Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The White Guardian's offer of the diamond to Turlough prompts the Black Guardian's immediate temptation: offering Turlough 'the TARDIS, and anything else you desire' in exchange for the Doctor's life. This poses the ultimate moral test and sets up Turlough's defiant act."
About Causal Connections
