A turbine engine includes a turbo-engine, a fan, a frame, and a lubrication system. The turbo-engine includes a core air flowpath. The fan is drivingly coupled to the turbo-engine. The frame supports the core air flowpath and includes a plurality of lubricant struts that extend through the core air flowpath. The lubrication system includes a sump having a lubricant therein, a scavenge reservoir, and a lubricant strut flowpath disposed through each of the plurality of lubricant struts. The lubricant strut flowpath is in fluid communication with the sump and the scavenge reservoir. The lubricant strut flowpath of each of the plurality of lubricant struts directs the lubricant from the sump to the scavenge reservoir.
