Gilgamesh Update: Script Progress

Just a friendly word for the week. A Man Sees Death In Things is coming along nicely. I've only in the past hour finished Act II - at last! All that remains is the last leg of Gilgamesh's journey - though some would argue it's the first big step. To sum up the script thusfar, it looks like this:

ACT I: Gilgamesh and Enkidu are introduced, battle, and unite as brothers.

ACT II: Gilgamesh and Enkidu defy the gods, Ishtar, and slay two behemoths; Humbaba and The Bull of Heaven. Enkidu is cursed and the pair are parted by Enkidu's death.

ACT III: Gilgamesh attempts to reconcile death. He resolves that he must not die and seeks Utnapishtim and the secret of Eternal Life, only to find man cannot run from death and live his life by it, but must live for the moment as Enkidu had as a beast -and- as a warrior confronting his fears and death as Gilgamesh has to be whole with his body and spirit.

I hope in the next week to finish adapting ACT III and to begin edits and construction on mockups of the masks. More to come - keep in touch.

Live. Live. Live.
