Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Royce's reluctance to comply with coercive tactics seen in Episode 19 (debating Romana's torture, showing hesitation) carries directly into Episode 20 where he shows discomfort during the Tharil revival procedure. His moral hesitation becomes a consistent character trait."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Royce's hesitation during the voltage torture debate (91bfa74a...) foreshadows his physical withdrawal during the Tharil revival (66f34391...). This establishes a character arc where Royce is conflicted about brutal authority but ultimately complies.
