Narrative

"Typical narrative structure is often broken down in this way:

1. Opening: establishes setting and introduces character.
2. Build up: Relationships established. Development of characters and their world.
3. Problem: a dilemma or series of complications. Characters are faced with an obstacle to overcome a mystery to solve, or often more than one.
4. Events: a series of events/action as characters try to overcome obstacle, solve problem, discover truth and so on. Further complications may arise in the process.
5. Resolution: the protagonists are victorious, problems are solved, truth revealed.
Ending: characters reflect on events, reinstate relationships and look forward."
