take part in events, while the setting is not only part of, but also influences, the final story.

In common usage (e.g., a "film plot"), the word plot more often refers to a narrative summary, or story synopsis. The term plot originally served as a verb, as part of the craft of writing, referring to the writer devising and ordering story events. (A related meaning is the oldest: a character's planning of future actions in the story.)
