I think we can get more of the story by trying to read the info cards. Here is what I and @acoustic root were able to get:

to me it seems like theres two possible paths:

The bishops are redeemed somehow and choose someone to lead to usher in a new era of dema..

or they're lying to the people and making it seem like theyve changed when they havent

Whether the new bishop is TB or Clancy im not sure

#

Also, seems like there might be a reason they hid the bottom of the Nova Bishop card, as it might give away too much

gaunt orbit
#

Maybe this is all part of Nico’s plan.

acoustic root
#

The other two are fully on display, while that one has a chunk missing, gotta be intentional

gaunt orbit
#

He could just be trying to keep the cycle going.

drowsy shell
#

"expiration of prior command" seems to imply the bishops are gone

magic tangle

#

yea i see that, but in the TB character card they talk about vialist views, and they seem like theyre from the perspective of the bishops, so im not sure

gaunt orbit
#

I think Nico’s still alive and well.

#

Based on the other two cards I’m not really sure there’s actually more text below what we see

gaunt orbit
#

It looks cut, I think.

This right here is proof that Clancy is a title and multiple people rather than just Tyler

glass torrent
#

Clancy - circular impact. It’s a cycle. Dark Clancy is Nico. How Clancy ended up from a previous cycle. Now Clancy is showing “character deviation” because he’s breaking out of the cycle.

drowsy shell
#

i disagree, but its up to interpretation

‘Rise of subject follows expiration of prior command’ oh that’s Clancy for sure

Notable duality, I wonder what that could mean

That sounds like Clancy does not want to be a Bishop at all. :/

The worst part of the blurriness is these descriptions won't be added to lore updates for a while, since they can't be verified until we get better pictuers or physical copies

thats what i was able to get from the dark clancy one

I see "Do not Obstruct." Everything before that, I don't see anywhere. Definitely seems like an hallucination.

I think the Dark Clancy designation is "Clancy (Unnamed Variant)"

helllo everyone. after looking at these images for an obscene amount of time I think I see some slightly different words and want yalls opinion. mind you after editing these photos over and over i am convinced that tiny areas have been intentionally blurred so take this with a grain of salt lol:

DARK CLANCY - under DESIGNATION I think it could say [OBSCURED VARIANT]. I was on the same boat as yall for a while about it looking like “tura”, but I think I’ve clowned myself into seeing ‘SCURED’ so that’s my conclusion there;with the mask thing on top idk.. also i couldn’t find any English words with ‘TURA’ or ‘TUR’ that made sense there.

also on a separate note it looks like they transposed the A and N in “DESIGNATION: CLANCY [- VARIANT]” to me lol but anyways

THE NEW BISHOP - i think it’s actually “ASCENSION DOSSIER” at the top. a new bishop would infer a rise into power, or an ascension perhaps.

i think one of the last words that begins with C could be CONTINGENCY or CONSPIRACY

TORCHBEARER - i do agree that the end looks like “DO NOT OBSTRUCT”. it looks like there is an extra letter and destroy wouldn’t fit.

All this Nova Bishop/Dark Clancy stuff with the Nova Bishop being described as someone with an unstable duality makes me think they will not really end the story

#

Like yeah in paper, the story is ended, but they still leave a few things open in case they want to come back to it later or they want to build on it with a new story

rustic drum
#

i wouldn't mind a few mysteries unsolved, because then we can keep theorizing and making our own interpretations, but still have an ending

magic tangle
#

I think it's hinting at Bishop Clancy. I'm suspecting an ending where Tyler accepts that both Blurryface and TB (in a sense) are a part of him. And based on what we know of the City Walls music video, I could imagine where we see all the music videos recontextualized to show how both sides of Tyler actually helped him progress.

#

i saw someone say the see “elevated by N” and i was just like damn that would be BAD

#

i thibk its elevated by the people though

dapper robin
#

I mean tbf I can fully see this current clancy becoming a bishop

arctic yacht
#

jeah the whole ascension dossier stuff and elevated by the people and unstable duality plus it being an boxset next to dark clancy and TB set makes me think its a real option

#

unstable duality is living rent free in my mind currently

#

Especially with this lyric from IOFB and keons tower being coloured again on the bandanas, I'll probs make a thread abt it later 😭

magic tangle
# dapper robin Only OP I think

For full transparency, I used the AI results provided by other Discord users, but I myself have not used AI. When I was aware of another person using AI, I only used the results if I could squint my eyes and confirm that the text could reasonably be what it says.

I also am not sure if these other users used AI or OCR (which is ENTIRELY different).

Sorry @vernal pine for mentioning the subject. I just wanted to be transparent.

arctic yacht
#

what do we think about dema thinking torchbearer is harmless if the letters are correct

#

also if nova bishop is clancy why does clancy have a seperate file

drowsy shell

thinking about all the fics that will be coming out of this exploring different points of the lore is so good im so excited.

#

So, after this letters, it seems pretty obvious that Clancy is becoming a bishop. The multiple Clancys could mean two things: Either it references a group of people (Clancy is not only Tyler, but a few people. I saw FPE mentioned in this letter, that would fit with that), or it means the multiple Clancys in the cycle (one of them might be Nico?).

Also, has anyone else noticed that in all the snippets of the new Breach songs there is a sound of something burning in the background? This could mean that we'll see the city walls being burnt to the ground.

mellow widget
#

Maybe the duality of dark Clancy refers to him both a bishop (Nova bishop) and an individual outside of that

fair nebula
#

i have tried my hardest but i absolutely cannot see how it says “multiple type” on clancy’s character card. instead, i see parentheses and think it says “multiple (FPE)” to indicate that he has multiple failed perimeter escapes. that makes more sense given the context of the story and everything we know about him

#

OH WAIT i see other people also have talked about that void i’m glad we’re on the same page there. i was just on twitter and saw so many people running with “clancy has multiple types” thing when that doesn’t really make any sense

#

i’m also just going to operate under the assumption that all the cards are actually going to say something completely different than what we’re thinking because they love to subvert our expectations

#

@magic tangle im not sure if anyone is still actively trying to read these or not, but I have(what I think) to be some very accurately transcribed revisions of each of the ID cards. AI is clearly a hot topic hence why I'm even asking rather than posting. But I cross referenced everything you guys came up with in this thread with what mine came up with and I think it's pretty dam close. If anyone is still interested I can post em. Just lmk

inland hornet

#

Based on the wording of the TB ID card, granted it's accurate ofc, I have a theory that TB is some sort of employee(?), or maybe asset rather, to DEMA that's designed to be a constant source of guidance to clancy, but one that only guides in a way that perpetuates the cycle. Not necessarily a villain to clancy, but also not a threat or villain towards DEMA. Idk. It's a lot to take in if true. Seeing things like "civic linchpin", "no deviation from objective", "do not obstruct" are very interesting. Maybe his overarching role is to help guide clancy into a conquering role within DEMA hence then becoming the Nova Bishop, and then the cycle repeats.

#

And maybe the breach is finding that out?

arctic yacht
#

document type: personnel stability index hmmm

languid delta
#

Y'all, what if the info cards are a fourth wall break? On Clancy's, the document type is listed as "character deviation," and in the file notes on Torchbearer's, it says "displays no signs of deviation from objective." Perhaps Tyler feels like he's losing control of the narrative he created

both dark clancy and nova bishops registry files start with ITL-8 while TB’s is completely different

So what do we think of these info cards ?? Considering (I think) the story isn’t yet fully over , with Breach DR, the tour coming up, Drag Path… what’s to come ? I could see a different ending with two different Clancys involved, the Nova Bishop, the dark Clancy (even the regular Clancy ?) I don’t know
