first tablet ; a new world ; [ video ]
Enkidu opens his eyes. He was in incorrigible pain just a second ago as if his life force was slipping from him, yet all of a sudden the pain melts away. He is staring up into an odd ceiling. It isn't the City Palace.
"Is this the Underworld?" Slowly Enkidu sits up. His body feels light and surprisingly refreshed. He's definitely not in the City Palace in Uruk. "Where are the unquenchable fires? Why didn’t I cross the river?"
He looks around and notes immediately that there is a distinct lack of gold. He doesn't mind, but if Gilgamesh were here he'd certainly make an aft comment about how modest this room is. The bedding is surprisingly comfortable, however. He hops off the bed, and it bothers hiim how light his body feels. He takes a deep breath; the air is a little stuffy but clean and he smiles widely, enjoying the richness of his sudden vitality. He celebrates with some whoops and some jubilation, prancing around the room and vaulting off furniture.
His hip checks into a small table next to the bed, knocking the phone on it off the stand.

[ The video blips on and it's on its side. The setting is familiar; a hotel room like which one wakes up from when arriving. There is laughing and happy cheers as a young man with long, dark brown hair and mocha skin bounds around the room. He is smiling and certainly happy. ]
I am hearty, healthy and hale again! The illness is gone!
[ He continues laughing as suddenly a foot comes down and steps on the camera. The man immediately takes his foot off and the celebrations end. Several moments pass before he picks it up, holding it upside down with fingers over the lens. The camera shakes unsteadily as the man's hands readjust around the phone, causing the camera to panning around the room and over his body several times. He is naked. It steadies again with the shot mostly finger-less as the device is held close to the man's face. His eyes are a clear gray-blue and they glare at the lens. ]
What is this?

[ The effects of that mud from the Holy Grail. Yet, now that she thinks about it, would the effects be gone? Much like her Heroic Spirit status? ]
It will hardly be anything of the sort. Archer and I will cross blades again. I will claim victory once more.
[ Then he will say something stupid to make her second guess herself. Like:
You will retract a challenge? That does not bode well for your word nor your actions.
[video]
Gilgamesh loves a good fight. I'm beginning to see why he chose you.
[ Note: Enki thinks Gil is infatuated with Saber for her strength. Not... whatever Gil likes Saber for. ]
I mean no slight, Arturia of Pendragon. Such a challenge makes me eager with excitement. Yet Gilgamesh chose you as his betrothed, and I dare not slight my King. I am a fierce and proud warrior and I am sure you would find me as a strong, swift opponent. But I am a loyal warrior, and my loyalties lay with Gilgamesh.
[video]
[ ... didn't he pretty much CHOOSE her for her strength? He's totally into girls that squirm and resist him. ]
If your loyalties do lay with him, then you understand above all else that he will be upset with you for backing out of a spar. Am I no longer a fit challenge?
[video]
Unguarded tongue, sharp wits...
[ He shakes his head a little. ]
I, Enkidu, Descendent of Anu, formed first by the god of storm's hands from mire and the ground itself, will engage you in a challenge, after and only after receiving my good king's blessings.
Surely you would agree to that?
[video]
[ Enkidu... Now that is an interesting name. A story from the past that even she knows, but yet she says nothing of it. ]
Very well. Obeying your king is something I can not fault you for. Not when I would have held my knights to the same standard.
