Over hundreds of years, The Scroll, Inc. has gathered an enormous library of Scrollidian literature which it has made available to the general populous. Classifying these wonderful works of literary art into three categories, we have: The Scroll, The Scroll Chronicles, and The Tales from The Scroll. While The Scroll and The Scroll Chronicles are fully accepted as history, there has always been much debate over which of The Scroll Tales should be considered to be factual or to be a works of fiction.

The Council of Nice-ta-see-ya was held in 2006 AD I and AD II by the head council of The Scroll, Inc. to make a decision about which of The Scroll Tales should be included in (what has been entitled) The Canonical Works. All Scrollidian Works to be included in The Canon had to meet a few requirements. First, each work had to have been directly about one of the Three Heroes. Secondly, it had to be proven that each work was penned by an official member of The SCRIBES Guild or any of its ancient equivalents (The Three Heroes are all considered to be honorary members of The SCRIBES Guild).  Lastly, each work’s veracity was scrutinized in intense detail to ensure its historical accuracy.

Those Tales that were excluded from The Canonical Works are known as either The Non-canonical Works, or, as many say, The Apocryphal Works. These texts are considered supplemental to The Canon and crucial to better comprehension. While they are not completely historically accurate, they do contain high quantities of factual content that is entangled in an inescapable web of embellishment and mythology. However, to esteem these works as inferior would be as foolish as deciding to wean yourself off of oxygen by going an entire day only breathing water. The Scroll Tales belonging to The Canonical Works are the following:

1. The Bane of Brian
2. ‘e li’l ol’ manuscript
3. Democracy to Destruction
4. The Birth of Mayonnaise
