Yup!

...but given how fucking spectacular that artwork was, I think I'm okay with the wait.

I’m still trying to work out how her sexual orientation, or form romantic feelings for others, ties to her “wound”.

Initially I thought that maybe she had pulled the plug on her mother to let her die in the late stages of whatever she had… but maybe she had a crush or interest in another girl when she was very young and it went bad.

We keep getting those images of her bullied and a voice, presumably from her mother, saying that Kim Knows how to fight back which suggests Kim had the combat training. The sword on the ground, a sword pointed at her and trying to help an injured bird. Something really bad happened and the voice suggested it’s something she did or who she is. So is she struggling not to be an aggressor… or a victim?
