The Sage King - Gilgamesh
“In night dwells a cresent moonlit dance”
In the face of apocalyptic times, one would expect for a city-state of such a large scale like Uruk to have fallen into complete chaos, but that was not the case at all—no, if anything, it was the opposite. Uruk was striving, full of life; the streets were bustling with people: markets filled with enthusiastic merchants, children ran and laughed with innocence, and women and men participated in dances with absolute revelry.
One would be inclined to believe they have already lost all hope and have sunk into insanity, enjoying what's left of their remaining time before they are all swept away by the impending calamity; however, the people of Uruk are actually far more sane, if anything. The reason why they are able to enjoy their lives as they are now is all thanks to one person.
“The wise and benevolent, the ever-glorious and majestic, the most brilliant Sage Ki—" cough cough
Oof. Giving out such lengthy introductions to the guest of Uruk was probably not the best idea—after all, as the king's songbird, your voice was greatly valued.
I love this look on him sm im about to go crazy.
