This is beautiful and I love how the omakes of this quest qualifies as fanfiction of fanfiction of fanfiction.

There's Orders of Magnitude, a fan-prequel to Significant Digits, a fan-sequel to Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality, a fanfic of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
That's a layer deeper even before fic and omake of Orders is considered...

If we're considering canon to be level one then this is level four; Naruto -> MfD -> omake of MfD -> quest based off of omake. There was also: HP -> HPMOR -> Following the Phoenix -> Squiring the Phoenix

Pretty sure it's only two level deep?
u/xamueljones [+1] My arch-enemy is entropy*
Yes, the quest itself is two levels deep, I was referring to the omakes of this quest which are three levels deep. Here's a meta-joke, see if you can figure out the punchline: I'm So Meta Even This Acronym

I thought the original quest is level one since it is a fanfic of canon?

Well, Ninja Trails is based off an omake of MfD, so it should get one extra layer.
