We have very different takeaways from Ghost Story. What was the endpoint of all the Ghosts?

  The point is, Harry was never a ghost, Bob confirms that during his walk about.  We saw and yet we didn't see the end point, for some it was a train trip south..  For the likes of Captain Murphy, they stay in-between, I don't know if you'd call that Purgatory or not, but working for Uriel, some stay as ghosts on earth, and others move on to Final Judgement.  That is where Harry thought he was going when he was sent back.  Or enigmatically, Uriel quotes Buckaroo Banzai, paraphrasing now, "where ever you go, here you are..." 

Ed0517:
I think we have to differentiate between the Denarian consciousness and the vessel.  Example - Lasciel appears to be immortal - but Ascher appears to be dead. When her body presumably died, Lasciel goes back into the coin until she is evoked. The bearers of the coin do not age or sicken, but they can be killed. Say Marcone starts his car, and it sets off 100 pounds of C4. He's puree, dead... but Namshiel was merely sent back to the coin.

Maybe Denarians CAN die.  But I kinda think TWG wants to keep their roster at 30. So probably not.

The Fallen were angels at one time, they are eternally trapped in the coins, but they do not die.. If Marcone got squished and burned up in a car wreck, the coin would merely bounce out of the wreck and wait for some poor smuck to pick it up.

toodeep:
I wouldn't say the denarians will be in the coins for eternity.  After all, they spent a lot of eternity out of them.  They only went in recently.  The whole coin thing may be a blip for them.  WoJ does imply the coin being destroyed would release the fallen, which would be bad.  It sounds almost impossible to do.
