Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Ace’s fight with the brass-tipped cane in the cellar directly leads to her accidental striking of the golden wall screen, releasing hissing gas and causing the insects to recoil, triggering the mansion-wide alarm and exposing Josiah’s experiments."

About Causal Connections

A directly causes B. The first event sets forces in motion that produce the second. These are the load-bearing connections of plot--remove one and the story structure collapses.
