Today I was told by a god that I would lose my wealth. But I didn't know what he mean't. I arrived in ancient Mesopotamia and it was beautiful. A man came up to me and said that I had five tasks to get my wealth back and my first task is to learn the Laws of Hammurabi. So I got started they taught me about there ways like the stela and how they used it for writing down there laws. The next task was to farm in the field by the wall Nippure. The land is so beautiful and the soil is so rich. I planted some wheat and I had some help from the rivers, Tigris and Eurphrates. The hardest task was the achievements task. I had to do two things that had to do with the achievements. So put together a push cart and wrote down in their language an instruction manual for the kids in the village. I also had to write the priest a poem in Cuneiform. The next was to make a map of the social structure of Nippure. I wrote that the higher class people like the priest lived in two story houses by the ziggurats. The lower class people were located on the other side of the village in one story houses like the merchants. Task number five was to find out facts about their religion and to give them three of them in a report. My facts were They may have been apart of a belief in the magic of animism, There were 4 creator gods named An, Enlil, Nin-khursag, Enki. The last one is priests were responsible for the sacrifices and rituals that were essential for the help of the gods. The last task was to organize their economy with Cuneiform. So I learned how to write more and then I got a stylus and some wet clay and started writing down what they were trading and what it was worth. I wrote down how much supplies was traded and how many crops were planted in the fields.I brought it back to the god and told him my last task was complete and he said that when i wake up I will be wealthy angain. So to pass time I when to check out the village and Then to bed I went. When I woke up I was in a ziggurat with a bunch of servents around me. I was yelling for the god and no answer, I was in mesopotamia forever!!!!!!!!!!!!
