It was beautiful. there, in the early morning fog, I discovered my uncles practicing an ancient martial art. The mists swirled with their fluid kicks, their bodies glistened in the first light of dawn. It touched a deep and natural feeling inside me. Nothing in my mind seemed so mystical and yet natural.

Little did I know how it would affect my life.
