The narrative assertion
"The Great One's illusion and mind control demonstration on the Doctor (beat_2fe50f6289e57609) leads directly to the spiders' successful invasion on Earth (beat_0a62c8ad7c94a2fb), as the crystal's power is central to the invasion plan."
About Causal Connections
A directly causes B. The first event sets forces in motion that produce the second. These are the load-bearing connections of plot--remove one and the story structure collapses.
