Fate Remastered: The Epic of Gilgamesh.

Born during the moment the sun set. The world itself awoke, to greet your entrance. The Sun rose, great, golden, flaming, and did not set until the darkest hours of the night. In its wake, the moon rose, opalescent, glowing white, as you cried out for the first time. The heavens watched with bated breath. All of Earth watched with bated breath. Doom hung by a thread, and at last a goddess bought a crying, screaming, babe into the world: You. Son of Lugalbanda and Rimat-Ninsun. Gilgamesh of Uruk. A man with more blood of the divine than mortal in him. Keystone of the gods. King of Uruk one day. And the First Hero. The King of Heroes.

Who is there to compare with him in kingship?

Who like Gilgamesh can say:

'I am king indeed?'

His name was called Gilgamesh

From the very day of his birth,

He was two-thirds god, one third man,

The Great Goddess Aruru designed him, planned his body, prepared his form

A perfect body the gods gave

For the creation of Gilgamesh

Shamash the Sun gave beauty

Adad the Storm gave courage

And so he surpassed all others.

- The Epic of Gilgamesh

]|[

Between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in ancient times, mankind enjoyed prosperity in life in the land from the greatest of the true ancients, that which all civilization would be modeled of , living of the rich soil spread. The land of milk and honey.

The land of mud and brick, the golden jewel of man.

Mesopotamia.

However, despite what history would later tell , especially under the lenses of Human Order, humankind was not the only one living there. No, it was not just the flora and fauna as well.

At the time, these were the beings who truly control humanity.

The Time of Divine Spirits.

People called them Gods in awe and fear.

Incarnations of a natural phenomenon with great power given "intelligence. Sometimes , they brings grace and salvation to people, and sometimes they threatens all life with unspeakable cruelty.

Those who once sat at the top of the ruler class of the planet's ecosystem...

Once...

The building the temples , offering sacrifices, and worshiping for the sake of enjoying the grace of their great power, a kind of rule system has been built to maintain peace while being placed under the patronage of the gods.

However , the Sefer attack put this system in peril.

They needed a solution.

They came up with one.

]|[

"This is a situation that we cannot overlook."

In the gathering place of the gods, the heavens. Many divine spirits gathered together around to discuss.

Despite them radiating pure brilliance and pressure, they were uneasy.

Among them, Anu, the head god, He who controls the heavens and the stars, who is the King of the gods, groaned with his arms crossed.

Now they have discussed their fate to a nearly unanimous conclusion.

A topic that was raised among the gods ,when one of the Priest Kings in Great Sumer boasted of the creation of a temple that worshiped oneself, or the fact that there were people who did not accept the belief of the gods benevolence when their city was hit by a natural disaster.

"The human beings are making remarkable progress ... a little too much progress don't you think ?"

However, the recent years are a daunting time for the gods. They still remembered when human beings were still the same species as monkeys.

Humans are now building civilizations, laying laws, and continuing to operate under human-specific rules, rather than teaching themselves, and they are making progress little by little. Laying their own beliefs on the [ World ].

They saw the crisis coming a mile way.

Gratitude and prayer to the gods disappears due with the birth of convenience, and human beings do not *have* to benefit from the gods but by their own power.

"How long until the presence of Divinity will become an unnecessary existence for man?"

Attempted Genocide could not be done as frivolously as the old days either.

Even killing all the humans, it would only accelerate their decline. They were now tied to their beliefs in the reduced state they are now. They were born behind such people now.

No one doubted that God's rule and glory would be unable to continue.

And while Humans are short-lived creatures with personal power is also insignificant. They make up for it, with their growth rate and innovation.

"If we leave the humans as they are, the previous concerns can become reality."

The agenda of the gods gathered for was this crisis and what measures to take.

One proposed to bind humans by showing them a stronger power to worship and fear.

This was considered a stop gap measure.

There was one who said that it would be better to slowly replace the existing human beings with a new superior, and more importantly loyal , humanity.

After a long debate, the gods came up with a strategy.

One that they would regret. 

"We will create a human ruler. One who under our camp to guide humans. We control them , and through them , humankind."

"God and Man -The Linchpin of Heavens and Earth."

Thus, the gods launched a major plan that would influence the future forever.

The gods immediately set off on designing a human ruler, but there was one problem.

"What kind of person should we make?"

...

...

...

After what happened with Humbaba, they were more thoughtful about the design.

More Prototypical.

Needless to say, a person who would judge all things equally without hesitation was a prerequisite. One that they didn't know the implications of since they based it off their own mentality. The problem was that the gods at that time did not know how much power should be given or how much restraint should be given to rule human beings.

"It's an overwhelming power. Who will follow a weak leader? Might makes right , and like the beasts they are , a ruler who has the power to completely defeat foreign enemies will the people follow."

"Don't forget intellect. Intelligence and judgment are needed to draw the reins of good governance and civilization. There is no choice."

"Beauty is supreme, and in front of extreme beauty, everyone naturally kneels."

As there were occasionally disagreements with each other it would eventually develop into a fight that made full use of their Authorities. In this process, a large-scale natural disasters occurred, causing massive destructions across the world, not that this concerned them.

The Ultimate life form had been cast in the shape of a human being while equating the requests of the gods into the vessel.

Two-Third God.

One-Third Man.

]|[

This action would be considered the greatest failure in Mesopotamian myth, no, the biggest failure in mythology. Later, the gods of other pantheons would gather together and spew curses and mockery.

It was not possible for such a situation would in the eyes of Anu.

The gods, who created such divinity into the shape of a human being , created an impossible scenario.

It wasn't until many years after this did they realize this mistake.

]|[

"It'" was state of incorporeality called soul.

"It" was already awakened when the gods embarking on the physical body.

The soul acquired a clear actions before having a fleshly body, and the power to "think" to accomplish the task.

Formed from the primordial soup of the universe and not in the physical world , its resources where unlimited.

It needed a model for the Ego.

The past.

The future.

and even all the events on the other side of the dimension plane.

What was required was the perfect human ruler of the era.

So what exactly is a human being?

If we are to govern humanity, we need to know what the spirit, the platonic ideal of humanity is. That is the first task.

Observes the activities of humanity, in the past, the future, the present,

and from the gradually swelling information, it selects from the knowledge that has acquired the elements necessary for the personality, and drops it for the formation of its own personality...

Of course, there are many failures and successes in human history.

Therefore, the prototype was based on the lessons learned from the failure, and the success was interpreted as a material for further success and recorded as a judgment material.

While doing so, the work of the gods proceeded steadily, finally completing the body of the king.

By that time, the prototype had finished building a personality similar to that of a human being, and had just waited for it to be born in the land of Mesopotamia.

The first impression was important for all , especially Kings.

Certainly, most of the person's impression is decided in the first few seconds. The prototype now knew that humans in the far future have learned to advocate such a theory.

Across the globe, all manner of mythical beast and monsters stirred.

Beasts who drank the blood of men and dominated them with every breath felt a chill go down their spine. Their eyes widened and their fists clenched. Each and every one vowed to hunt down the source and eliminate it.

In the forests of what would become known as Germany, within a large cavern, a beast awoke. Rising to it's feet, it walked out and faced east. Taking an unnecessary breath, Primate Murder howled.

Deep in the wilderness of future South America, amongst a field of crystals, something akin to a spider in appearance moved. The earth around it transformed into something strange and alien due the source of the disturbance.

Amongst the ever changing mass of colors and chaos known as the Kaleidoscope, Zelretch, all of Zelretch, turned his (and in some cases her) head and simultaneously.
