We're talking about a prologue, not a foreward/preface. To quote Wikipedia, a prologue is "an opening to a story that establishes the context and gives background details, often some earlier story that ties into the main one, and other miscellaneous information". In my case it's the first (a short story that ties into the rest of the novella and establishes some context and gives some background details).
