Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Steven's line 'the Lion of Troy' in Episode 7 is echoed by Troilus' invocation of Hector's death in Episode 9, both referencing the legacy of royal brothers in Troy."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The phrase 'Lion of Troy' (applied to Paris by Steven) and Troilus' references to Hector ('the wheel has spun full circle') create a thematic callback to the Trojan royal family's pride and its tragic consequences. This reinforces the series' focus on familial duty and honor.
About Callback Connections
