Early in the morning, Gilgamesh opened his eyes and took a look at the temple in the distance from his window as usual. After discovering that there was no fluctuation of divine power in the temple, he immediately started cursing.
That useless goddess went crazy somewhere and didn't come back to the city all day long.
His relationship with Ishtar is easy to describe anyway.
He is unhappy with Ishtar, and Ishtar should not see him - even if he is the son of Ishtar's best friend.
This woman is just as bad as her irresponsible mother.
He picked up a glass of water, took a sip to moisten his throat, walked to the window, and then he saw——
Two large white pieces were walking along the road towards Ishtar's temple.
"Pfft--" Gilgamesh spurted out a mouthful of water.
Why are they going to Ishtar's temple?
"Siduri!" he shouted.
There was silence for a while in the corridor, and then the sound of a quick trot was heard.
"king."
Siduri rushed to Gilgamesh's side and knelt down on one knee respectfully.
She was still a little confused now. She was still sorting out the clay tablets with Lu Silan, when Gilgamesh suddenly roared and called her over.
"Why are Ananu and Enkidu going to Ishtar's temple?" He frowned and looked at Siduri.
"This" happened suddenly, and Siduli didn't know what happened.
But after thinking about it, she thought of a possibility.
"King, although I don't know clearly, I have a guess." Siduli said directly to Gilgamesh without any concealment or delay, "They may have gone to visit Lord Kurgalu and Lord Galatulu. .”
"Kulgalugaratulu?" Gilgamesh was stunned, "Why are they looking for these two people?"
He must know these two. Enki's creations were the duo who went to the underworld to pick up Ishtar. They followed Ishtar after he came out of the underworld, but Ishtar Shitar's temper could not be calmed down, and he was running around in the sky every day, so the two of them stayed in the temple honestly.
After all, they have no desire, so they have always been honest and doing their own jobs in the temple.
"Because they told me that in a sense, those two adults are their brothers or sisters." Siduli repeated Ananu's words.
"Brothers and sisters, they" Gilgamesh was a little strange. He was about to ask, but then he figured it out.
Ananu and Enkidu, Kurgalu and Galatulu are all made of clay.
"Wait, wait until they come back." Gilgamesh wanted to say something, frowned, smacked his mouth, and shook his head, "When they come back, you go and ask."
"Forget it, just ask them to come to the main hall to find me."
"Between the weapons of gods and gods, I will not speculate on those gods with any good intentions."
With a cold snort, Gilgamesh turned around and walked towards the main hall without paying any more attention.
Ananu and Enkidu have met Kurgalu and Galatulu.
Kurgalu and Galatulu sit on one side, with identical faces, both male and female.
Ananu and Enkidu sat on the other side, their faces equally identical, both male and female.
These are two pairs of twins, born at two different times and from the same origin.
Ah no, actually there is a gap.
At least, Kurgalu and Galatulu do not have the huge magic power and powerful strength of Ananu and Enkidu.
But they have stronger life force and the right to enter and exit the underworld freely.
"Why are you looking for us? Mud from the abyss like us."
As the elder brother of the twins, Kurgalu took the initiative to ask the two of them.
"Just here for a visit." Ananu said with a chuckle, "Let's see what kind of brother can bring the goddess Ishtar back from the underworld."
"Beautiful people, please withdraw your praise for us." Galatulu's handsome face showed no expression as he nodded gently to Ananu and Enkidu, "That is the Father God we are waiting for. It is Enki’s merits, not mine and my brother’s.”
"Please don't underestimate yourself, Galatulu." Enkidu said with a smile, "If you hadn't ventured into the underworld and advised Ereshkigal, the queen of the underworld, the goddess Ishtar would not have returned safely."
Kurgalu and Galatulu looked at each other.
Without saying anything more, the two stood up.
"Thank you for coming to visit us, brothers from the same place as us." Kurgalu bowed slightly to Ananu and Enkidu, "But you should fulfill your responsibilities now."
"As the Key of the Sky, it is the responsibility of the Lock of the Sky." Galatulu said after taking over Kurgalu's words.
"We will." Ananu and Enkidu replied together.
After walking out of Ishtar's temple, the two of them sighed together.
"They are different from us." Ananu looked back at Ishtar's temple and shook his head slightly.
"They have no intelligence." Enkidu looked a little disappointed.
Yes, Kurgalu and Galatulu, there is no understanding.
God Enki did not add this function when he created them.
They were just disposable tools to bring Ishtar back from the underworld.
In fact, Ananu and Enkidu are the same, but Ananu and Enkidu's tasks are more difficult.
The differences don't stop there.
Ananu and Enki are both "genderless", but they can change their gender and appearance through transfiguration. They can have the appearance of anyone, or even any creature.
But Kurgalu and Galatulu have no gender. They have no gender of their own. They are neither men, nor women, nor any other gender.
"Are you pitying them? Ananu?" Enkidu noticed that Ananu was in a low mood and asked.
"Maybe there are some." Ananu walked a little weakly and looked unhappy. "After all, they are the same as us, at least they have the same origin."
"I didn't expect you to be in such a mood. It's really strange." Enkidu chuckled.
"This is something you only get after getting along with humans. I don't think it's strange." Ananu shrugged.
As the two walked, they saw Siduli standing at the door of the temple from a long distance away.
"It seems that the king wants to find us." Enkidu raised his eyes.
Would contacting Ishtar's temple really make King Gilgamesh wary?
"Let's go and see him." Ananu just smiled softly, "Let's see what answer he will give us after thinking about it for several days."
