"In the beer-house and the tavern, may there be ever pleasure and plenty for you. You will live like the sons of the wise." She proclaimed onto the creature, oh Holy Inanna decreed, and so it's fate did come true.
Inanna's descent into the underworld
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Thaumiel
Special Containment Procedures: [Paragraphs explaining the procedures]
Description: SCP-XXXX is three separate, but connected anomalies, SCP-XXXX-A, SCP-XXXX-B, and SCP-XXXX-C.
SCP-XXXX-A:
SCP-XXXX-A is the island of Ibiza, Spain. It is located 150 km from SCP-8710's domain and hosts an officially recognized population of 159,180 people and a true population of 253,672, 94,492 of whom are Homo aquarius refugees originating from political purges within SCP-4700 from 1889-2017.
SCP-XXXX-A is a historic anomalous location, having served as the Eastern trading hub for the Finnfolk Empire in the Mediterranean from 3000 until 1164 BCE when its settlements were abandoned for reasons that remain unclear.1 Ibiza is thus, rich in archaeological remains and Finnfolk artifacts that have been continuously unearthed as the island's population has grown.
In addition to it's historically anomalous nature, SCP-XXXX-A has been completely enveloped in a
large-scale, spatial-temporal displacement event and is subject to a significant disruption of the noosphere. This has caused the island and ~10 km of ocean around it to be geographically untethered from local reality, where it is now believed to be within a relatively accessible pocket dimension. It is unknown when this pocket dimension first came into existence, but is suspected to have occurred when SCP-XXXX-B and -C arrived; however based on historical roman and carthaginian records, the ontokinetic instability and noospheric disruptions already existed in some smaller form prior to SCP-XXXX-B and -C's arrival, possibly due to a large nexus related to SCP-███.
Like what has been observed in SCP-8710's domain and other similar anomalies in Orkney and Thera, residents of SCP-XXXX-A exhibit strong beliefs in the anomalous, immunity or resistance to amnestics, and predisposition to anomalous or ritualistic practices pertaining to hedonistic socio-cultural tendencies. Since approximately 1950, long term residence within SCP-XXXX-A alters an individual's perception of day-night cycles and circadian rhythm, though this appears to be entirely subjective from individual to individual.
SCP-XXXX-A is an established freeport and nexus for anomalous individuals as set in stone by the Foundation-Valencia divine non-interference and mutual assistance pact of 2010 (FOV-DINIMAP).
Though initially believed to be limited to Ibiza, SCP-XXXX-A's effects are now believed to be steadily expanding to the rest of the Balearic Islands. SCP-XXXX-B and -C believe this to be a natural consequence of the restoration of their divine domains, and have assured the Foundation that it will not spread further.
SCP-XXXX-B & C:
SCP-XXXX-B and SCP-XXXX-C are the designations assigned to two humanoid anomalies known as Abigail Im-Immaru and Aleah Im-Immaru, formerly known as E-8710-02 and -03. They are type black entities classified along the Finnfolk's divinity scale as a Beasts of Nature based on akiva radiation output, ontokinetic potential and stable co-maintenance of the pocket dimension enveloping SCP-XXXX-A. Both Abigail and Aleah, with significant historical, ontokinetic and personal supporting evidence2, to be the ancient Sumerian and Phoenician divinities of Inanna/Astarte and Ishtar respectively.
Abigail and Aleah are near identical twins, 1.68 m tall with notable features including prominent noses, amber eyes, dark brown hair, and dark skin. Ishtar is notably younger in appearance when compared to Inanna, suggesting a difference in age that both deny. With the exception of the face, all portions of their bodies are covered with luminescent tattoos that change shape, color, and intensity based on mood and environment.
Abigail and Aleah are profoundly capable ontokinetic manipulators, defaulting to warping light and cosmology to achieve desired effects, with notable preference by the latter to work with what she describes as "sunfire". Close observation has revealed an innate ability to enhance or heighten pleasure receptors in a given target through direct touch that appears to exist independent of their ontokinetic capacities. Both individuals claim that they draw "power" from the intimacy of such interactions.
Ms. Im-Immaru has refused to disclose her exact geographic origin, but has suggested multiple times that her and SCP-XXXX-C remained close to their place of birth until they left for Ibiza.
Both Inanna and Ishtar are cooperative and exhibits willingness to work with Foundation perssonel in most, noninvasive inquires into their nature and history. They appear, primarily, interested in attending to a club that own on SCP-XXXX-A named "The Evening Star".
Both parties have refused to disclose their age, but consensual carbon-dating attempts have suggested they are, at minimum, 35,000 years old and may be older. When questioned on this, Aleah provided no response, but Abigail told researchers quote "Look at you, flattering me. 35,000 years old, I must look good for my age."
