Luz: "If they do, then that's where we have to go."
The Archive House, also known as The Archives, is a giant castle in the shape of a crown that floats above the Titan's broken skull. It was created by the Collector to be a new "Owl House" for both King, himself and all the "friends" he made in the Boiling Isles. It also served as a home for the Collector and King.
Appearance[]
The Archive House is a massive, glowing white castle floating above the Boiling Isles, constructed from part of the Titan's skull. It is circular in shape, with multiple spires which culminate to the front, similar to the appearance of a crown. The entrance is adorned with two purple stars and a golden crescent moon atop.
Interior[]
Interior of the Archive House
The Archive House's interior contains historical paintings of collectors in the wall, and it tells a story about the rise of the collectors. The interior has star shaped lights in the blue and purple toned walls, a shiny floor, and a dream-like architecture inside the castle.
The Collector's room
The Collector appears to have a room inside of the castle as well. As seen inside and down a hallway, there's an entrance to a space-like room with zero gravity, allowing anyone inside to float through it with ease. In the center of the room there is a small scale of the planet Earth with two beds and a bedside table between them. The bed on the left appears to be the Collector's bed, it has a blue comforter, a brown bed frame with moon-like imagery engraved onto the wood at the head and end of it, a white mattress, and a white pillow. The bed on the right however is more sun themed with a golden-and-yellow comforter, a white mattress, a white pillow, and a brown bed frame with imagery resembling suns instead of moons, complementing the left bed. The bed on the right is intended for a friend. The bedside table in between the two beds has a brown color and a simple lamp resting on it.
The entrance door of the Archive House isn’t a normal door, and it is instead a big, slightly transparent, purple and pink, glittering curtain. Through the door is a long hall with a wide yellow staircase at the end, which branches out to the rest of the castle. The staircase starts off as a ordinary wide staircase but it breaks off into two more staircases which meet together at an upper floor. The walls are lined with large pillars and windows to show a view of the outside world below. Along the ceiling is star and crescent moon shaped lights that glow in a yellow hue.
Background[]
The Collector created the Archive House using parts of the Titan's skull to act as their base of operations and storage facility for the witches and demons that had been turned into puppets. For months they lived here with King, keeping Odalia around as their "Mamadalia" to clean up after them.
When Belos made his attempt at possessing the Titan and destroying the Boiling Isles, the Archive House started to descend due to the Collector being affected by Belos' corruption. The Hexsquad secured the puppets inside while the Collector used tethers to keep the Archives in the air. Once Belos was defeated for good, the Collector placed the Archives on the Titan's skull and it remained there long into the epilogue.

Trivia[]
- Since the Archives were created by the Collector, it is unknown why there were portraits of the past collectors inside it, those who the Collector seems to dislike for their past actions.
- Because of the Archives' circular ringed structure with the various turrets looking like prongs, the building looks very similar to that of a crown.
- This is emphasized even further by it floating and eventually falling on top of the Titan's skull, making it look like they are being crowned.
