Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The vaporization of Neeva by Xoanon's energy beam not only removes a key antagonist but also creates a power vacuum among the Sevateem. This absence contributes to the escalating chaos in the Control Room, where the Doctor is now surrounded by increasingly hostile, possessed warriors, each acting as an extension of Xoanon's will."
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.
