Tiamat

Okay, so imagine you are playing a game and you are the main character. You have to fight different bosses to win the game, right?

Well, Tiamat is like a boss in a game. But instead of a game, it is a character from mythology. In ancient Mesopotamian mythology, Tiamat is a goddess of chaos and the sea.

She is often depicted as a giant dragon or serpent with many heads. Some stories say she was the mother of all gods and created the world. But then the other gods, led by Marduk, decided to fight her and they defeated her, using some really powerful magic spells.

So basically, Tiamat is a really powerful creature from ancient Mesopotamian mythology and is often portrayed as a dragon or serpent with many heads.
