The people of Uruk are getting tired of Gilgamesh ruling.
Gilgamesh keeps having dreams. He has one about a star falling and another about a ax. When he has these dreams he goes to his mother Ninsun. She tells him that a stranger is going to come.
Enkidu is a man that lives with the animals. he is like their family he eats drinks and lives with them. The hunters set traps up to catch the animals but if Enkidu sees that he will try to help them get loose. The hunters son saw that and told his dad. the hunter sent his son to Uruk to ask Gilgamesh to send out a prostitute to sleep with Enkidu so the animals would leave him.
the prostitute takes him to a shepered home where they clean him up and make him look like a man. one day when they are there a man who was going to get a bride from Uruk came.
Enkidu didn't think that it was the kings birthright to be able to sleep with all the virgins.
When the prostutite leads him to Uruk people start cheering for him and that makes Gilgamesh mad so they get in a fight.
When they get up they look at each other and see themselves.
