fantasy genres

Fantasy genres involve stories set in imaginary worlds that often include magical elements, mythical creatures, and supernatural phenomena. These stories explore themes like heroism, good versus evil, and adventure, creating immersive environments distinct from the real world. Subgenres include high fantasy, with elaborate worlds and extensive lore (e.g., "The Lord of the Rings"), and urban fantasy, set in contemporary cities with magical elements. Fantasy encourages creativity, allowing authors to construct unique settings and rules that guide the story's events, making it a rich genre for imaginative storytelling that transports readers beyond everyday reality.
