    Half the round table died in their 20s or earlier, probably

    I don't mean anything by it. Maybe it's because the entry listed their exact age when they died it got to me. I'm sure plenty of Servants did die young.

    So he's another talented genius who died because of a suspicious/jealous relative who feared he would take the top spot. Makes me wonder how he'd get along with Ushi.

    Well, remembering the quality of life & Life expectancy & all that of Old Egypt was around...30's I think?

    Living up to 90 probably was as probably a super achievement or something.

    Old-timey life expectancy is kind of misleading, since infant mortality was so high. People managed to get old back then.

    This reminds me of one of my talks w/ friends of how dogs probably see us as "long lived" trancendal beings that eventually led to some imagined skit/conversation between an old dog & his grand pups like:

    "Our clan has served the great Master for several generations...as my father before me & grandfather before him. Remember to serve him loyally & protect him for our clan will have food, belly rubs & walkies for generations more"

    ...or something like that. What I'm saying is, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people back then went "He has lived for several generations, truly he is blessed by Ra!"

    So Geronimo can use other Native American magecraft. Neat.

    Also bad David, don't get turned on by your son's wife.

Heck Enuma Elish itself being grouped into nation building authority is a big flag as Nasu is referencing the kuniumi legend of Japan where Izanagi and Izanami did the exact same thing as described in the Enuma Elish, stabilizing the planet so that it can fit for building stuffs. Even in the Nihon Shoki after Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, Susanoo is born the earth is still not fully stabilized. So it can go many different ways tbh.
    As far as I can remember there is actually no connection between Ea the Sword and Ea (deity) besides the name. They're most likely connected one way or another, but both names, Ea and Enuma Elish, are something that Gilgamesh came up witth.
    Also, Gilgamesh profile from CCC puts a distinction between what Ea (the god) did and nation-building ("Many gods began building nations after the the primordial earth was stabilized into a world where living creatures could live, but Ea is a god who performed the act of building of planet before that"), so unless this was retconned he's the one who is responsible for terraforming.
    I remember being puzzled as to who it is possible if Divine Spirits only came in existence after people started worshipping them, but now I guess everything is pretty clear. Ea is the original alien who built Earth and everyone else came in his footsteps.

    I was hoping our male Foreigner would be Randolph Carter, but I doubt that'll ever happen now... unless he pops up as Chandraputra someday. Same with Nyarlathotep, but my hopes were dashed there as well. I'm just interested in seeing where they go with characters in this class in general-- so long as we don't get any more XX's anyways.

    Ea the sword was said to be the power used by the gods when they separated heaven and earth.

    And it was Ea the god who did that.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Also its probably the planet is there, but shit is full of magma and stuffs before Ea the god do something about it.

    And then maybe Ea only do that for Sumer, creating the texture of Sumer, while other creatiom god do their creation myth on their respectice texture. Ea just do it first.

    Now that i think about it thats probably why its nation building.

    Like iunno this is a topic thatbinvites a lot of speculation
