A prologue is an explanatory text or information presented to the reader or audience. It establishes the setting or basis for the presentation.
A prologue is a passage before the actual beginning of the story that can be used to introduce characters, explain past events or history that might need to be explained, or capture the reader's attention. It's the part you can use to provide any information relevant to your story without have to go through flashbacks or unneeded conversation in your first few chapters.
