The Infancy Gospel of Grandfather Paradox was an apocryphal book written by Saint Richmal. It included a dialogue that condemned the anchoring of the web and the resultant linearity as unnatural; celebrated the adventurousness of the "lesser species"; and contemplated the idea of starting a new war, since the Great Houses were too boring to fight. (PROSE: Pre-narrative Briefings)
