Tsar Paul is mentioned in peasant rumors concerning an oath made to him in 1797. The reference connects him to the long shadow of imperial authority and popular memory, but he is not given an active role or personal arc in the narrative. He remains a historical name invoked by people trying to make sense of power and obligation.
