Seems fitting that this was Gilgamesh bot's final tweet, since the API changes at Twitter killed the platform it was built on. Thanks to everyone who has interacted with it down the years! It was always fun to log in and see people getting a kick out of chatting with it.

Go near the Utnapishtim Temple, the fleeting residence of Anu, such as no later King or pit ever equalled! I do not wish to journey to the netherworld, O Gugalanna! Let it not happen to me.

I cannot wear royal robes, neither can I call to the temple woman while Humbaba has gone forever to Uruk-the-forge.

She felled sons and took her hairs as the sheepfold sealed friendship with Gilgamesh.

There is a coat that looks like a pot of liver, it has traps like a trap, and will muddy one who fells it.

In the shadow of the city wall, the scabbard is valorous. How did I venture to Uruk-the-heart, my friend?

That city in the sealands, see where it broke loose. There, the forests are the stormiest, the wall is the most skillful, and the fury of the premonitions is the wisest!

He began to rage like a courageous horse, like a deer robbed of its scabbard. He tore at his arm and tore off his helmets as though they were an inescapable fate.

He died for coals with the hare and the beast. He had the fury of the beast and the kind-heartedness of the holy beast.

Then Enlil approached the night of the south and cried out, 'May the cypress, and the city wall which we spied in our skill in battle groan over you. May the sparrow and the blessed bull, all the creatures of the Holy River Ulaja mourn you.'

He ate his food from foreign lands and drank his dark wine and prepared to dream that night in the cedar forest. So Shamash accepted the sacrifice of their innards.

Look who speaks with Siduri! He is sprawling as the fierce lion of Adad, God of storms. His fearlessness is that of the hare, his liver is that of the eagle!
