Rae

I think that he did take the advise from the people because they did what they were supposed to and he tried to listen the best he could.

2026-01-26 20:11:54 UTC

My mom told me not to let one thing ruin the rest of my day, considering said thing only lasts like forty minutes.

I believe that he did it to the fullest of his abilities.

He listened to the advice to the best of his ability. He couldnt control everything but he did do what he could

Riley

2026-01-26 20:20:18 UTC

He couldn't control everything but he still tried to listen to the advice to the best of the ability.

Joseph

2026-01-27 19:41:24 UTC

He did not take the advice given to him and this impacted his decision to make a boat to an island to get the water of immortality and give it to his friend to revive him

Maddie

"He died for friendship and love"

Riley

2026-01-28 20:08:31 UTC

Let his lover come with him

He died honorably and tragically

Joseph

2026-01-28 20:08:47 UTC

When you die, you will be with your loved ones as a spirit, even if their dead or alive.

"Beloved brother and son."

Enkidu, tougher than stone, stronger than a wave, wilder than a storm.

Brayden

Enkidu

Brought honor, love, friendship, and bravery to the grave with him.

Carbon Monoxide from a snowmobile with old gas

A scent that brings me back to childhood is the sweet smell of homemade sugar cookies

wesley

2026-01-30 17:50:13 UTC

a smell in the morning that i cant discribe

Madix

lexusorozco — 2026-01-30 17:50:30 UTC

My childhood smell is the brownies that my grandma used to make.

Mason

2026-01-30 17:50:36 UTC

Nothing. I don't remember much from before I was 13.

Rae

2026-01-30 17:51:41 UTC

One smell that brings back my childhood is the roses and lavenders that me and my mom would grow in the back yard. We would grow these so that we could mix them with our tea to make it more sweet and to make the tea more clam in my opinion.

Maddie

2026-01-30 17:51:53 UTC

At my cabin and my grandmas house and our guest room she stays in smells like a jasmine, lavender old lady perfume. It reminds me of comfort and gives me the feeling my grandpa and grandma are protecting me.

Brayden

2026-01-30 17:52:25 UTC

A scent that randomly happens for like 0.01 seconds and it brings me back to when I lived with my grandmother like 11 years ago.

Mason

2026-01-30 17:52:39 UTC

I'm not sure I recognize this signpost in this story.

Joseph

2026-01-30 17:52:59 UTC

Enkidu warns Gilgamesh to not go into the forbidden forest for they will die "Enkidu was afraid of the forest of Humbaba and urged him not to go, but he Was not as strong as Gilgamesh in argument."

quintin

Sariyah

Apples and cinnamon oatmeal. It smells sweet and cinnamony, and like apple pie. My grandma used to make it for me every morning.

wesley

2026-01-30 20:03:45 UTC

when my brother told me that people wont remeber you in a hundred years so have fun be you

wesley

2026-01-30 20:09:00 UTC

when he was warned by enkidu "enkidu was afriad of the forist of humba and urged not to go but he was not as strong as gilgamesh in argument"

wes

Find a game that you think follows the hero's journey. What type of hero is the main character? Why?

Today's reading

lexusorozco — 2026-02-02 19:44:01 UTC

Please read pages 53-68 in Epic of Gilgamesh

Maddie

2026-02-02 19:47:29 UTC

Going through tests. its like a reminder of who they were it normally helps them during the fighting.

It helps the hero gain confidence to continue and keep fighting on

Rae

2026-02-02 19:51:36 UTC

In the text it says, " Perhaps insane, he tried To bring Enkidu back to life To end his bitterness, His fear of death his life became a quest To find the secret of eternal life Which he might bring back to give his friend". Saying that he has to tell the people that he has lost Enkidu but will try to bring him back to life...

Joseph

2026-02-02 19:55:17 UTC

A memory he has to tell some gods is that he has lost Enkidu and it shows he is as much human as others when it comes to grief.

Brayden

2026-02-02 19:58:58 UTC

Entering unknown world

"As when we can recall so vividly

We almost touch"

This is because he is feeling darkness and fear with Enkidu leaving him

Riley

2026-02-02 20:01:21 UTC

Gilgamesh having enkidu going through his head and him griefing about him. (page 53)

maddie

2026-02-02 20:02:54 UTC

Entering new world

"The word enkidu roamed through every thought" pg 53

Enkidu is like a voice in his head their in support for him

Joseph

2026-02-02 20:03:54 UTC

I took the hero quiz. I answered honestly, I got harry fricking potter lets go!

quintin thorgeirson

2026-02-02 20:06:34 UTC

gilgamesh was in grief after enkidu dies and can't get him out of his head,

Madix

lexusorozco — 2026-02-02 20:06:53 UTC

His fear of death controlled his adventures path. Then as he greived over Enkidu his fear grew further.

Brayden

2026-02-02 20:07:36 UTC

"We almost touch"

It shows he truely misses Enkidu

wesley

2026-02-02 20:08:00 UTC

when he is looking back at hunting with enkidu and it shows he cared

Kelsie

2026-02-02 20:10:28 UTC

The repetition of the friends names, repetition, but used as a way to remind himself of the name, of the person.

