To evaluate the events in the excerpt "Engaged to a Nun," the most useful piece of context would be:
understanding any official or unwritten rules of betrothal in this culture.
This knowledge would provide insight into the norms and expectations regarding engagements, especially in a situation involving a nun, which may carry specific cultural or religious connotations that affect the nature of the engagement.
