Fantasy

Fantasy is fiction that uses magic and other supernatural phenomena as a primary element of plot, theme, or setting and consistently pulls inspiration from real world mythology and folklore. It is generally distinguished by taking place in imaginary worlds and a lack of scientific themes. Although typically dominated by a medievalist form with dragons, knights, elves, dwarves, and sorcerers, fantasy follows rules of its own making and can take place anywhere.
