An odd choice of titles

"Origin story" implies fiction, legend or myth.

Dictionary dot com: (noun) a backstory, or established background narrative, that informs the identity and motivations of heroes and villains in a comic book or similar fictional work.

Wikipedia concurs: "In fiction, an origin story is an account or backstory revealing how a character or group of people become a protagonist or antagonist."
