Title: Fortuitous
Oistrem (pensive): There must be some solution. I refuse to accept that I've come so far, and survived such misfortune, for my Name to end here.
(The scene shows the past in Susekho, with one young Oistrem somewhat separated from the others.)
Oistrem: My appearance in the world at all was fortuitous. My podmate was lost in infancy, so that I was sent into the world alone, with no natural comrade to share the burden.
