my theory thread from twitter:
#the “nova bishop”/new bishop’s name has to come from a track 1 song on an album
wraith steppe
summary:
idk if i’m cooking or clowning or if someone maybe already thought of this but it dawned on me and felt like it could be worth sharing
also shoutout to the discord lore school because i wouldnt even know about the code corresponding to the bishop towers without it

doesnt nova just mean new?
wraith steppe
it does! that’s why i included that it’s possible the name of the “nova bishop” is clancy and the track 1 in question could be overcompensate
the main point of my theory is that i believe whatever the new bishop’s name is has to be found in a track 1 song to take keons’ place :)
regal sparrow
i think the new bishop name is city walls
restive hollow
It would make a lot of sense to be Clancy tbh
wraith steppe
i definitely think it’s a verrrry strong possibility
and still fits into the track 1 concept
heady goblet
i feel like nico and clancy are going to swap positions of power, with clancy/nova bishop taking over while part of him, dark clancy, still tries to torment him. but now he is the one in control

What if “Dark Clancy” is a Title only and not his character. Like in lord of the rings, Gandalf was originally “Gandalf the Grey” and became “Gandalf The White”… Hear me out.. Gandalf became the White Wizard after he was resurrected by the Valar following his battle with the Balrog, taking on Saruman's former role as the leader of the Istari (wizards) in Middle-earth, and being granted increased power and authority to oppose Sauron. His transformation symbolized his promotion to head of the Order of Wizards, replacing the corrupted Saruman, and allowed him to fulfill his mission more fully with the blessing of the Valar.
