Enkidu and Gilgamesh

Enkidu was a good friend of Gilgamesh. He looked like him but he had a hairy body and was raised by animals and Gilgamesh was a king. They both went out on a quest to achieve immortality with each other to look for a plant that could give them this power. Humbaba the fearsome demon was blocking the way to the forbidden land that Gilgamesh and Enkidu was trying to get to. Enkidu suffered a slow death from being punished by the gods because him and Gilgamesh were supposed to be rivals.
