Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Marshal's sealing of mine exits and triggering of explosives (beat_f996f013aaca68cb) leads to the guard reporting that the mine entrance is 'swarming with mutants' (beat_dd05d9ab0e6c411d), showing the Marshal's overconfidence in his plan leading to unintended consequences."
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.
