Question

which detail from \echo and narcissus\ is a part of narcissuss backstory?
○ as the year went by, the mountains were once again covered with the pale green leaves of spring.
○ although his good looks still charmed both fairies and mortals alike, his heart was given to no one.
○ hours later, his stomach began to grumble, and narcissus remembered that he had not eaten lunch.
○ the only sound was the hum of crickets and bees and the occasional tweets of birds overhead.

Explanation:

A backstory provides context about a character's traits, history, or core qualities before the main plot events. The correct option describes Narcissus's established personality trait of being uninterested in others despite his charm, which is part of his backstory. The other options are either setting details or temporary, plot-specific events, not backstory.

Answer:

B. Although his good looks still charmed both fairies and mortals alike, his heart was given to no one.
