The Crossing as the time of the final choice 
“The more indignant god Enlil, the sovereign of wind, air and life, got, the more dangerous vortices were spinning for people in the wheel of the movement of the World, uncovering gifts of the underground kingdom and releasing demons of disease – azags. The angrier Ishkur became, the more often lightnings were reflected at the crossing, and dragons flew out from the darkness. Enki, the sovereign of the world ocean who created the human being, was arguing with them, and waters heaved in the reflection of times, flooding seacoasts. Inanna, the goddess of fertility, love, war, [bad word] and discord, also protected Enki, pointing to the Earth with her arrows, and there the land was shaking and the fire of Mushhush dragon blazed up. Even the moon deity Nanna changed her countenance in sorrowful thoughts.”
