Gilgamesh, a king. At Uruk. He tormented his subjects. He made them angry. They cried out aloud, 'Send us a companion for our king! Spare us from his madness!' Enkidu, a wild man… from the forest, entered the city. They fought in the temple. They fought in the streets. Gilgamesh defeated Enkidu. They became great friends. Gilgamesh and Enkidu, at Uruk."

But there’s a problem: Metaphor and image are not accurate descriptions of the Tamarian language’s logic. A metaphor takes one thing as a symbol for something else: Juliet’s balcony acts as a figure for romance, Darmok and Jalad as a figure for communion through shared struggle. Even though Troi means 'image' as a synonym for metaphor when she says 'Image is everything for the Tamarians,' she also implies vanity in Tamarian speech. From the perspective of her declarative speech, the Tamarians are putting on pretenses, covering over a fundamental thing with a decorative one."
