A funny thought just occurred to me, the Archive has a day to day job outside of just being a neutral mediator, that job is basically sharing knowledge if she can (the premise of the Accelerated RPG being that Marcone commissioned her to write something up) so she can part with knowledge just fine if it doesn't clash with her neutrality agreement.

With the masquerade on track to collapse she's going to be known by more than just the supernatural side of things. Once this happens absolutely every culture that's ever lost stuff to attempted erasure and every historian in general are going to be knocking at her door demanding hundreds or thousands of books of content each.

She'd better have a spell for just pumping info straight into word documents because otherwise she's booked for the next 800 years minimum.

Or she could just go into hiding and fog the memories of the few people who do find her. Even if she does get pinned down by some faction, others will rally to her. Plus the only way we've seen to keep her captive is to isolate her in a semi-conscious state, which would make it difficult to get information from her.

I don't mean kidnappers (though she'd doubtless get a lot of those too) I'm talking about people legitimately paying for her services or begging for information.

vincentric:
She'd probably just politely say no. Unless she had some spell that could transfer large amounts of data at super high speeds, it would be too much of a bother.

Griffyn612:
At the rate things are going, I'm guessing that society might collapse entirely. If anything, she'll be asked by the surviving leaders to help recover what was lost, and she'll churn things out. But she'll probably be locked away, and nobody is going to have access to her.
