Explain how the events at the end of "The Death of Enkidu" relate to Gilgamesh's quest.

Gilgamesh struggles to accept Enkidu’s death but is also in denial of death itself. When Gilgamesh sees a worm emerge from Enkidu’s nose, he can no longer deny what is happening: his friend is dead. He sees that one day he too will die. This drives him to seek a way out, to cheat death itself..... which relates to Gilgamesh's quest for immortality.
