Causal strong strength

Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The premature detonation of the Kastria Dome module results in its destruction—and the possible survival of Eldrad. Similarly, the quarry explosion results in Sarah Jane's injury and her grasping of the alien hand. In both cases, destruction releases or preserves something dangerous that later becomes central to the plot."

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.
