ffxvi verse literally is :
baskervilles clan are one of the great ancient / fallen houses that studied the blight and learned early that ultima feared this phenomenon. the baskervilles would be the ones who instigated the War of the Magi and herald the return of the blight.
the head of the baskerville aka glen was likely one of the sixteen of ultima's original race, who sought ultima's power.
glen would sustain himself by using multiple incarnations of the "head of the household", similar to how one of the ultima collective took hold of olivier's role / life.
like pandora hearts, alice birth was the result of the experiment between levi and lacie, who wanted to give the core of the abyss a vessel. in this case, following the return of the blight, the infant would be surrendered to the blight in a ritual that required a large amount of aether consumption : aka the war of the magi.
naturally this would result in the death of lacie, and alice being regarded as a daughter of the baskerville.
glen would continue to rival ultima by using the fallen and their creations by creating their own mothercrystal variant.
despite having a connection to the blight, alice was able to consume aether and weaponize it as fuel for the fallen's advancement. this leads her to having a connection with the experimental creatures and omega.
alice is not a dominant, she is not an eikon either. alice is beyond the understanding of humans and closer to the form of ultima's race. her genetic code is twisted due to the blight's core which originated from ultima's homeland.
alice's birth is among the many reasons why ultima sought the destruction of the fallen race.
the baskervilles are destroyed within the calamity.
alice would survived, sealed and isolated within the ruins. she has complete control over the fallen relics due to her ancient knowledge and likely access left behind by the baskervilles.
alice remained sealed for many centuries and only began to reawaken following the return of the blight to the world.
