After the Dark War, Nine learned the truth of the world and its time-loops that were created by the Amaterasu Unit. Sickened, she vowed to stop them, and begun work on the Requiem, having it placed deep within her laboratory. To ensure no one would be able to access the Nox, several locks were put on the entrance to the workshop. Nine was shortly thrown into the Boundary by Yuuki Terumi not long afterwards, and development on Requiem was halted.
Nine would later return to resume her work on Requiem nearly 100 years later when she regained her own independence from Izanami. It was eventually discovered by Celica A.
