13. Build-up The build-up starts to introduce a storyline for the main character. More characters will be introduced, or a new setting. It may involve giving some clues to what might happen later in the story.

14. Dilemma The dilemma can also be known as the problem. Each fairy-tale has some sort of problem which needs to be overcome. What story problems can you think of?

15. Resolution The resolution is where the story starts to solve the problem. Most resolutions involve thinking sensibly about the problem, or involving a new character that can help.
