Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Doctor and Romana's materialization in the swamp (beat 34dccd24) directly leads to Romana being grabbed by Swampies and the Doctor calling out—this triggers Fenner's hostile action in beat eda7341e89b504bc, where he shoots the Doctor. Their arrival is the inciting incident for the entire human-refugee conflict."

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.