Joseph

2026-02-02 20:13:45 UTC

A song that I would feel would go with the hero's journey is like a fighter pilot ejecting himself out of his F-22 raptor with a rocket launcher in hand and fires it at the enemy F-22 raptor and gets back in his plane while all this is happening in the air with freebird playing

Joseph

2026-02-02 20:14:44 UTC

Devil may cry will be one that for a video game that follows the hero because Dante, a demon hunter kills demons to protect the world

the journey home because he thinks about everything that happened up to that point

2026-02-02 20:14:57 UTC

Sariyah

2026-02-02 20:18:28 UTC

Gilgamesh recalls that he and Enkidu would hunt together, that memory coming up suggests that Gilgamesh misses Enkidu

Joseph

2026-02-04 19:43:14 UTC

I think Gilgamesh becomes a hero near the end because he wants to bring back his friend from the dead.

:Maddie:

2026-02-04 19:44:23 UTC

I believe Gilgamesh is on the path to becoming a hero wanting to bring back Enkidu or possibly he could turn to a villain if no one is willing to help and he becomes bitter with revenge. Anything could happen

Kelsie

2026-02-04 19:45:30 UTC

From what I've seen, throughout the whole story depending on what the theme/lesson is. Either call to adventure or tests.

2026-02-04 19:46:19 UTC

I think gilgamesh is still working on becoming a hero

Mason

2026-02-04 19:47:29 UTC

I'm not sure, I can't seem to identify any memory moments.

Riley

2026-02-04 19:49:46 UTC

When Gilgamesh thinks about Enkidu and During the tests

wesley

2026-02-04 19:50:10 UTC

he is because he goes throgh the heros jorney

Madix

2026-02-04 19:51:22 UTC

Going through tests is a overcoming alarm that makes him help for fightiing.

Riley

2026-02-04 19:52:27 UTC

I think that Gilgamesh did become a hero because he changed his ways and wanted to bring Enkidu back.

Mason

2026-02-04 19:52:48 UTC

Gilgamesh is the hero of this story, he went through the hero's journey process.

2026-02-04 19:53:59 UTC

Gilgamesh is a hero near the end.

Brayden

2026-02-04 19:58:18 UTC

Gilgamesh becomes a hero in the long run based off of the heroes journey process. It followed the process pretty well.

Atlas

2026-02-04 20:11:01 UTC

Im not sure if you'd consider him a hero in the end but I think his morals have improved along with his reality in a sense, he's woken up to how the world actually works in a sense and matured a bit.

Kelsie

2026-02-04 20:13:22 UTC

Slowly and he got only a little better over time.

wesley

2026-02-04 20:18:49 UTC

gilgimesh is a hero near the end because he is following the hero's journey, as he follows exactly what the hero's journey tells us these stories will follow and he starts to change his ways

In some way he did, he knew what he was risking, but he still went through with it.

Kelsie

2026-02-05 19:49:31 UTC

Old things, like how antique stuff smells. I love it <3.

Quintin

2026-02-05 19:52:55 UTC

yes beckus he he has help people in the story

Mason

2026-02-05 19:59:12 UTC

I haven't been able to find words of the wiser anywhere yet...

Madix

lexusorozco — 2026-02-05 20:00:42 UTC

I thinlk he did take the advice from others because he did what he was told to do.

Mason

2026-02-05 20:00:50 UTC

I cant identify a memory moment anywhere.

Joseph

2026-02-06 16:00:26 UTC

The hero often expresses memory moments to learn from mistakes

Sariyah

sariyahs1133 — 2026-02-06 17:50:44 UTC

"Let Enkidu lead, don't trust your strength, he knows the forests, the one who goes ahead will save his friend."

Sariyah

sariyahs1133 — 2026-02-06 17:55:08 UTC

During the tests. I believe this is because while going through these tests, the memories come up in order to remind them of who they were before, and who they are now.

Sariyah

sariyahs1133 — 2026-02-06 18:03:12 UTC

I believe Gilgamesh is still on the path to becoming a hero, seeing how he wants to bring Enkidu back from the dead, but he could easily turn into a villain, if something bad happens.

quintin

2026-02-06 18:03:32 UTC

do good things

Rae

2026-02-06 18:04:18 UTC

I think that they go back to memory moments when they go through a traumatic or exciting experience.

quintin

2026-02-06 18:05:03 UTC

yes and he followed the advice

Sariyah

sariyahs1133 — 2026-02-06 18:05:25 UTC

I think he did take the advice, and he tried his hardest.

Rae

2026-02-06 18:05:47 UTC

I think that Gilgamesh can still become a hero but he is still not 100% a hero yet. I think that he will become more of a hero when they push themselves more.

quintin

2026-02-06 18:12:54 UTC

some ware in the story he got told you good

atlas

2026-02-06 18:13:00 UTC

the smell of rain, reminds me of childhood

atlas

2026-02-06 18:15:34 UTC

when he's thinking about Enkidu, though it isn't too far in the past he's still a memory.

it shows he does really care about him.

atlas

2026-02-06 18:17:22 UTC

to learn and move on from mistakes and to get motivation

Lily

2026-02-11 01:27:05 UTC

The smell of fresh cut hay takes me back to my childhood, of cutting hay with my Dad.

Lily

2026-02-11 02:21:26 UTC

" We hunted together. We killed Humbaba and the Bull of Heaven. We were always at each other's side" This shows much he misses he's friend.

Lily

2026-02-11 02:26:49 UTC

During the test stage, because this is what everything led up to and is the time where they recall all they've been through.

Lily

2026-02-11 03:51:28 UTC

Yes, because he changed for the better and tried to help others.
