Instead of defining who does what to whom, you must define how people can do various things to each other. Perhaps you object that this is too esoteric, too indirect to allow the richness of tone that a good story requires. If so, consider what a story really communicates. A story is an instance that communicates a principle. Luke Skywalker is a lie, but the movie's truths about growing up and facing the challenges of manhood are its real message.
Stories are literally false but they embody higher truths.
The instances they relate never happened, but the principles they embody are the truth that we appreciate. They are false in their data but true in their process. Given this, consider the nature of the communication between storyteller and audience. The storyteller seeks to communicate some truth, some principle of the human condition. Rather than communicate the truth itself, he creates a particular set of circumstances that instantiate the truth he seeks to communicate.
