Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Hayter’s fatal absorption into the Xeraphin (cand_evt_scene_a87cf516ac16dad5_1) causes the remnants of the Sanctum to become a danger zone that the Doctor and companions must escape. In Episode 26, Scobie reports the distressing sight of disintegrated passengers (cand_evt_scene_49803bfe532c0f80_2), directly tied to the Xeraphin’s catastrophic effects witnessed earlier."
