What is the purpose of an epilogue?

To provide the reader with closure
To introduce a new character
To provide background information about the characters
To provide additional information about the story

The correct answer is: To provide the reader with closure

An epilogue is typically used at the end of a story to tie up loose ends and give the reader a sense of closure about the plot and characters. Option B is incorrect because introducing a new character at the end of a story would not serve the purpose of wrapping up the story. Option C is incorrect because providing background information about the characters is typically done at the beginning of a story, not at the end. Option D is also incorrect because providing additional information about the story can be done throughout the narrative, not just at the end.
