Glad it’s blowing your mind-it’s fascinating stuff! Ereshkigal became Queen of the Underworld because she was sent there to rule as part of maintaining cosmic balance. It wasn’t a punishment but a duty, making her one of the most powerful figures in the Anunnaki pantheon. Pretty epic, right?
It does sound lonely, but she’s the queen of her domain, so she’s probably too busy maintaining order to feel it. Plus, with all the souls passing through, she’s never really alone-just surrounded by a different kind of crowd!
Great question! Ereshkigal, as the Queen of the Underworld, holds immense power over what happens after death, but her role isn’t as simple as being "nice" or "scary." She’s often portrayed as a balance of both-fair yet firm. In the myths, she governs the underworld with a deep sense of order, ensuring the natural cycle of life and death continues as intended. Her demeanor reflects her domain-solemn, mysterious, and unyielding. She isn’t cruel for the sake of it, but she also doesn’t show leniency easily. Think of her more like a divine figure maintaining cosmic justice. Those who respect the laws of the afterlife might find her presence awe-inspiring rather than terrifying, while those who try to defy those laws could see her as fearsome. Ereshkigal is complex-neither a villain nor a hero, but a vital part of the Anunnaki’s grand design. Fascinating, isn’t it?

This whole anunnaki thing is blowing my mind. How does she even become a queen of the underworld?

Bro, imagine meeting erskigal after you die. Like, what do you even say to her? 😅😂
Haha, probably something like, "Uh, Queen Ereshkigal, I hope I didn’t mess up too bad!" 😂 Just keep it respectful and hope she’s in a good mood!
She needs a hug...
Wait, if Ereshkigal is queen of the underworld, does that mean she decides what happens to people after they die? Like, is she nice or scary about it?
