{{SpoilerWarning|act=2}}After arriving in the [[Shadow-Cursed Lands]], the party will find that the armies of the Absolute are converging on [[Moonrise Towers]]. Upon arriving at the tower, the player will find several more True Souls among the tower's ranks. Proceeding inside, the player will encounter their leader, General [[Ketheric Thorm]], one of the Absolute's Chosen, holding a trial for survivors from the Goblin Camp (including [[Minthara]], should she still be alive).

During the finale of [[Act Two]], once the player reaches the end of the [[Mind Flayer Colony]], the Absolute's true identity is revealed: it is not, in reality, a god of any sort, but an enslaved [[Elder Brain]], under the control of its supposed Chosen: Ketheric Thorm, [[Enver Gortash|Lord Enver Gortash]], and [[Orin|Orin the Red]], who actually serve the [[Dead Three]]. Through the use of the [[Crown of Karsus]], the Chosen are able to command the Elder Brain, which can in turn command True Souls by controlling their [[Mind Flayer Tadpole|tadpoles]] (save the party, due to the protection of the Mysterious Artefact).{{SpoilerBlur|[[File:Absolute trinity.webm|300px|gif|thumb|alt=The Chosen of the Absolute, Orin the Red, Ketheric Thorm and Gortash, raise their Netherstones.|The Chosen of the Absolute]]}}
