Does Gilgamesh fulfill his quest? Yes, he does. It is Gilgamesh that wrote his own story in a stone tablet and. Gilgamesh is narrating his own quest, therefore, its as if he was still alive when he wrote it. This basically says that Gilgamesh gained eternal life and was able to tell his story on the stone tablets of how he survived death. However, it is quite inexplicable how Gilgamesh "dies" at the netherworld or in a sense, accepts his death.
