Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The death of the man in the woods (beat_8399a9fef8f0a52f) forces Colby to discover the corpse with Leaky the next morning (beat_94bb78df1928db01), which then prompts Colby to interrupt the breakfast conversation and declare the discovery to Fendelman (beat_ac300a79012150bf), thus driving the plot toward confrontation and cover-up."

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.
