The Hadal Blacksite and NOST DIVISIONS

The Hadal Blacksite started construction in 1962, with the first zone in the facility finished being The Ridge in 1963. The Ridge was used as a temporary hub during construction of the rest of the Blacksite, holding prison workers, guards and building materials. In 1967 while making room for the Blacksite, Thor's Corpse was found, along with it Z-2. Z-2 was installed inside of The Ridge, being used to power the Hadal Blacksite and excess energy being sold to Europe.

The Hadal Blacksite finished initial construction in 1974, and became the center for the discovery and containment of many anomalies including The Angler, Mask Of Sadness and Valcula Void Mass as well as dangerous experiments such as the B.U.P.W.M Project, giving Deep Sea Bunnies lungs, and in 2015 a procedure to give humans gills in order to be able to breathe under water. Sebastian Solace was brought in from death row as a test subject. He had his DNA mixed in with different sea creatures, which led to him becoming his current form. After revision, the program was deemed a success, however Sebastian was given a Z classification and promoted to MR-P.

In 2025, Sebastian was able to feign the effects of anesthesia while being transported, using this opportunity to kill a high level guardsman and steal his keycard to release as many monsters held in the Blacksite as possible, including giving The p.AI.nter access to countless systems and putting the Mask Of Sadness onto one of researchers. The Hadal Blacksite was put into lockdown, and after the operatives that were sent in to collect Z-2 perished, the Expendable Protocol was initiated to retrieve the crystal. Shortly after the protocol was initiated, an MR-P was sent through The Outskirts to reach Submarine Dock #13 in order to allow submarines carrying EXR-P to surface at the dock.

The EXR-P had to traverse through the ruined Hadal Blacksite, facing all the monsters Sebastian had breached prior, with some eventually being able to obtain Z-2. This plunged the Blacksite into complete darkness while the backup generators started. Once the backup generators were online, the EXR-P was able to board a submarine and leave the Blacksite, becoming pardoned after returning Z-2.

By October 18th, "Operation Heartburn" began, consisting of an extermination force of LR-G ranked Guardsmen being deployed to the Deep Earth Quarry. They were tasked with clearing out a Rotten Coral infestation, and activating the Sköll Pulse Laser Dril, eliminating the Heart of Lazarus instance that had formed beneath the drill. The Guardsmen were successful, and upon return, they were promoted to MR-G ranked Guardsmen.

An unknown time after Z-2 was successfully retrieved, the Hadal Blacksite was restored with all the breached entities re-contained[1] and Sebastian having escaped the Blacksite, while Eyefestation was killed by operatives
