It's Wrong!

The falling action is the series of events that occur after the climax and lead to the resolution or denouement of the story. It is where the loose ends of the plot are tied up and any remaining conflicts are resolved. This is the stage where the tension and suspense start to decrease, and the story begins to wind down towards its conclusion. The falling action is essential in providing closure to the story and giving the reader a sense of resolution.
