Synopsis:
Arak finds a tapestry which depicts the story of his life. As he views the tapestry he is led to Lachesis one of the fates. The woman is enamored with Arak and soon they embrace. After sleeping together, Arak and Lachesis are greeting by the other fates Clotho and Atropos. Arak resists the idea that the fates control his destiny. After a fight with a Ker, Arak cuts his own life thread with the knife of Atropos. Clotho restores the thread, but Arak has earned the right to follow his own path. In a sign that he has now accepted his own Quontaukan heritage, Arak is given a mohawk and departs the cavern with Satyricus.
