Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection establishes the direct consequence of the Keeper's warning, setting in motion the immediate conflict Adric and the Doctor face upon arrival on Traken. The 'all-pervading evil' manifests immediately through Kassia's corrupted behavior, demonstrating the escalation of the threat first identified by the Keeper.
