12:2
“Kings arrived carrying decrees. Priests arrived carrying formulas. Merchants arrived carrying accounts. Children arrived carrying only what they had learned to love.”

What is history and what is fiction?
Interpretive reconstructionA documented text or tradition is interpreted through openly fictional scenes.
Historical anchor
The Chinvat Bridge is the Zoroastrian bridge of judgment. Across later texts the righteous experience it as wide while the wicked experience danger and constriction; the soul also encounters its own Daēnā, the embodied form of its religion or conscience.
Fiction boundary
The dreamer and detailed dialogue are modern fiction composed from traditional judgment motifs.
