Kiengir is a world in Axiom Verge 2, where most of the game takes place. It is the native home to the Sagiga and an offshoot of A'ansur.
Traits
Unlike Sudra, Kiengir is a very earth-like environment (albeit with a toroidal shape, instead of the normal speroid); the sky is blue, the grass is green, and there is plenty of life. However, the vast majority of life found in Kiengir is composed of drones - machines under the control of the Lamassu who exist to protect the sanctity of Kiengir.
There are no more Sagiga in Kiengir, other than the Arms - special Sagiga who were turned into weapons, physical enhancers, and machines to fight against the alien threat referred to as Udug. The other unusual aspect of Kiengir is that there are many entrances to the Breach, several exposed and others requiring the use of the Arm Ki'Inimak to examine.
Etymology
The name Kiengir derives from Ki-En-Gir, the name used by the ancient Sumerians to refer to their world, and many of the names used in the game are Sumerian; not only that, but the ruler mentioned in the lore, Melem-Ana, was a real life king in the 26th Century. As such, Kiengir is most likely the remains of a Sumerian nation in an alternate planet Earth, which made contact with the Breach far sooner than the one Trace came from.
