Okay So [ERROR] Theory Time.

okay so [ERROR] theory time.

[ERROR] was the archivist for the magnus institute, Manchester. the magnus institute was looking for a place to perform their ritual in 1998, and was raided by starkwall in 1999. this seems to support the idea that the OIAR takes a gertrude-esque role in preventing rituals.

my theory is that we're dealing with a lvl 10 archivist, way farther along than jon ever got in the magnus archives. potentially the ritual was partially successful and granted the archivist extra powers? when starkwall attacked in 1999 this archivist hid them,, herself?(I'm hoping it is a her) away in some sort of bunker. remember how jon can choose to know things, I'm guessing this archivist can also do that, maybe using that ability to feed.

anyways episode 10 rolls around and the archivist is unleashed. episode 11 alice wants to be walked home because she says she feels like she's being WATCHED. I'm guessing the archivist has a vendetta against the OIAR for ruining the ritual in 1999.

the archivist tries to attack gwen, and goes so far as to shoo ink5oul away to have gwen to herself. the archivist also attacks gwen the first night she is alone and far from the OIAR. I am thinking the OIAR has some kind of protection, like some externals, that would stop the archivist from attacking. I am hoping we get to see some monster on monster battles.
