[[User:Rene|Rene]] points out a doubt in The Creator's own mind. Why not: the Patrician was a minor failure to storyboard every detail dozens of books into the future?
I suspect most of us separate the first two books from the rest of the canon as a formative period when an astonishing amount of ''scenario'' was established, but some elements were vetoed by [[Narrativia]] and had to be improved.

There was the early sci-fi and then The Colour of Magic and The Light Fantastic and then there was a realised Discworld. --Old Dickens (talk) 02:34, 27 April 2014 (UTC)
