I wrote a fair bit of material on Carmanian worship but I do not think it made its way into the final ms. Though, frankly, I do not think it what I wrote would have been detailed enough to satisfy the OP.
However, based on various discussions, I never thought the Carminians as Zorastoriistic. Nor was I particularly enamoured of the thought that they engage in both Light and Dark behavior. I felt that dealing with Dark is to be shunned or essayed only in the most dire or controlled circumstances.
