<h3>What happens in "The Storyteller"?</h3>
In "The Storyteller," by Saki:
- An aunt and her nieces and nephew travel by train.
- A bachelor is in the same carriage as they are.
- The aunt tries to keep the children quiet.
- She tells them a story with a moral lesson at the end.
- The bachelor tells them another story, which contradicts the moral lesson.
- The aunt is furious at the bachelor.
The aunt in "The Storyteller" is unaware of her flaws. She does not understand that, to keep the children quiet, she must find ways to entertain them. That is precisely what the bachelor does.
The aunt complains that it is difficult to tell children stories. However, she also criticizes the bachelor's story, saying it is improper. She does not admit that the bachelor told a better story than she did.

Answer:
"She rattled on cheerfully about the shooting and the scarcity of birds, and the prospects for duck in the winter. To Framton it was all purely horrible."
Explanation:
From the book "The Open Window" by Saki, there is a narrative of Framton waiting for Mrs Sappleton and during his wait, he gets talking with her niece who informs him that there was a tragedy that happened.
She tells him that Mrs Sappleton's husband and two brothers went out for hunting but never came back but since the incident, Mrs Sappleton is still not over the shock and acts as if they would walk in anytime that's why she always leaves the window open till dusk, waiting for them.
This is an example of a situational irony because a situational irony is a type of irony in which the action has an opposite effect on what is intended.
Framton's discovery of the tragedy by the niece is an opposite of what he expected when he came looking for Mrs Sappleton.
