The idea
The glossary defines narrator in a single word: storyteller. That brevity is useful, because it makes no assumption about whether the narrator is a character, is trustworthy, or is present in the events. All three of those are separate questions.
In practice
Storyteller, and nothing assumed.
Where people slip
Three further questions stay open.
