Gilgamesh the Hero

The story of Gilgamesh is a story of a hero to me. I think a hero is someone who is very brave. The reason I think Gilgamesh is a hero because he left on a long journey. Even though he didnt know where he was going and if he would make it back home. The demon was a dangures scary creature. Even though on one had really seen the deamon before he still belived in himself to be able to kill it. He thought it was something important to do for the people of his city. I think that a hero is someone who cares alot about other peoples needs even though they are scared for themselves. Gilgamesh put the citys needs in front of his own safty when he thought that the journey was going to be a long and dangures one. He was also going to put his safty and his friend at risk. The reason i think that the people of the city made Gilgamesh king was because he could take care of his city and portact his people. Heros make good leaders i think because they put other peoples needs and safty first.
