It was funny to start, but now it's becoming a problem... [k] @Gilgamesh We can't keep losing strength, even if it's Ishtar's. If things keep going like this, fighting Ereshkigal will be difficult... [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [communicationCharaLoop 98003003 1 5 0 5] @Dr. Roman Just what level of divinity is Ereshkigal? Is she the same rank as you, Ishtar? [k] [communicationCharaClear] [wait communicationChara] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 3] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Gilgamesh No, she's not quite on Ishtar's level. [k] [charaFace D 0] @Gilgamesh She's an old goddess like Ishtar, but in terms of raw power, she's not as impressive. [k] @Gilgamesh Ishtar was a daughter of the heavens, so she got everything she wanted. [k] [charaFace D 1] @Gilgamesh The gods spoiled her, and tended to her every beck and call. [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_5 0.3] [wt 0.4] [bgm BGM_EVENT_7 0.1] [charaFace D 0] @Gilgamesh Also, Ishtar got Enki, the god of the Abyss, drunk, and robbed him blind. [k] [charaFace D 1] @Gilgamesh That was pretty bad. It was the greatest heist in the history of the gods. It was also pretty funny, even to the other gods. [k] @Gilgamesh Enki got completely smashed, and gave all of his divinity to Ishtar. When he woke up he had nothing left. [k] @Gilgamesh Ishtar had already loaded all his wealth onto Maanna, and was on her way back to the surface. [k] @Gilgamesh Enki went into a panic and had his slaves chase after her, but the Boat of Heaven was far too fast. [k] @Gilgamesh Enki was in tears. [k] @Gilgamesh He wrung his hands and screamed, warning that a stupid, bratty girl was going to run the heavens and the earth, and begged for help. [k] @Gilgamesh The gods and humans that were watching screamed out, [k] [charaFace D 2] @Gilgamesh “Take a look at that driving technique!? Who would have thought the Boat of Heaven could be used for drift racing!” [k] @Gilgamesh “No one can catch up to that! Surely her driving mastery will go down in legend as the Drunk and the Divine: Underworld Drift! No one in Uruk could ever be faster!” [k] @Gilgamesh I hate to admit it, but even I thought so too! Ishtar had been hiding her true colors up until then! [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 1] [charaFadein B 0.1 0,-60] @Ishtar Oh, whatever do you mean? [k] [charaFace B 0] @Ishtar The Boat of Heaven's automatic transmission was broken that day, so I just switched to manual gear. [k] @Ishtar And I always carried nitro in my boat, just in case I needed it. Always. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Gilgamesh What do you think, [%1]? THIS is the patron deity of Uruk. Now do you understand how I feel? [k] ?1:I'm starting to think that the curse is a divine punishment. ?2:Ishtar is such a free spirit. ?! [charaFace D 1] @Gilgamesh In the end, the Boat of Heaven had engine trouble and stalled just before the harbor in Uruk. Tragedy was averted in the nick of time. [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_7 1.0] @Gilgamesh As you can see, this is the story of Ishtar, a goddess who coveted everything she saw. On the other hand, [charaFace D 0]Ereshkigal did not desire anything. [k] [bgm BGM_EVENT_11 0.1] @Gilgamesh ...When the underworld was created, she was sent to become its ruler and foundation. [k] @Gilgamesh Someone had to maintain the underworld, and Ereshkigal was unlucky enough to have that responsibility thrust onto her. [k] @Gilgamesh Ereshkigal had only just been born when she was cast into the underworld and became the mistress of the depths of the earth. [k] @Gilgamesh She managed the spirits of the dead for tens of thousands of years without being able to spend a moment on the surface or in the heavens. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 4] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Mash That's...so sad. I wouldn't have thought to feel bad for her before, [k] @Mash but I do now. ...It's not just that she couldn't leave... [k] @Mash The worst part is that she couldn't see new worlds or meet new people. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 8] [charaFadein B 0.1 0,-60] @Ishtar ... [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Gilgamesh In exchange, Ereshkigal became invincible in the underworld. [k] @Gilgamesh Even the gods cannot go against her laws in the underworld. Just ask that tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny girl over there. [k] @Gilgamesh But outside the underworld, her special privilege disappears. She's about mid-level in terms of divinity, I'd say. [k] @Gilgamesh Also, if she's up against someone who's alive, then she has to kill them first, or the laws of the underworld won't go into effect. [k] [charaFace D 1] @Gilgamesh So the only ones that aren't affected by Ereshkigal's laws are [%1] and Mash. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [communicationCharaLoop 98003003 1 5 0 0] @Dr. Roman I see. So that's why you were waiting for [%1]. [k] [communicationCharaClear] [wait communicationChara] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 1] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Gilgamesh Hmph. Someone who's alive and can put up a fight, basically. [k] @Gilgamesh My only concern was that [%1] might get killed by the gallû spirits the moment [&he:she] entered the underworld. [k] @Gilgamesh But it seems that Ishtar prevented that. She dropped to the underworld with you and protected you when you were most vulnerable... [k] @Gilgamesh Did you get a bit less dumb? Maybe your negative qualities like debauchery and stinginess canceled each other out and made a positive? [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 2] [charaFadein B 0.1 0,-60] @Ishtar Who you calling debauched? As if! You don't know me, Goldie! So stop talking! [k] [charaFace B 14] @Ishtar And I'm not stingy; I'm financially responsible! [k] @Ishtar I have a reason for collecting jewels! Don't believe everything Goldie says, [%1]!

[k] @Mash White rice and barley rice should be a 1:6 ratio. There's no problem with eating meat, but chicken tenders are recommended daily.
