The narrative assertion
"The bandits' theft of the pentagon from Adrasta's throne room creates a direct disruption to Adrasta's plans. The Doctor's escape and the bandits' theft force Adrasta to re-evaluate her strategy, leading her to escalate her efforts by sending Romana and K9 to kill the Creature, thus deepening the conflict."
