Plot

Essentially a story’s plot is what happens during a conflict. It is told from a point of view, in a setting, about a series of events. One story that perfectly exemplifies the conventional narrative is the first Harry Potter book. The exposition is from the start of the play until the owls start delivering Harry’s acceptance into Hogwarts. The rising action starts when he is visited by Hagrid (the inciting incident) and is introduced to the magical world. The climax is when Harry fights with Voldemort over the sorcerer’s stone because the suspense of the book reaches it’s peak. The falling action is very short but is all of the events that occur at Hogwarts after Harry defeats Voldemort and obtains the sorcerer’s stone. The denouement occurs on the train ride home when all is resolved.
