Welcome to Trench.

In the lowest reaches of a barren world of grey and neon, there is a city called Dema, surrounded by walls and controlled by nine Bishops. There, children and adults of all ages are taught to perform with efficiency and obedience. There is no way out - but why would they want to leave? They have shelter, food, clothes, and most importantly, consistency. 

Two young men dream of something outside of Dema. They are forced to keep quiet about their dreams and dim the light in their eyes, for if they are caught with thoughts like these, they will surely be published. It would be easier to stay and conform, like everyone else. But still, myths of a land outside of Dema and a mysterious band called the Banditos occupy their minds until they know they must escape.

---

A fairly literal and entirely fictional interpretation of the music videos and some lyrics from Twenty Øne Piløts' new album Trench, as well as Clancy's journal.

Trigger warnings: depression, suicide, self-harm, etc. 
Stay safe.

REBEL CLOTHES ✓ by neonpython

There's a world where no one is unhappy. Life is good, life is silence. Life is inside the walls of Dema. At least, that's what the Bishops say. That's what Tyler believes, living life in red and black, until a boy with bright yellow hair starts to appear in his dreams. « joshler » #6 in joshler tag 15 Nov, 2018

The Creator by beanfic

It's the year 2050, and the country that was once known as America has closed off all of its borders and has now been named Dema. The states as vanished, but now Dema is split into nine different sanctions, or provinces, each led by its own Bishop. The leader of Dema, Nicolas Bourbaki, or Nico as everyone calls him, runs Dema with the help of the bishops. His army, the niner's are the police force that enforces the strict rules that Nico has placed in the country. It was a harsh transition, but ever since Dema has been running smoothly. Nico created a band on popular culture. This includes music, art, movies, media, and much more. He created job assignments, so there was a regulation and who does what job, so the country can be successful. If you got chosen to be a creator, you were the one who gets to create the art or media, that can be listened to by the listeners. The listeners are what once were called celebrities, the top 1%. It's quiet in Dema without music and art, but this allows for focus on the jobs and the raises the success rate of Dema. But what happens when a banned creator starts his own secret rebellious group?

The Lost Souls by sally_foster_

When she discovers her father is the leader of the Banditos, it's only a matter of time before the city crumbles; she doesn't realize that as the city loses strength, so does the Bishops.

Only Skeletons Remain by _sahl0_f0lina_

"There will be Three, kin of your kin, who hold the power to reshape the world and defy the shadows." Only Skeletons Remain follows the intertwined stories of three generations bound by the oppressive grip of DEMA, a city of neon lights and despair. Miguel, a Bandito rebel and former Lorekeeper, struggles to free his family from the tyrannical rule of the DEMA High Council. After escaping and discovering his father's grave in the Neon Graveyard, he becomes embroiled in a war for survival, ultimately forced to lead the Banditos after the death of their leader. Haunted by his transformation into a bishop, Miguel's journey is one of sacrifice, rebellion, and self-redemption as he battles to dismantle DEMA's control over their world. Years later, Javier took on the role of Lorekeeper, tasked with preserving the history of those lost to DEMA's cruelty. His path leads him into the secrets of the council and the power of forbidden knowledge, putting him at odds with the rulers of the city. His quiet defiance and cunning stewardship of the Lorekeeper's archives laid the foundation for the Banditos' future uprising. Years later, Harper, Javier's daughter, embarks on her own journey to break free from DEMA's brainwashing, leading her siblings and allies in a fight for freedom. Corrupted and manipulated by the High Council, she must face the darkness within and around her as she unravels the mysteries of her family's past and takes up the torch to destroy DEMA once and for all. DISCLAIMER: this is purely fictional, and I made this just for fun! All of it is made up! :) Rights to the DEMA universe belong to Twenty One Pilots.

Rising Ashes by AlexisHartman4

Aimee had always been a citizen of Dema, trapped beneath the heavy veil of Vialism like everyone else. Though she never truly believed in the religion that dictated every aspect of their lives, defiance wasn't an option. In Dema, you either followed the rules or faced the consequences. So, like the rest, she kept her head down and went along with it-until everything changed. Whispers of rebellion stirred through the streets when Clancy, the legendary figure who had escaped Dema's grip time and again, began organizing an uprising. For the first time, Aimee saw a chance to fight back, to break free from the chains of Vialism and the Bishops' oppressive rule.

Free & Flightless (Trench) by SnazzyDun

Tyler and Josh are thrown into the depths of hardships and impossible feats when they discover the dark secrets of DEMA, eerie letters, the sacrifices that must be made, and the "blood-thirsty lions" everybody has been whispering about for so long. *completed 12-26-18*

-The Banditos- by WeAreAllTERRIFIED

Twenty years after Josh, Tyler and the Banditos escaped the confines of DEMA, a new wave of rebels has arisen, desperate for freedom.
