Concepts

A Domain Story document captures one narrative flow through a domain. The structure follows the original Domain Storytelling canon and exists at three levels: the story itself, the sentences inside it, and the elements – Actors, Work Objects, edges – inside the sentences.

This chapter walks through each concept on its own page:

• An Actor is someone or something that does things in the domain.
• A Work Object is something that gets produced, consumed, transferred, or transformed.
• A Sentence is one numbered unit of the story, drawn as a set of arrows between Actors and Work Objects.
• A Group is an arbitrary cluster of elements the story wants to mark together.
