But is it clericalism if it’s a pseudo bishop? Or is it a charismatic, cult-like figure leading them astray? The reality will hit hard when they’re evicted from the monastery!

They may (I have no special insight) believe his position of "Thuc Line makes me a real bishop". And who knows if they understand what exactly his time in the "Palmerian Catholic Church" means. Some may think it's just a "traditionalist" group.

That eviction is likely to take some time. Firstly because there remains a ‘prodigal son’ option for the group to return with some new insight and repentance to the authority of Rome or to take matters to a public legal battle on who actually owns their estate.
