"Presumably Baal asks his sister to intercede in his favour, for we next see her again in the presence of El declaring to him: 'The puissant Baal is our king, our judge, there is none above him. . . yet he has not a house like the gods, he has no court like the sons of Athirat.' Yielding either to her blandishments or threats, the father of the gods acquiesces, and sends to Egypt for the architect-god, Kathar. In the second tablet Athirat herself, mother of the gods, recognises Baal as king, and asks El to have a magnificent palace built for him of gold, silver and lapis lazuli, so that Baal may provide abundant rain. Next we see Kathar at work, lighting the fires for his forges in the palace under construction, but Baal views Kathar's plans with concern, for the architect wants to have openings in the house he is building. However, Baal's thoughts are soon with the sumptuous banquet he is going to offer the gods and goddesses, and he goes off to visit the cities in his kingdom. On his return he accepts Kathar's plan, one window shall remain open. . .
