What I’m about to say it’s likely a huge stretch, but I’ll try nonetheless. I worked on an image edited previously by @roz. So, I was seeing a pattern of letters in the weird wide spaces within the “TWENTY ONE PILOTS” heading, and, after tracing them, the words EOIKAM or EDICAM appeared (or, at least, that’s what I saw).
EOIKAM is similar to the Greek verb ἔοικα (EOIKA), which means “to seem,” “to appear,” “to resemble.” It can hint at a false perception of reality, or the tension between what is and what appears to be.
EDICAM is the first-person singular present subjunctive of edico from the Latin verb edicĕre, meaning “to proclaim, to announce, or to declare”.
Its literal sense evokes authority, the power to announce, to set rules, to make a statement visible and public.
These possible words were hidden in the page 10 of the Breach digital remains booklet. On the same page, the song title RAWFEAR is explicitly quoted (it’s repeated two times, with different fonts overlapped; also, 5x2=10; RAWFEAR quoted 5 times overall, 2 as in this duplicate font on page 10). What’s weird is that the same song title is quoted 5 times in the booklet.
Always on page 10, there’s a small lankh symbol (noticed by @n3on_grav3ston3). Here’s a possible connection between these elements:
For the Pythagoreans, 5 had a deep significance: it symbolized the union of male (3) and female (2) principles and was called the “Marriage” or “absence of dispute,” reflecting the harmony created by combining opposites.
Similarly, the ankh, the ancient Egyptian “key of life,” symbolizes eternal life, immortality, and divine vitality. It also represents a mystical union of male and female principles, linking the creative and sustaining forces of life.
So, the number 5, the epsilon, and the ankh converge on the same idea: the union of male and female principles and the balance of opposites.

I think we should take everything seriously considering the “they should do another one but harder” comment at the end of the loc puzzle video

We’re actually looking over Digital Remains somewhere else, but I can’t send the link for the forum.

If you want to help there, just tell me. :)
