Why are you made of gold? What greatness had you achieved in your life to earn such prestige?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">E: \u201cI was friend of a great and powerful man named Gilgamesh, together we slew the beast Humbaba, created by the gods.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">GTK: \u201cAh a fellow hero of battle, I fought in two wars of freedom, once to free the United States from England, and again to defend Poland from Russia.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">E: \u201cSo you truly are great as well, do you believe you will continue to go down in history remembered for such victory and contributions?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">GTK: \u201cI do, as long as the nations of the United States and Poland continue to stand, I will remain in the memories of the people for my part in leading the armies of these lands to victory and freedom. The ideals of freedom and self government that I fought for will reign for hundreds of years to come.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">E: \u201cI fear I cannot say the same about my achievements. While slaying Humbaba was a glorious deed in my time, I believe people will soon realize that my actions were against the will of the gods, and they will come to reject them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">GTK: \u201cIt is unfortunate that you will not be remembered properly for the dangers you faced. It is understandable that times change, and reckless glory seeking is perhaps not something that should be idolized.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">E: \u201cI disagree, those who do great deeds should be remembered for it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">GTK: \u201cI believe it is more important that your actions have a positive effect, rather than simply being great.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">E: \u201cPerhaps that is true, I certainly should have tried harder to stop Gilgamesh from hunting Humbaba.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">GTK: \u201cI am glad you are able to reflect on your actions humbly. It was great talking with you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">E: \u201cIt was nice to hear of your life as well, thank you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General Tadeusz Kosciuszko &nbsp; &nbsp; His actual view.
