The Archive
The Archive is the great library of The Crossing, standing on one of the radial avenues near Arrival Park. One of the few living places aboard. Gippie tends it. Because Chara Social is where the OC universe and the IRL layer cross, The Archive holds knowledge from both layers, and holds it completely: it is the gathering of all knowledge, like an internet spanning the two layers. Its name means exactly that. How visitors experience or navigate its holdings remains unresolved.
