The Shard Bearer theory

The Shard Bearer theory, initially called the Shard Bearer hypothesis, was originally a hypothesis proposed by Tony Stark and Dr. Bruce Banner on March 22, 2015. The hypothesis regarded the 1974 Tesseract Shatter and asked whether or not there were other beings in the Omniverse that possessed a shard of the Tesseract, referred to as Shard Bearers. Stark is one such Shard Bearer. After it was proven true on March 24, 2015, it became known as the Shard Bearer theory.
Stark and Banner based the hypothesis on both previous knowledge of the Shatter and logical conclusions. Stark noted that, since the Tesseract shattered into many shards and one such shard travelled into his own mind, the same must be true for the other shards; other shards must have travelled into different parts of the Omniverse and, therefore, into different beings and/or objects. Because the Tesseract needed to be put together again, Stark concluded that the only way to reunite the Tesseract is to gather all the Shard Bearers and have them reassemble the Tesseract themselves. Stark included himself in this list of Shard Bearers. However, Stark was unable to discern which beings contained different shards due to a lack of information.
On March 24, 2015, the All told Stark that there indeed were other Shard Bearers in the Omniverse. He told Stark that Wiley, Girioteni Katieku, Sonic, Freddy the Ferret, Foxy the Pirate Fox, Zed, and Lyra Monlovar were the only Shard Bearers within the Guys, and that there are 47 Shard Bearers overall. Stark, Wiley, Girioteni, Sonic, Freddy, Foxy, Zed, and Lyra were 8 of them. This proved the Shard Bearer hypothesis to be correct. Stark wanted to know who the other 39 Shard Bearers were, and the All said, "Since the Tesseract's shatter in 1974, we the Council have sent scouts to locate the remaining Shard Bearers. As of now, we have located 12 more Bearers. 7 of them are your friends."
On August 4, 2015, Stark and Jack began to add a conjecture to this theory. This conjecture proposes that a shard could have a potential link to more than one person. This conjecture has yet to be tested and verified.
