Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Steven's warning to Nicholas Muss about the assassination plot (Priest of Death) directly leads to Tavannes ordering Steven's immediate elimination (Bell of Doom), as Steven becomes the sole witness to the conspiracy."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This causal link stitches the two episodes together, showing how Steven's earlier actions (warning Muss) create immediate and dire consequences in the next episode (Tavannes' order on Steven's life), escalating the conflict and forcing Steven into hiding.
