The Creation of Enkidu


— Matter is being created and molded – no longer a beast, not yet a man. It recalls Gilgamesh, but he possesses a greater rage.

— And a greater innocence. Be not deceived, he is still an animal. And what should such a horror hatch unto the world?

— The only way to break Gilgamesh is for him to be conquered by his own reflection. Enkidu.

— Odd, this reflection. When you gaze into a pool, you see your face blur, not grow clearer.
