Title: Any Alternative
(Yme and the Wounded Oistrem ponder their options.)
Yme: This is a curious situation for the world to place me in, such is the path of Rod Spinners! Nothing is ever what most Strasmin would consider normal.
I cannot credit that I was guided this way for naught, that there is no way forward.
If neither fight not flight seem feasible, if surrender cannot be supported...
Oistrem: I circle around again on the focus of this unsavory trilemma. All my choices seem to invite disaster, and the Craisht itself is divided on the correct path.
To attack or flee is to accept doom, to give in is simply unthinkable. Is there any alternative with Precedence? Any chance at all...
Yme: Is there any chance for negotiation? Are not the Oistrem capable of reason?
Oistrem: That I could reason with the Strasmin, appeal for some better outcome?
