Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Dave's disappearance in beat_6049c04afdc3ad53 establishes the first confirmed victim of the sinister force, directly causing Stuart's later abduction (beat_eb659aed891a9e36) to feel like an inevitable escalation rather than an isolated event."
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.
