In the brief amount of time they spent together they built an intense friendship, even forming it into a brotherhood. Enkidu was made to be Gilgamesh's foil and he plays his part perfectly, so losing him was like Gilgamesh losing his other half.]]> 2021-09-01 17:38:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberlyallison/e4v90nhq6bgqalpe/wish/1710515742 https://padlet.com/kimberlyallison/e4v90nhq6bgqalpe/wish/1710523103 What epiphany did Gilgamesh experience when he witnessed Enkidu's death?
