god?
• X ('Earth-Maker') was considered the creator god by the people
who lived in this part of Peru before the Inca conquest. The Inca
took him into their pantheon, but considered him a lesser rival of
Viracocha, their creator god.
• The myths that survive of X are sparse and confused: some
accounts, for example, identify him as Manco Cápac's cowardly
brother Ayca, while others say that he, Manco Cápac and Viracocha
were the sole three sons of Inti, the sun god. Another story says
that he made the first man and the first woman, but forgot to give
them food — and when the man died and the woman prayed over
X’s head to his father Inti to make her the mother of all the peoples
of earth, X was furious. One by one, as the children were born, he
tried to kill them — only to be beaten and to be thrown into the sea
by her hero-son Wichama, after which he gave up the struggle and
contented himself by becoming the supreme god of fish.

Leroux's The Phantom of the Opera and features in some

Juliette.

40. 20.)
• To produce the varied backgrounds and other illustrations for Y, X
drew on a much wider variety of pictorial sources, such as
newspaper clippings, than he had done for any of the earlier Z
adventures. He went to particular effort in order to depict the Y as a
historically accurate 17th century warship, studying the plans of
naval vessels from that period which were found in the Naval
Museum in Paris. As his primary influence for the fictional craft, he
chose a ship named Le Brillant which had been constructed in Le
Havre in 1690 by the shipwright Salicon and then decorated by Jean
Bérain the Elder. He also however studied other vessels from the
period, such as the Le Soleil Royal, La Couronne, La Royale and Le
Reale de France, in order to better understand 17th century ship
design. It was from the latter vessel that he gained a basis for his
design for the Y's jollyboat. No ship named the Y had ever been
listed in the annals of the French navy, so X instead took the name.
