After killing the soldiers Ishtar tries to run away before more soldies come.

As sleep wistfully takes over Ishtar, she begins to dream of a land of clouds. In her dream, she hears a voice calling her name, when Ishtar turns to see who it is she sees and eagle larger than life with white eyes. As the eagle begins to speak, the voice of her father Anu comes through, the godd of heaven nd the skies. Anu: "Daughter I've come to warn you regarding the path that you are taking in these territories, the kingdom of Assyria are not the same as your people in Uruk. Dangers lies in the horizon and may sallow you whole if you are not careful. I may not be able to assist you in your battles to come, so I give you this, a gift with the power of a hundred men and the loyalty that is never jeopordised, the bull of the heavens."

Ishtar makes one final prayer to her father the god of heaven and the sky, and attacks the soldiers with an epic battly cry. After killing and batteling all the soldiers who dare cross her path Ishtar manages to get the the King Ushpia sitting in his thrown. Ishtar warns the king that if he wants to live he will tell her all he knows about the person named Gilgamesh.

[[Stay hidden and find shelter in Assur]]

King Ushpia: In this battle, strength and power will get you nowhere. Instead its you mind that will be your saving grace. I will give you a riddle, that if you manage to guess I will give you the peice of information that you seek. "A girl has as many brothers as sisters. Each brother has only half as many brothers as sisters. How many brothers and sisters are there in the family?" [[three sisters and three brothers]] [[four sisters and three brothers]]
