Creative work so profound, narrative ends (3)
I believe the answer is:
ode
'creative work' is the definition.
'ode' can be an answer for 'work' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'creative' bit.
'so profound narrative ends' is the wordplay.
'ends' indicates one should take the final letters.
The final letters of 'so profound narrative' are 'ODE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ode that I've seen before include "(Railway)system" , "Poem expressing noble feelings" , "Poetic composition" , "Verse form" , "Lyric poem" .)
