The King's Loyal Attendant

by StreakofEmerald

Summary

Just some Fate series Gilgamesh/Reader self-indulgent bullshit that I dreamed up in a fit of extreme thirst. Story is told during Gilgamesh's lifetime as King of Uruk, from the reader's viewpoint while writing in their diary. Reader is deliberately kept as gender-neutral as possible, so anyone can thirst over everyone's favorite asshole AUO with the help of this fic. First time attempting something like this, so don't expect anything good.

Also, God please smite me from above the heavens for creating... whatever this is.

First Entry

My parents suggested I purchase this tablet to record my thoughts during my new... career, if you can even call it that. Stone tablets are at a premium these days, so it was rather difficult to acquire one, but I'd say it was a worthwhile investment, if only to comfort me. The real problem, however, lies in carving the cuneiform onto it - I must visit a stone-cutter each and every time I need to write something down, at least for now. That shouldn't be a permanent necessity - not because it'll definitely stop being one, mind you, but because what I want to record is... unconventional, to say the least, and might make the stone-cutter uncomfortable.

You might be wondering what I could possibly be doing that could make a stone-cutter recoil.

After all, they're used to depicting nudity and sexual acts in many of their products.

Well... starting tomorrow, I am to work as one of the King's - that is, King Gilgamesh's - personal servants. A privilege, I know, though personally, I don't think of it as one. After all, my parents being so strapped for money that they couldn't afford even bread was the reason this has become necessary. And besides, the work one must do for the King is rumored to be... interesting, to say the least.

Interesting as in embarrassing. Embarrassing as in bad. Bad as in depraved beyond measure.

Now, note that what I'm about to say is only based in rumors and conspiracies spread among the lowliest of peasants, ones with such pathetic, destitute lives that they care not if the King executes them for speaking poorly of Him. However, I do believe they have at least some basis in reality, based on what I've observed.

Let's get the obviously false ones out of the way first. For instance, the King would never cannibalize his own subjects. Not even He, the infamous tyrant, is so lowly. Nor does He use their organs and corpses for rituals to summon the children of Tiamat, or uses them as pawns in a ploy to commit genocide against the peoples outside of Uruk. After all, what reason would He have to annihilate scores of amicable subjects? None, that's what.

No, what I believe to be true about His interactions with His servants is much more realistic, making it all the more frightening.

For starters, I've noted that the servants He chooses to care for Him are all of a very specific demographic - young, from teenage years to adults in their mid to late 20s, physically attractive and most importantly, all confirmed, incontestable virgins. They can be of both genders, as well. Once chosen to be the King's servant, He and they are said to engage in... well... let's call them acts you wouldn't expect of a man of such power, intended to be of immaculate character. Each and every one of them, even the men, is said to have sexual intercourse with the King, at the latter's utmost behest.

In other words, these relationships are non-consensual. Therefore, by that logic, the King is a serial rapist. Of course, that's not a revolutionary fact - He's confirmed to take men's wives for himself on their wedding days and assault them in His bedchamber - but nonetheless, it's something to note.

Another thing of note: as I said before, the King takes men as His servants along with women, though in a much more limited number. If the rumors about Him having sex with His servants are true, that would likely extend to His male servants, too. Ironic, come to think of it - homosexuality is almost universally condemned among the denizens of Uruk, yet the King, the intended role model for the entire nation-state, is allowed to do as He pleases. Come to think of it, though, it isn't too surprising. After all, He can simply execute anyone who speaks out against Him.

Nevertheless, needless to say, I fear for my own safety as I tread in this unfamiliar territory. I fit the exact demographic the King usually takes for His servants - young, attractive (comparatively; personally, I don't think too highly of myself) and virginal - and fear what the King shall do to me if the rumors really do have basis in reality. I voiced these concerns to my parents, actually, though they shrugged them off as lies with no realistic element to them. That reassured me only slightly, honestly. My paranoia still remains. Hopefully, I'll be proven wrong in the coming months.

...Hopefully.
