Answer 1

The plot is what happens in the book.

The conflict drives the plot.

For example:

Conflict: Joe and Jane both want the same cookie.

Plot: In his quest to attain the fabled marble chip cookie and foil his arch-nemesis Jane, Joe must travel the world, retrieve the scattered parts of the legendary cookie magnet, and reconstruct it.

The book description you give (The Doomstone) is the plot. The conflict is: a creature is killing people.

Answer 2

Many conflicts can make up and be within a plot.

The plots of most stories centers around conflict. A conflict is a struggle between opposing forces. There are two main kinds of conflict in stories: external and internal.

Answer 3

Plot is the sequence of events which involves the characters in conflict.

The Plot is like a river,
Flowing to the sea,
Whether fast or slow,
The choice is up to thee,

The Conflict is a bend,
Whether dam or boulder,
A change applied to vector[math/physics],
