Abstract

Fantasy is a genre of literature that lies somewhere between imagination and reality. It is a world formed by magic, supernatural elements, jinn, fairies, and scientific wonders, where imagination and reality blend together. This fusion creates intrigue and impact in fantasy. An important aspect of fantasy is time- it exists beyond the constraints of time. Its heroes are not ordinary people but exceptional characters. Fantasy is written from the perspective of a third-person narrator, and its language is distinctive, woven with metaphors and symbols.
