  61. The first keyword that stuck out to me was conflict because it is usually the major thing that happens in the story or the thing that the main character has to work through.

    The second key word I chose was resolution because the resolution isn't always something that works out for both sides. Most times both parties lose so much in order to reach that agreement.
