If you \nwant to view Silk as mythic after just one generation, then perhaps the \nconstruction of these stories and the deliberate literary effects contribute \nto the \"construction of myth\".  The narrator takes a very conservative stance \non myth, claiming that it is very closely tied to reality, and is relevant to \nhumanity.  I don't remember exactly where it is, but the passage might be \nuseful if you could find it.  I'll look if I have time today.\nMarc Aramini"
