He was said to be accompanied into battle by an army of rock demon offspring—born of his union with the mountains themselves.[citation needed]
He was vanquished by the heroic Akkadian deity Ninurta, using Sharur, his enchanted talking mace, after seeking the counsel of his father, the god Enlil.[2]
