Unforgettable Past - Project X-666 ( Main Story )

Long ago, the ancestral Elven Race and the direct descendants of Ehlnofey, the faded descendants of the Aedra who walked Tamriel, the Aldmer, or the 'First Ones', started to slowly immigrate from Summerset Isles.

Through new conquests and discoveries, the Aldmer started to populate different regions of Nirn.

On Valenwood, Aldmer evolved to Wood Elves.

On Cyrodiil, Aldmer evolved to Ayleids.

On Skyrim, Aldmer became Snow Elves.

On Morrowind, Aldmer became Chimer.

The remaining Aldmer on Summerset Isles became Altmer.

...

As the Ayleids developed, they started to become more and more powerful.

With power, came greed.

And with greed, came impatience.

Seeing that they were more powerful then the majority of the other races, the Ayleids started to slowly conquer the various regions.

From Valenwood in the southwest to High Rock in Northwest.

Even Black Marsh, the most uninhabitable region on Nirn and Elsweyr, a region that was only a giant desert, wasn't ignored.

The Ayleid Empire conquered almost Half of Black Marsh while 1/4 of Elsweyr.

With almost the entirety of the continent in their grasp, except for Skyrim, Morrowind, and Summerset Isles, the Ayleid started to focus more on research and development.

Since they needed Guinea Pigs to test their 'Product', they started to 'Disappear' children from their slaves, the Nedic Race.

...

6 years before Iphislia met Miraak Dragonfire and Asa Stormcloak.

Inside a facility, where everyone, even the ones working inside, didn't know where it was.

An Ayleid was walking fast on the long corridors while gritting his teeth.

His eyes, glowing like the sun yet, not as warm.

His extremely extravagant vests, his gold and diamond jewelry, it was obvious that he was from High Status.

As he was walking, he could still hear screams here and there.

Children screams.

Horror.

Fear.

Confusion.

Every single of those screams transmitted something unimaginable.

But, the Ayleid didn't even blink.

Still gritting his teeth, he forcefully opened the door at the end of the corridor.

"Why is it taking this long!?" He shouted to the researchers.

Some of them were Enchanters.

Some of them were Alchemists.

Others were torturers.

And others were murderers.

All of them were considered 'Researchers'.

What were they researching, you ask?

It all depends.

Illusion Magic impact on the psychological level.

Real Terror on the young Mind.

Real Pain on the young Mind.

Strange potions effects.

Forbidden potions effects.

Enchantment limits and their effects on unsuitable 'surfaces'.

It all depended on which 'Researcher' you talk about.

Although Ayleid's researchers are still centuries behind Dwemer's researchers on everything, Ayleid's leaders saw some future in investing in projects.

Projects such as the one that is starting.

"How much time until it starts?!" The Ayleid shouted to them again.

"... Project X-666, starting in 3... 2... 1." As a Research finished counting, he injected something with his Magicka.

As his Magicka was absorbed, various Welkynd Stones around one room lit.

Soon, the room was fully illuminated.

Inside the room, was 100 children.

All of them were Nedic.

Among the children, there were 2 peculiar ones.

Twins. 4 years old Twins.

Since they arrived, they would protect each other to the point of sacrificing everything.

They were inseparable since birth.

Staring at the twins, the Ayleid inspecting the Project smiled like a maniac.

As if a ghost was whispering him, a feminine voice said in his head, "Look at them... They deserve to serve the strong... In one way or another..."

Even though spider-like sounds could be heard in the feminine voice, it was as if the Ayleid was long gone in his ludicrous state.

Continuing as the voice disappeared, it said, "... Weaklings... Their life is worthless... Make them worth..."

Nodding his head, again and again, it was as if the Ayleid lost his mind.

"Indeed... Indeed..." He kept murmuring to himself.

Staring at the group of innocent children, he finally ordered it.

"... Pour it."

The researchers hesitated.

After all, the liquid that they would pour... was an ungodly liquid every single 'Researcher' created.

It was Enchanted Alchemic liquid made by different types of blood.

Male. Female.

Young. Old.

