicion that you will meet him soon enough. When you do just be yourself as that is all I would do if I met another goddess. We spend time speaking within a link between two Kagami. It is something of a bittersweet moment as when we meet it means we are to be used to try and help the one within we sit.”
When Kay spoke about forty years being a long time she laughed lightly. As she knew that would seem a long time for Kay-El.yet for Lilith and Mimikku it was but a fraction of their life. Their age would mean if things went to a more peaceful time she would outlive pretty much every hero of this era except the androids who could easily outlive everyone and become nigh immortal. “ Forty years is a long time Kay. Yet for a Kagami like Mimikku it is but a short part of her life. The elders of the Kagami back on the homeworld have been alive since the saiyans invaded and conquered the planet. That occurred nearly five centuries ago. As for your training… Well stop and think about this young one. You are young and have not had as much training as others have had. Many have had formal training to gain all of their abilities. You have just started down your path. A long and winding path I can see before you Kay.
