Storyboard Text
- But Gilgamesh said to Siduri, the young woman, ‘How can I be silent, how can I rest, when Enkidu whom I love isdust, and I too shall die and be laid in the earth. You live by the sea-shore and look into the heart of it; young woman, tellme now, which is the way to Utnapishtim, the son of Ubara-Tutu? What directions are there for the passage; give me, oh,give me directions, (page 17).
- Gilgamesh, you will never find the life you are looking for, you must appreciate the life you have while you still have it.
- No, Siduri, I am on a mission to find eternal life to honor my good friend Enkidu.
- UTNAPISHTIM said, ‘As for you, Gilgamesh, who will assemble the gods for your sake, so that you may find thatlife for which you are searching? But if you wish, come and put into the test: only prevail against sleep for six days andseven nights.' But while Gilgamesh sat there resting on his haunches, a mist of sleep like soft wool teased from the fleecedrifted over him, and Utnapishtim said to his wife, ‘Look at him now, the strong man who would have everlasting life,even now the mists of sleep are drifting over him,' (page 22).
- Ha! Well it seems as though Gilgamesh can't even stay awake for a minute! How will he ever obtain immortality?
- ZZZ...
- There is a plant that grows under the water, it has a prickle like a thorn, like a rose; it will wound your hands, but if yousucceed in taking it, then your hands will hold that which restores his lost youth to a man, (page 22).
- Ah yes, finally! I have found the flower of eternal life, my last chance for immortality.
