Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Cromwell dismisses Gregory's desire to join the fight in the north, treating him as a child; later, Gregory hesitates to approach his father and Cromwell deflects his trust, continuing the pattern of excluding Gregory from serious matters."
