I am a follower of Shody Cast's Elder Scrolls Lore series. The last episode they had was about Aylieds. I am sure that they mentioned that those cunning Aylids, tried to harness both the powers of Autherius and the Void. They worshiped elven gods and deadric princes. Their civilization might not have been as sophisticated as Dwemer, but it was still far superior to most other civilization. The first Empire of men was build on what Aylieds left, don't forget that they also build White Gold Tower, that was actually meant to intake the energy from Autherius, as it was giving away the energy from Nirn. Would someone 'wild' be able to achieve such thing? Besides, they became "wild elves" after they were defeated by men. Those who remained, retreated into the wielderness, away from everyone else. That is why they called them wild elves ever since, after men took over, they were not the same advence elves as they once were, since they didn't had a chance to live in the cities they have built anymore. Even those Aylieds that were included into society of men for a while, later became exciled as well. It would seem that their fate was similar to Falmer, except that they do not harbor hatred to everyone else like Falmer, since they were not blinded and betrayed by those they though allies.
