The Web Lighter is an artefact of The Web that is used to track Jonathan Sims.
Description[]
A golden Zippo lighter with a spiderweb design.
History[]
The lighter is delivered to The Magnus Institute by Breekon & Hope in MAG 35. John is out of his office when they arrive so Martin Blackwood receives the package in his stead. He places it in John’s desk and tells John about it.
John forgets about the delivery and does not open it until the next week, when Timothy Stoker asks about it in MAG 36.
In MAG 39, Sasha James mentions John having the lighter.
In MAG 91, John has the lighter in his bag when Daisy brings him to the forest to execute him.
In MAG 111, Gerard Keay remarks on the lighter's design, asking if John is a "spider freak".
In MAG 136, Daisy similarly remarks on it and asks where he got it.
In MAG 162, Martin mentions the lighter in passing.
In MAG 197, Annabelle Cane reveals that the lighter is an anchor of The Web’s power that has allowed The Web and its Tape Recorders to track John. She also intends for it to be used to blow up The Archives as part of her plan to move The Entities to a new dimension.
In MAG 199, John steps out of the tunnels to have a smoke, and uses the lighter. Georgie joins him, mentioning she took up smoking again, and asks if she can hang onto the lighter. John absently agrees.
