How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Cromwell forcefully emphasizes the need for German alliances. However, Wyatt's success undermines the marriage alliance, allowing Norfolk to directly challenge Cromwell's position and highlight his potential downfall. This causal link is strong because the diplomatic triumph directly reverses Cromwell's strategic justifications."

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.
