21:5
“Darya relit them. “Light is not a crown. Raise it only high enough to help another see.””
The Book of Diesel · Gospel Threshold Edition v4.5
What is history and what is fiction?
Open reconstructionThe chapter is literary theology rather than recoverable event history.
Historical anchor
Zoroastrian ethical language and reverence for Ahura Mazda inspire the scene; “children of the Light” is deliberate literary foreshadowing rather than an Avestan quotation.
Fiction boundary
The postwar village and dialogue are invented.
