There's a time, a sad time, when up and comers ping on the radar of their heroes and find them to not be the men they imagined.

It shouldn't diminish the respect they have for their heroes, but it is the sign that they should now move out from behind them and chart their own course...except now they are on their own...there is nobody to guide them.

Exactly. Reminds me of a favorite quote from Frank Herbert's Dune "There is probably no more terrible instant of enlightenment than the one in which you discover your father is a man--with human flesh."