Mer. Men.

It was even 'Cursed'/'Blessed' by a specific Daedra Prince.

But the Ayleid didn't say the Daedra's names, so the Researchers didn't know which one was.

Of course... For the Ayleid, the liquid was Holy Water itself.

Blessed by his Goddess.

Nodding to each other, the researchers poured Magicka at another place than earlier.

As Magicka was being poured, small holes opened on the corners of the children's room.

As the holes fully opened, a strange slimy blackish liquid came out of them.

It was as if everything the liquid touched 'Disappeared'.

"... Hm?" An ignorant child said confused seeing the liquid around his feet.

"... Eh?" He said again confused as he slowly but surely fell.

It was if the liquid 'Ate' the child.

It didn't grow in volume.

It didn't glow darker.

The child just 'Disappeared' in the blackish slimy liquid.

"... Kyaaaaaa." A child screamed in horror as he started to escape the slowly approaching liquid.

"Nooo!"

"Mother!"

As more and more children screamed in horror, they regrouped in the middle of the room.

The twins were just like them.

But, one thing was different.

They weren't afraid of ****.

They weren't afraid of the liquid.

There was only one thing the twins feared the most.

Separation from each other.

As they saw the never-ending blackish liquid approaching, they knew that was it.

Their End.

Their ****.

But, it didn't matter.

They hugged each other as the abyss enveloped them.

...

Black.

Nothingness.

That was what Ayleid saw as the room became full black.

No screams.

No life.

It was as if there was no life there, to begin with.

'... A Failure?' He asked himself in incredible disappointment.

After all, the experiment cost not only 100+ lives, but extremely expensive ingredients and a damn Daedra Prince personally 'Cursed'/'Blessed' the liquid.

But, he was wrong.

Slowly, strange Reddish pulses could be seen inside the filled blackish liquid.

it was if 'Something' was being created.

'Something' ungodly.

'Something' that shouldn't exist.

Applying 'Eagle Eyes' on himself, the Ayleid started to see something.

Something was being created from the twin's incomparable determination to be 'inseparable'.

No Matter What.

No Matter Who.

No Matter When.

No Matter Where.

And No Matter How.

Along with 98 different souls and different ingredients, the determination to be 'inseparable' deformed itself into something.

A Fetus.

A Fetus was pulsating the reddish waves of 'energy' inside the blackish liquid.

'... Energy? No... This is...' The Ayleid thought stunned as he felt something he long forgot about.

Killing Intent.

Pure Killing Intent.

The Killing Intent was so Pure yet so Savage that it pulsated without a target, ignorant of everything.

Suddenly, the blackish slimy liquid started to decrease.

"... Hm?" The Ayleid said confused.

After all, the liquid shouldn't be decreasing so fast.

Glaring at the Fetus again, he saw it.

"... This is!?" He shouted speechless seeing it.

The Fetus was absorbing it.

Not only absorbing, but he was also evolving with it.

The Ayleid stared speechless as the situation progressed.

The Fetus started to grow more and more rapidly.

It was as if the World wanted to show how 'Life' would be thousands of times faster.

From a fetus to a baby.

And finally, from a baby to a small child.

She was around 4 years old.

With beautiful pure black hair and extremely beautiful pure black eyes, the small child started to look around in pure confusion.

Just like being born, she knew nothing.

As she slowly turned around, she saw the Ayleid.

As the Ayleid glared at the small child's eyes, he felt something.

Hundreds upon hundreds of eyes.

It was as if 100+ different people were staring at him. At his soul.

As the small child stared, she suddenly collapsed, exhausted.

Finally, the Ayleid woke up from the 'Illusion'.

Shooking his head, he sighed.

"... Your Majesty?" A 'Researcher' asked hesitantly.

":.. What is it." The Ayleid said impatiently.

"... What name should we name her?" The 'Researcher' asked respectfully.

Sighing again, the Ayleid took out the Twins' documents from a nearby desk.

Reading their names, Iphi and Ophelia, the Ayleid said, "... Iphislia... Her name shall be Iphislia."
