<h3>What is a resolution?</h3>
A resolution is the final or conclusive part of a text that puts an end to all the queries and conflicts that arose in the course of the story.
In the passage, we can see that there is no concrete end that reveals the fate of the Vizir who was moved by greed to make the King doubt the honesty of the Douban.
The writer might have also omitted the resolution to make the reader engaged in the story and possibly create probable conclusions in his mind.
Complete passage:
"I am sure," said the king, "that this man is the most faithful and virtuous of men. If he wished to take my life, why did he cure me? Cease to speak against him. I see what it is, you are jealous of him; but do not think that I can be turned against him. I remember well what a vizir said to King Sindbad, his master, to prevent him from putting the prince, his son, to death." What the Greek king said excited the vizir's curiosity, and he said to him, "Sire, I beg your majesty to have the condescension to tell me what the vizir said to King Sindbad." "This vizir," he replied, "told King Sindbad that one ought not believe everything that a mother-in-law says, and told him this story." –“The Story of the Greek King and the Physician Douban,” Andrew Lang What is the most likely reason why the author does not include a resolution?
