High fantasy
Mythic-toned fantasy in a fully secondary world, at epic scale: wars, gods, world-ending stakes.
High or epic fantasy is mythic-toned fantasy set in a fully secondary world, at epic scale: wars, gods and world-ending stakes, with magic and nonhuman races typically portrayed positively rather than as costs. The secondary world is the boundary line: low fantasy and urban fantasy both keep a foot in the mundane or real one.
