'X' is a computer Easter egg found in 'Y' and 'Z'. There is no real book entitled 'X'. However, apparent quotations hidden in 'Y' and 'Z' give this impression by revealing passages in the style of apocalyptic literature, such as the Book of Revelation in the Bible. There are five official verses of 'X' which have been included in shipping releases, although various unofficial verses can be found on the World Wide Web. All five official verses have scriptural chapter and verse references, although these are actually references to important dates in the history of 'Y' and 'Z'. The five verses all refer to the activities of a fearsome-sounding "beast". In its early days, 'Y' had a green fire-breathing dragon-like lizard mascot, known as 'Z'. From this, it can be conjectured that the "beast" referred to in 'X' is a type of fire-breathing lizard, which can be viewed as a metaphor for, or personification of 'Y'.
