Narrative Connection

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The legend of the Hashashins is used narratively to foreshadow the dangers of the Cave of Five Hundred Eyes. Susan's observation about the moving eyes is treated as seriously as the Hashashin legend, creating thematic consistency.
