The problem with this image is, if this was taken in 2002 the book is a clear anomaly

You want to do this for the French version of the book. The details are different.

I think maybe they are trying to remember the code currently, in the present day, and we need to help them.
The book and the game on cover (Sable, inspired by the Art of Moebius) are new. But Moebius is not. Its the one thing that can connect now with 2002 in the image since Moebius has been around since the 70s.
Dont know about the cipher wheel. Nothing from waking titan so far has helped us with anything, the arg just has vague illusions to it and NMS to get us nostalgic and invested.
Simplicity is what is being implied here by the top line, also from an artist, just like Moebius… so everything we need is right in front of us I reckon.
That french cipher detector site might be of more use to us.
Has anyone on the discord ran this through it yet?

I think this is Leonardo Da Vinci

If so, there’s a letter missing, the swap isn’t straight and some letters swap onto themselves.
(Incidentally, one big weakness of Enigma was that letters never did that).

I was just released, as well!
Was the cipher already solved? The page says it is “stable.”

welcome back!
Edit: looking at the page, each entity is unique, together they are one

Also, there’s a very famous code associated with Da Vinci, from 2003. 
what is this code?
Leonardo Da Vinci in French is Leonard Da Vinci - so the number of letters is right.
LHWCFKD DH OBCUB
LEONARD DA VINCI
L → L
E → H
O → W
N → C
A → F
R → K
D → D
D → D
E → H
V → O
I → B
N → C
C → N
I → B

If we guess it’s a Vigenere Cipher (French) then we need the key phrase to deode it:
The bottom is the substitution alphabet, using ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ → MIND(J/C)F(J/C)AGEBFRLHCVPQSKYUWOXTZ. 26 unique letters
The top translates LHWCFRD DH OBCUB → LEONARD DE VINCI french name of the author of the quote!

Leonard in French no letter missing
