[It doesn't really bring him any sense of joy or fulfillment. In fact, Gilgamesh was quite certain his time was much better off spent doing something else—anything else.

He'd have to be thankful for it now. At least the rose looks the slightest bit brighter for their efforts, even if it didn't matter at all.]
