The protagonist is the central character who drives the plot forward and whose actions and decisions shape the story's outcome.

A theme is a broader, underlying idea or message that the story conveys, while a moral is a specific lesson or takeaway that the reader can learn from the story.

Exposition is used to provide background information and context, rather than to create suspense.

The resolution is the final part of the story where the main conflict is resolved and the protagonist's journey comes to a close.

Parallel character arcs are not commonly used in storytelling as they do not provide a clear sense of growth or change for the character.

Exposition is used to provide background information, introduce the characters, and establish the setting of the story.

The rising action is the part of the story where the conflict escalates and the tension builds, leading up to the climax.

Person vs. Nature is not a common type of conflict in modern storytelling as it is often seen as too simplistic and one-dimensional.

Alliteration is a literary device that uses the repetition of initial consonant sounds in a series of words, phrases, or lines. While it can be used for emphasis or to create a certain rhythm or tone, it is not as commonly used as other forms of figurative language such as metaphor, simile, or personification.
