If Ivy dies.....

<< < (6/9) > >>

Mira:


   The point is the Senior Council wants to keep a degree if control.. That kind of knowledge is power..  That is why they want Bob destroyed, who ever holds his skull is in control and he can be used for evil as we saw with Kemmler or good as we've seen with Harry and now Butters.

Quantus:
Pretty sure the Archive predates the crap out of The Council and/or the original Merlin. Time Travel notwithstanding I dont see how he could have been involved, or why he'd need to be.

pcpoet:
 Bob advising harry to buy off Mab with a baby and Molly's responsibilities as the winter queen has me thinking. is it common in fae to offer up ones children to serve protecting reality when they are in trouble with the winter court.

Cold case suggests so. They pay a tithe in children, even if they're not happy with the court.

Avernite:
I do wonder if we're confusing things by bringing in Choice vis-a-vis the Archive.

So far as I imagine it, Choice for Mortal only specifically pertains to things to do with good/evil and the Soul. The Archive gives power, but it may not have any effect on the Soul of the bearer (hence why Ivy could be turned by the Denarians, but Chose not to for long enough to get rescued).

So the Archive, like a loaded gun, can be handed to a human without them really knowing or caring since the Mortal still gets to Choose how to live - but if you hand a loaded gun to someone in a combat zone, you are promoting them to target anyway so the human will probably cling to the weapon to scare off any would-be attackers.

(This being specifically unlike Molly, since Ladyhood turns one towards the Fae, which dissolves/disperses/removes/? the Soul of the human involved over time).
