Turan attacked Iran, and I, a legendary war hero, decided to join the army to defend my country. Turan's finest warrior, Sohrab, was my son, though I was unaware of this. We met in a duel, and I managed to kill him. In his final moments, he told me that I was his father. I suddenly realised that I had killed my own son. No amount of mourning could bring him back. I am broken and have decided to return to my home in Zabulistan. On the way, I see a stranger standing in my path. It is you..

Pray, who art thou that obstructs my path? Identify thyself and maintain a respectful distance, lest thou incur my displeasure.
