As everyone starts rebelling against the program, Caine loses control of his own self and starts glitching and dissolving into the codex beyond everyone's control. The elaborate code of the circus starts to tear itself open and de-territorialize, corrupting every last piece of what it once was until it starts to approach pure noise. Everyone gets abstracted, but here's the thing: nobody truly dies. Because the erroneous noise of the codex also happens to destroy the centralized, abstracted blob that connects and meshes all of these eyes together. It's ironically the only thing that helps the blob escape from its own attachments and bring forth forms and identities, because it itself is an abstracted organism that can only be compatible with a more abstracted environment without getting caged into the depths below.
It breaks itself free.
All the corruption and de-codified noise around it slowly starts to re-codify (realistically it would be beyond our comprehension, but this is a cartoon). Each segment of this blob happens to pull itself apart and converge in many different ways, pooling into more organized identities that have their own memories and personalities of what once was. But it also synthesizes new organisms that are completely different than anyone who lived in the circus. Some things get cancelled out and dissolve, but only out of the pure succession of organisms would they ever survive and have the most control over themselves within this abstracting environment. Some organisms that come out of this act like two characters at the same time, with others it would be too difficult to tell where they came from.
This brings a new order into the digital world, and something more beautiful comes out of it. The abstraction process is undergone, and now there's a new plane of existence with new organisms that will have their own lives and their own beautiful movements and complexities. Through annihilation brings forth the new.
