Motives

Between people there are some devotionals that are created and will never be forgotten not even on the day of death. In Gilgamesh, Enkidu and Gilgamesh had one that was kind of their motive. They would say it to inspire one another through battle and it would remind them of what a good team they were. They had a really good relationship in which they loved each other and they really admired one another. This is why, one of the last words spoken to Gilgamesh while Enkidu was dying were “two people, companions, they can prevail” (pg.43). After that you would think that Enkidu was no longer feeling guilty to die and that’s why he just allowed himself to die after so much suffering.
