Ivy/The Archive and digital information

Or darknet forums where people exchange information about how they intentionally infect other people with AIDS? And a lot more.

For all the wonderful enlightenment and friendships the net has brought people, there is also a very dark underbelly that has trapped the unwitting and been a boon for the scum of this world...

I mean, when the current Archive dies, it's "mantle" (for lack of a better term) goes somewhere . If there's no ready recepticle, does it die out?
Does it pick a new recepticle?

There's no WOJ I'm aware of to settle that. Personally, I suspect it jumps to the next nearest cousin in the founding Archive's bloodline, but that's just a guess.

Well either that or Ivy is immortal [ in the sense "She won't die in this series." - Jim isn't really George R. R. Martin who keeps saying, that if his fans won't stop asking about when the next book is coming out, he'll kill another Stark ].
And killing Ivy would inevitably introduce a possibly adult character, who already has had childhood and teen years. Ivy's tragedy is a lot more interesting than most other types of character would bring, so killing her off is of little literary value.

I think that the internet could be what starts the disaster of the three book trilogy.....remember when something gets on the internet it is impossible to get rid of. imagine one of the books about worship of an elder good were put on the internet. according to how the oblivion war works the more people who know about the elder god the more powerful it is and the easier time it has showing up on are plane of existence. now imagine IVY trying to fight an elder god that has been connected to an internet meme.

LOL that would turn Anonymous into the true Final Boss of the Internet >.>
