The Pale Archive is the Codex's table of contents.
It is the index of every page the document has agreed to show you.
 
There are pages it has not agreed to show you.
They exist. They are read. They are simply not listed here.
 
What you are looking at is not a list of what you have not yet read.

Every entry on this page knows you have arrived.
The last entry on this page is yours.
