Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The Valeyard's technique of reframing a single incident as damning proof (cand_evt_scene_5f63a6d9795c6763_1) parallels Yrcanos' sudden shift from ally to enemy after observing questionable behavior. This creates a thematic throughline where accusations escalate into physical confrontation across the episode boundary.
