What is a "dénouement"?

A dénouement is the final part of a story where the complexities of the plot are resolved, and the narrative reaches its conclusion. It follows the climax and provides closure by tying up loose ends and addressing any remaining conflicts or questions. In this phase, the consequences of the characters' actions are revealed, and the story's final outcomes are explained. For example, in a mystery novel, the dénouement might reveal the identity of the culprit and explain how the crime was committed.
