The nightmare appears in the plot not merely as fear but in which role?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: An opportunity that reveals father's hidden love

The nightmare is important because it changes the reader’s understanding of Kezia’s father. At first, Kezia sees him as a frightening and strict man. When she wakes after the nightmare, she is afraid and needs comfort. Her father does not scold her at that moment. Instead, he brings her close, gives her warmth, and allows her to sleep beside him. This action reveals that his stern outer manner hides genuine care and love.

Option D is correct because the nightmare becomes a turning point in the plot. It does not stop Kezia’s studies, criticise the Macdonald family, or result from Grandmother’s plan. The frightening dream creates a situation in which the father’s protective side becomes visible. Through this experience, Kezia begins to revise her earlier opinion. The episode therefore connects fear with discovery: the nightmare is frightening in itself, but its deeper narrative role is to reveal affection and begin the child’s emotional change.
