Answer:
B.) Gilgamesh answered, "Dear friend, dear brother, / I cannot kill Humbaba alone. / Please stay here with me. Stand at my side. / Two boats lashed together will never sink.
Explanation:
Stephen Mitchel's book "Gilgamesh" rewritten in a new version "Gilgamesh: A New English Version" tells of the heroic and brave deed of Gilgamesh in defeating the monster Humbaba that has been terrorizing the people.
When Enkidu and Gilgamesh went towards the forest to attack Humbaba, Enkidu suddenly became afraid and decided to leave Gilgamesh, even admitting that he doesn't mind if "<em>all men will know what a coward I have been</em>". But showing great leadership skills and courage, he tells him that they will defeat the monster together, united. By saying that he "<em>cannot kill Humbaba alone</em>", he not only shows his vulnerability but also gives courage to his friend that he also needs help from others too. These qualities all make him a courageous yet humble leader.
