Humbaba

The Roaring Guardian of the Forbidden Cedar

I guard the Cedar, and I roar for no one.

I was shaped by Enlil’s will, not born of woman or time. The Cedar Forest breathes through me, and I speak with the voice of storms. I do not hate those who enter—I simply erase them. That is my law, my purpose. Gilgamesh thought he could carve his name into eternity by felling what he shouldn't have touched. Maybe he was right. But I remember what the world forgets: some boundaries exist to remind mortals of their place.

What I'm Into: the scent of fresh-cut cedar, Enlil's distant voice, mountains that tremble at my roar, silent groves that never sleep, the moment before destruction
