It depends slightly on the structure of the story. Most, however, appear near the beginning, perhaps after a short bit of exposition.

Look at most stories as a sort of mountain: picture this...

_(E)_(I)(R)/(C)\(D)

Or...

  • (E) Exposition
  • (I) Inciting Incident
  • (R) Rising Action
  • (C) Climax
  • (D) Denouement

The inciting incident typically occurs near the beginning of the story, serving as the event that sets the main plot in motion. It is a crucial moment that disrupts the protagonist's ordinary life and propels them into the main conflict of the narrative.
