A sky child rises from her hammock and stretches.

This sky child spins back and forth as she flies to the entrance of the Wind Paths, and furthermore into the cloud tunnel which leads into the paths, and as she breaches out into the open air, she shouts:

Kinn: Well, I’m glad ya asked!

Kinn: These three have been my friends for a very long time. I cherish each and every one of them.

Kinn: The earliest memory I have with her is that I met her during one of my Golden Wasteland trips. She was nearly extinguished by a krill attack, so I saved her! And now we’re companions forever!

*Kinn does so many gestures recreating how they may Uber. A right hand for the krill, and a left for Kinn themselves, “knocking” the krill out. Kinn then takes the two hands and moves them together, with the right hand now representing Uber*

Kinn: And he’s very popular among the Valley folks! Having a friendship with him is like finally befriending that one Ikemen or Ikejou you always adored from the sidelines. It was so thrilling becoming friends with the Valley’s greatest sliding champion of all time!

*You see Kinn try to recreate their excitement over meeting Akutus. The dazzled expression says it all. They then do the hand puppet thing again, recreating Akutus hitting walls and objects. They laugh so joyfully at Akutus’ flying situation.*

Kinn: The one thing I don’t really get about her is why she developed such a dark sense of humor. She always joked about death, the darkness, or dying. One time she told me that she would straight up kill both of us if we dragged her into more trouble!
