      It’s a fictional story so the only source is the Bible.

      I mean think about it what was the point of the story? Noah accomplished nothing except saving the animals which God could have done without him. Sure the evil was cleansed but what does that have to do with Noah?

      The reason Noah is significant is because he is a direct descendant of Abraham is is essential to legitimizing David as king and establishing divine right. This also maintains the direct line from Abraham to Jesus Christ which again legitimizes his claims and fulfills all the prophecies about him being a king/prince.
