Kaitlin and Annie...



Characters:


Kaitlin
Kaitlin is a 23 years old British woman, who currently lives in London. She is a brunette. She is medium height and skinny. She has green-hazel eyes. Kaitlin has the ability to read other peoples mind. Her greatest flaw is her constant craving for the cereal Lucky Charms. She works as a crime detective at a police station.

Annie 
Annie is her best friend. She is also 23 and works with her at the station. Annie has blonde hair and blue eyes. She is tall. She cannot read other peoples mind. Still she is really intelligent and is really good at finding and following clues. Annie’s tragic flaw is that when anyone says “swiper no swiping” three times she will forget everything she did for the past five minutes.
Kaitlin is very different from Annie. Annie wears really casual outfits, like jeans and a T-shirt. She likes to accessorize, adding different shoes and jewlery; like a necklace. On the other hand Kaitlin has a style that is more vouge. She is verry classy and elegant.

It Is Just Like... Tablets IX and X

At the beginig of tablet IX, Gilgamesh says that he would seek Utnapishtim, because he was the only man who might be able to tell him how death could be avoided. This reminded me of a story someone told me. In the story there was a man, and he was warned by death that he would die in three days. The man got scared. He thought that death was trying to give him a warning so he could find a way to avoid it. Then the man went on a journey to find a king. This king was the only one who could tell him how death could be avoided. When he got there the king was  actually death, and the man died. I do not really remember the end that well but I believe it went like that.

 Later on when he passes through the mountain it reminded me of one of the Percy Jackson books. a girl called Zoe is telling a story about a mountain that she and her sisters garded, they had to protect a lion skin, but Zoe helped Hercules get it, she helped him get through the mountain. Just like the beast let Gilgamesh go in.

After this Gilgamesh is passing through the waters of death, with a man on a little boat. This reminds me of Hercules. It is like when Hades gets on the boat and passes with the "boat guide" through the water. In this water there are souls of the dead, so it is like "the waters of death".
