Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Master's revelation in EP13 that the Valeyard is the Doctor's future self (being between his twelfth and final incarnations) sets up the Valeyard's identity and behavior in EP14—particularly his use of illusions to torment and eliminate the Doctor."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection deepens the character arc of the Valeyard: his identity as the Doctor's dark future self explains his personal vendetta and the intensity of his psychological attacks. The revelation in EP13 is the foundation for his behavior in EP14.
