Adhyaya 75 — The Fall and Restoration of Revatī Nakṣatra and the Birth of Raivata Manu
ऋषिरुवाच तत्त्वं ब्रवीषि भूपाल ! न भावस्तव दूषितः ।
व्याजहार भवान् एतद् वह्निना नृप चोदितः ॥
ṛṣir uvāca tattvaṃ bravīṣi bhūpāla! na bhāvas tava dūṣitaḥ / vyājahāra bhavān etad vahninā nṛpa coditaḥ
ઋષિએ કહ્યું—હે ભૂમિપાલ, તું સત્ય બોલે છે; તારો આશય નિર્મળ છે. હે રાજન, અગ્નિની પ્રેરણાથી તું આ વચન બોલ્યો છે.

Primarily falls under Vaṃśānucarita / narrative of persons and events (ethical-legendary episode), rather than sarga/pratisarga/manvantara.
