The correct answer is D. protagonist. Explanation: Stefano is the protagonist, which makes him the main character of the story. As the protagnist, he is who the story centers around and is the driving force that keeps the plot going. The antagonist is the Colomber, the fish that follows Stefano throughout his entire life, which (according to Stefano's father) saw Stefano as a potential victim.
