Chapter 4

Southern Mesopotamia,

year BC 2834, place Agade

"Sir, When will we declare our new state?" Akkad Army Commander Gulan eagerly asked Ningul in the small palace.

Ningul looked thoughtfully at Gulan, who was standing in front of him. Then he looked towards the middle-aged woman standing next to her." Nashal, what do you think about this?"

"Sir, Our population is around 9379. According to this number, we have a high number throughout the region, but this is low compared to the Sumerian City-states. Although our army is small, we have an army superior to other major tribes in terms of equipment, but we do not have the numbers necessary to defeat the Sumerians."After Nashal finished his explanation, Ningul leaned back and decided to ask Nashal a question again." Our grain enough for us now?"

"Thank the Great God that the Grain has been very fertile this Year. Right now we have enough grain to organize a big Conquest and withstand a famine for 5 years." After Nashal finished her speech, Ningul stood up from his throne to explain his decision after thinking for a while." Send a messenger to the Sumer and Kish king Etana. I will be the Ruler. Tell that I want you to recognize the authority of Agade in this land, which was established by the power of the Great God and the determined efforts of the Akkadian people."

"Of course, my king." Nashul bowed and excitedly set off to Kish city.

"With your permission, I'm leaving too, my king." Ningul nodded. Gulan bowed and left the palace. Ningul, the only one left in the palace, went out to make an announcement to his people.

Ningul calmly walked out. They bowed to show respect to the people's leaders who saw Ningul coming out. Between them 6 years ago there were other tribes that came, they looked at Ningul with respect. When Ningul saw that the people were slowly gathering, he ordered his soldiers to gather the people. After a while, wondering what their leader would say, the Akkadians looked curiously at Ningul, who was on a high place.

When he saw Lamir and the other priests coming, Ningul decided to start his speech. "We are very lucky that the great God Jehovah has given us the opportunity to live in this land. The Great God saved us from the desolate desert and saw the right to live in a fertile land. I'm thankful for that."

Some of the Akkadians were moved and prayed. The other priests knelt down and prayed. The other tribes who had just arrived in Agade felt very lucky to have a God like Jehovah.

After praying, Ningul continued his speech. "We will no longer be slaves of another tribe for a living! Now we have a City too! We have an Army! I hereby declare that from now on this City will be known as Agade! And I swear before the almighty God Jehovah that I will be a worthy king to you!!"

Akkadians they hugged each other and talked happily. The priests excitedly talked among themselves about what they would do for the Great God Decrees among themselves. The elderly, who saw that the old days were over and that they now had a state, hugged their grandchildren crying.

After a while, the soldiers began to disperse the excited people. When the Akkadians left, Lamir went to Ningul. "Ningul, we need to record the power of the Great God and our achievements on clay tablets so that they will be remembered forever."

"Do you want this? "Ningul looked at Lamir and calmly asked. Lamir shook his head." "No, when the Great God gave me 10 years of prophecy, he ordered me to record our History."

Ningul's eyes were opened. After all, if there is a Great God involved, it must be an important matter, he thought. Then, after talking a little with Lamir, he went towards the palace.

Root, unknown size

Jehovah looked at the clay houses from the mirror in front of him. the more he looked at the akkadians talking to each other, the prouder he became."Maybe in 20 years the Akkadians will rule all of Sumer."

A while, Jehovah tried to get to get out of the place where he was, but he failed every time. Jehovah can act only by using his powers. This situation bothered Jehovah for a while. For a long time he tried to find out the reason for this. In the end, He could not because there was no connection between the place where the problem was located and the material world.

Jehovah thought of the Sumerian Gods. Their powers were gods, which depended on people. They come from the Taimat, who created the world. because they were financially connected to the world, they could easily go to and from the world.

Jehovah thought that this place could be the Root, But for now he has not been able to prove it, because the Root is eternal. The Throne of Heroes are here. He thought that if Jehovah could use this advantage well, he could really be omniscient. Perhaps he could even borrow Heroes from the Throne of Heroes.

Jehovah has decided to forget about them for now. He turned his attention to the inscriptions written on clay tablets.Then if the epics that the akkadians wrote on clay tablets became legends, akkadians like this Ningul,Heroes can enter the Throne. this would also be useful to Jehovah.

"Did you call me, my King?" Gulan knelt down in front of Ningun and turned her eyes to Ningul.

"I want you to prepare the armies Gulan."Ningul said calmly. Gulan nodded, then waited for Ningul to speak."We will go out west for conquest."

Gulan, excited about the First Conquest, nodded and went out to prepare the Army..
