Later, after the rules of the dragon and dungeon come out, more games and novels by the reference, and finally the formation of today we can think of a wizard mentioned fantasy orcs, knights, dragons and other related elements.

Cold knowledge: Western magical literature which are divided into several types?

I dare not try to write humorous fantasy, because writing funny is actually very difficult. Finally, there is the very popular Urban Fantasy now.
