Which statement is a theme?
the story teaches the importance of devoted friends.
gilgamesh delivers an encouraging speech to enkidu.
when humbaba is defeated, the friends rejoice.
true friends remain loyal despite hardship.

Answer is D.

Explanation:

The theme is basically something you can learn from the story.

True friends remain loyal despite hardship.  

Explanation:

The theme is the message or life lesson that a story conveys about a topic. That message, which can be more than one, is not explicitly stated in the story, so the reader has to discover it on its own and express it in a single sentence. So, if a story's topic is "friendship" and "loyalty", for example, a message that the narrative conveys about that topic may be: True friends remain loyal despite hardship.
