Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Polo's despair and reliance on Tegana (beat_5d4b4107b5c723a2) are directly addressed when Tegana reappears at the oasis (beat_ea8a1a60ce3ccfb4), offering a reason (albeit false) for his delay. The situation directly leads to this beat."

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.
