Marduk asked Tiamat to combat him single-handedly; however, Tiamat did not have enough power to win him. To be more exact, Marduk had prepared seven wind forces to “stir up the inside of Tiamat,” which allowed him to shoot her with a bow while winds were extending her body. As a result, the arrow tore her body and then sliced her heart, which was her death’s cause.
