Although I think there could be exceptions, like if the story was first person.
Yes, you could certainly have a sentence fragment in dialogue, and first person is akin to dialogue.

Gen 2 includes the Tigris & Euphrates, and other place references regarding Eden. Plus, it's a garden, which makes more sense in a jungle setting than a desert.

If you're going to write based on history or literature, you have to know that history or literature. You can depart from it, but you'll have to explain that departure at some point or you'll lose readers familiar with the originals.
