That happens and the world is in danger either way, there has to be balance.

I believe the Table would break it down into pure energy for Winter to use, and not to make Winter a little more like Summer.

A goddess after my own heart.

Yeah. It was mentioned that the Pythia were Archives using knowledge of the past to predict the future, and there is a certain amount of hereditary power there involved in passing down the Archive. Personally, I think that the other children of previous Archives (I don't think it's ever stated that they only have one child, so it makes sense that there would be offshoots of the main Archive branch) have been seen in the series. Namely, I think that the non-chosen descendants of previous Archives are the ones who have Cassandra's Tears, like Lydia (whose real name was Barbara, if I remember right).

I don't remember the Barbara part, but that seems like a neat possible connection. 

I'd also throw the various sibyls in as Archives.  The weird part about an Athena=Archive angle is the Apollo connection.  If the Delphi oracle was the Archive, where is Apollo coming into play?

Conspiracy Theorist:
Yeah, but now they are all migrating to acting.

If Jim doesn’t have a Greek God, turned Wrestler, turned Actor, cast as a Greek God in a film he will be missing a trick.

Dwayne Johnson played Maui of course so definitely not implausible.
