vs

unfold to tell the story

These historical accountings will offer insight into a field that has had little written about it in the past. So if you’re a diver, or non-diver, you will enjoy reading the stories as they unfold to tell the story of this teams dedicated members.

interwoven

another possibility.

"Parallel story structures can have interwoven strands with completely different characters acting out stories which do not have any common plot elements, or strands with characters in common which take place at different periods of time or combinations of these and other possible strands. "

"By the time it was over, the North Fork had become more than a winding ribbon of water. It was a living tapestry, in which man and nature, space and time, were interwoven."

"Through a series of complex interwoven events he hardly understands, he comes to realise his own insignificance only to find a new ground to build a new significance upon."
