Most fantasy uses magic or other supernatural elements as a main plot element, theme, or setting. Magic and magical creatures are common in many of these imaginary worlds. Fantasy is generally distinguished from the genres of science fiction and horror by the expectation that it steers clear of scientific and macabre themes, respectively, though there is a great deal of overlap between the three, all of which are subgenres of speculative fiction., Subject: the druid of shannara, Relation: followed_by, Options: (A) 1944 (B) 23 (C) 8 (D) a (E) books (F) creatures (G) dare (H) deal (I) earth (J) elements (K) enslaved (L) epic (M) expectation (N) fantasy (O) fiction (P) four (Q) free (R) he is (S) heritage (T) is (U) january 8 (V) king (W) may (X) new york (Y) only (Z) or ([) original (\) outlawed (]) primitive (^) queen (_) s (`) science (a) science fiction (b) sorcerer (c) supernatural (d) the druid of shannara (e) the elf queen of shannara (f) the four (g) the world (h) themes (i) there is (j) three (k) time (l) trilogy (m) two (n) universe (o) when (p) without
