Fics like The Other Road

When the story of Gilgamesh and Enkidu's journey to the great cedar forest was told in later years, the story was always told as if it were just great Gilgamesh and his faithful Enkidu crossing the seven mountain ranges alone, but that was not how it was at all. There were fifty men and women of Uruk, and his lover's sisters besides. Enkidu could not have said why he did what he did in the great forest. He knew Gilgamesh acted so that he might live forever. Enkidu would have wished for the story to be that Gilgamesh survived the curse of the gods and Enkidu died, but he was not any part god, and could not command how the narrative would be told.
