Scintilla the Younger

Scintilla's first publication was a gloss on the notorious 'Gnome Chant', demonstrating that this song fragment was a recent creation, not of ancient origin as claimed. For this he was denounced by his father, S. the Elder, who had long considered gnome lyrics his area of special purview. S. the Younger took this as an indication that he should pursue his studies as far away from his parent as possible, and has spent several years at lesser-known institutions such as the Igloomiuliukavik Language Institute and Soapstone Carvery.
