"AREA 2 UNDERGROUND FOREST / PRISON - ABSU: This area is covered in fungal growths, intermixed with the ruins of a futuristic prison."[1]
Absu is the second area that Trace travels in his trek through Sudra. Much of Absu's environment is a cavern with colors ranging from green to purple to pink. There are also areas teeming with alien fungi, vines and other plant life. A notably distinct section in the bowels of Absu contains the remnants of a Sudran dungeon/prison, littered with bones and Mutants. Other sections include a dining hall, ventilation ducts, maintenance room and a hallway with lava flowing under it. The area connects to Eribu and Indi to the north, with Zi to the east. Here, the track "Otherworld" is used for most areas and "Ambient" in the Prison areas.
In Absu, Trace will meet Elsenova face-to-face for the first time, and the true depth of the problems facing Sudra will begin to surface. Finding Elsenova for the first time also grants you the Kilver.

Etymology
Abzu, Apsu, (𒍪𒀊) or Engur, is the name for a primeval sea below the underworld, where fresh waters were thought to source from.[2] It comes from the word for knowledge, scholar, or wisdom, and the word for father. Abzu is also the name of a deity in the Babylonian creation story, the Enûma Elish, who gave way to the waters.[3] It's also said as the dwelling place of the god Enki, Sumerian god of waters.
