How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Maxil and the Castellan's discovery that the termination circuit was altered (beat_ee553ffbb62a4803) directly leads to the Castellan acknowledging the Doctor's survival (beat_5a6d4916975f4bbb), escalating the immediate threat to the Doctor."
