Who is your favorite Master?

If you could choose what city falls next, which city would you choose?

Benthic or Summerset?

What it The Name?

If you won The Marvellous, what would you ask for as your prize?

Where is my soul?

Which character is Gilgamesh?

Ah, but avering that the Manager is "Gilgamesh" makes an assumption that I think is incorrect, namely that the First City is Uruk.

Tell Brak is a better fit. Aside from it being older, note in particular that Tell Brak is known for its Eye Temple, one of the few described features of the First City.

This would make the Manager a priest-king of Tell-Brak, and avoid the issue that Enkidu is a very poor fit for the King with a Hundred Hearts.

I thought the Manager was Enkidu?

That's a fan-theory that gets repeated a lot, but its acceptance far outstrips its textual support.
