Description:
We travel back in time to the land of Sumer (modern-day Iraq) to relive the tale of the mighty king Gilgamesh. He was an arrogant an abusive king and the Gods decided to send the creature Enkidu, half-man and half-beast, to deal with him. After an epic battle, both opponents find themselves in awe of one another. Respect then brings a strong sense of friendship between them and they become like brothers, off to some mighty adventures.
