Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"When Rask is unmoved by the Doctor's warning about the bombs, Idas' rallying cry to the Trogs directly follows as a response to the escalating threat, fulfilling the prophecy and driving the Trogs to act against the Minyans."

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.
