Chapter 403: The Throne Is Not What I Desire
"...Moran, can you accept this?"
Lugalbanda said, clenching his fists.
It is clear that he still cannot understand the gods' choice and harbors guilt towards his son.
Perhaps the gods see what he cannot see.

[Although Lugalbanda could deceive Moran by saying this is his decision, he also knows that perhaps this is the correct answer for the gods and for himself as king.]
[However, there is a feeling of unwillingness in his heart.]
[Lugalbanda, who has devoted everything to the gods throughout his life, will not resent the gods; he only feels that he has let you down.]
[Looking at such a suitable heir before him,]
[He is convinced that you can lead Uruk into the next prosperous era.]
[Yet, he cannot choose you as king.]
