It is an it isn't. Because G'raha moved backwards in time from the source to the first it can been seen as an N because he is travelling between two different shards. But it can't be an N if we are talking about time travel, because neither vertical line in an N is connected, which therfore means they couldn't come from the same original timeline that was changed by the time travel. Instead what you would end up with is G'raha traveling between alternate timelines (eg: a multiverse) rather than traveling back in time. If you want to get technical, which I should have to begin with, about it, G'raha's actions are more like the letter P but where the semi-circle reconnects halfway down the P there would we a diagonal line going back towards the top of the P representing our new timeline. The stem of the P representing the original 8UC timeline, the semi-circle representing G'raha's time travel and the added diagonal line representing our current timeline.

If you wanted to be even more technical you would need to more semi-circles with arrows on them, both connecting the end of the diagonal line to the base of the P. the first of these semi-circles would have the arrow facing towards the bottom of the P and represent our journey to Elpis with the second semi-circle and arrow pointing towards the top of the diagonal line representing our return from Elpis. You could then double those two line in the same place to represent our journey to and from Pandaemonium.
