What Is The Climax Of The Alchemist

In a storyline, the climax is the point when the protagonist has lost all hope. And how they deal with that, whether it is giving up or continuing to fight, can show what type of person they are. Leading up to the climax, the alchemist tells the chief of the war tribe that Santiago can turn himself into the wind and demolish his whole camp. The chief says he wants to see him do the impossible act, and gives Santiago three days to prepare. If Santiago could not complete the task, the chief was allowed to take the alchemist and the boy’s lives. After three days of preparing for his task with the alchemist, they both return to the camp. From the start Santiago believed he was going to lose his life because he assumed his undertaking was not possible.
