Chapter 297 When the Makeup Girl Meets the Priests (2)
Marduk is the god of Babylon. The Babylonians believe the king’s power is granted by Marduk, and the monks are the god’s servants. People in Babylon must get protected by the god, so they try to please him as hard as they can, hoping to obtain his grace to protect their city and country.
The Temple, as a place where Marduk comes down to stop temporarily, is a sacred place that only the king and monks are allowed to have access to it. Only on special days can the king go into the temple with his wife—in this case—Amytis, the princess of Medes to get Marduk’s blessings.
