Symbols of inspiration and heroism
Siyavash and Rostam, the two main characters in the Persian mythology that Kamran and Darius are fond of reading while young, symbolize inspiration and heroism. The story is full of heroic feats, which inspire Darius to develop a coded language he uses to communicate with Kamran. When Darius is found in the terrorist cave, he looks like Rostam, a hero who helps the police to defeat the black widow.
The Black Widow
The black widow symbolizes how terrorists execute their operations. The black widow is working closely with a notorious terrorist called Haydar Ansari to launch the worst attack ever witnessed inside the stadium. Through the actions and roles of the black widow, the readers see that terrorism is an organized organization with a specific hierarchy, which helps them to know how to plan and execute their terrorist attacks. Mostly, the reader sees that terrorists use suicide bombers to attack their targets.
The Super Bowl
The super bowl symbolizes the innocent people who often become the victims of terrorist attacks. The super bowl event is supposed to occur inside the stadium, where the terrorists are staging an attack to kill all the event participants. The symbol is significant because it signifies that, in most cases, the victims of terrorist attacks are defenseless innocent people who are caught unaware. When the police get intelligence reports of the planned attack, they quickly rise into action and evacuate all the people from the stadium who are about to celebrate the super bowl event.
