The Cupid Archives were located in a Cupid Homeworld, on a separate cloud from the ‘Mainland Cloud’ that housed the Cupid Post Office. The building was sometimes known as the Cupid Archive in the singular.
Nature
They included vast amounts of files and documents. Some were reports written directly by Cupids about their journeys, (PROSE: Lord Thymon and the Department of Problem-Solving) some were the work of Bibliophile-962, Herodotus-724 and their assistants, and others yet seemed to spawn from the depths of the Archives with no discernible origin. The Archives were jealously guarded by a Mechanical Sphinx whom even the librarians feared, which had originally been positioned there by the Cupids' own creator to guard the documents against Chronon Fleas. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)
History
A vacant spot in the Archives was long held out for “Cupid Fact File #001”. Eventually, it was decided to assign the number to a File on the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids itself. (PROSE: The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids)
Growing tired of having to deal with the Sphinx on every visit, the Cupids eventually started making digital copies of the contents of the Archives, starting with the most often-used Files such as #94, which concerned the Euclidean Plane. (PROSE: The Euclidean Plane)
At some point prior to meeting him in person, Pythagoras-858 read about the incident over which Mandragora-257 was banished from the Cupid Homeworld “in the archives”, in Incident Report #B045. (PROSE: The Resurrection of the Wellsians)
When trying to suppress Fact File #1225, Claus-025 decried it as the worst “tissue of lies” he had seen “worm its way into our Archives”. (PROSE: Father Christmas)
