Enkidu was forced to admit that the gods had been correct as he watched the boy grow into a young man.
There could be no flaw that required correction, and the only problem was that he did not submit to the gods even if he did respect them. During his childhood, he loved the gods instead of humanity, but the gods created Enkidu at that time to punish the arrogant king.Įnkidu observed the young Gilgamesh, but could not understand the need to punish such an amiable, ideal king who was praised and lauded by his infatuated subjects. He was to be the ultimate neutral party able to discern their respective failings, adjudicating from their respective positions. He was a being embodying the two life sets of life forms, with the blood of those who had ruled and the blood of those who would rule from thereon. He was sent to ensure the humans and bind the earth slowly leaving the Age of Gods. īorn with a body that was of the highest grade by mortal standards and knowledge reaching truth, Gilgamesh was born, designed, as king and the Wedge of Heaven to connect the rising humans and the fading gods. Though there are numerous kings with titles such as the King of Knights or the King of Conquerors, he is the only one in all of heaven and earth crowned with the title of "King of All Heroes." Early years īefore his birth, his father, Lugalbanda, made a deal with Sefar, in order to be spared, allowing Gilgamesh to be born. The heroes of various myths are derived from his legend, so his Gate of Babylon possesses all of their Noble Phantasms. He is mankind's oldest hero, the origin of all myths and model on which heroes are based, so his story is copied within the mythologies of all the countries of the world. His title, King of Heroes, is not meant to call him a king who is a hero, but instead implies that he is the king over all heroes. He was the King of Heroes (英雄王, Eiyū-Ō ?) who possessed all things in the world, whose tale is recorded in mankind's oldest epic poem, the Epic of Gilgamesh which portrays Gilgamesh as a hero, destined to be king and achieve great feats, who is driven to meet his destiny, facing challenges together with his best friend Enkidu. He is not merely a legend, and is said to have actually existed and ruled during the Sumer Dynasty five thousand years ago. He was a despot possessing high divinity who believed he was invincible. He was an ultimate, transcendent being so divine as to be two-thirds god and one-third human, and no others in the world could match him. He ruled the Sumerian city-state of Uruk, the capital city of ancient Mesopotamia in the B.C. The great half-god, half-human king of heros born from the union between the King of Uruk, Lugalbanda, and goddess Rimat-Ninsun.
