Summary
"The Resurrection" part of the story is the most challenging for the writer as he has to have a climax and a change into a new world for the hero. The change shows a death and rebirth, and can be portrayed with a new personality. The climax can be a physical showdown or a difficult choice such as a sexual climax, musical crescendo, or highly emotional confrontation. Other types of climaxes include a quiet climax and rolling climaxes. Types of resurrection are the last chance for a hero to make a major attitude change, a potential misstep for a returning hero, proof of the claimant, sacrifice by the hero, and change and incorporation to show what the hero has learned throughout the journey.
