Hello Folks!

Here my very "darkstalkers" version of the Sumerian god Apsu, for "mitos y Leyendas" TCG from chile, let's wiki attack!

(Cuneiform : 𒍪 𒀊, ZU.AB; Sumerian : abzu; Akkadian : apsû) also called engur, (Cuneiform :𒇉, LAGAB×HAL; Sumerian : engur; Akkadian : engurru) literally, ab='ocean' zu='deep' was the name for the primeval sea below the void space of the underworld (Kur ) and the earth (Ma ) above. It may also refer to fresh water from underground aquifers that was given a religious fertilizing quality. Lakes, springs, rivers, wells, and other sources of fresh water were thought to draw their water from the abzu.

Abzu (apsû) is depicted as a deity only in the Babylonian creation epic , the Enûma Elish , taken from the library of Assurbanipal (c 630 BCE) but which is about 500 years older. In this story, he was a primal being made of fresh water and a lover to another primal deity, Tiamat , who was a creature of salt water. The Enuma Elish begins:

When above the heavens did not yet exist nor the earth below, Apsu the freshwater ocean was there, the first, the begetter, and Tiamat, the saltwater sea, she who bore them all; they were still mixing their waters, and no pasture land had yet been formed, nor even a reed marsh...

I hope U liked!
