@highfantasy ancient asian settings or something from the renaissance period or from africa/latin america.

@highfantasy I really enjoy fantasy from other cultures in general, but especially ancient Asian settings. The interplay of history, culture, and an entirely different perspective makes the story even more interesting to me.

Question of the Week Post for Wattpad:
Hail, High Fanatics!
It's time for our Question of the Week!
(Apologies for missing last week)
**Breaking Traditions**
What "traditional aspects" of high fantasy do you consider 'sacred and unbreakable' (if any) and which do you enjoy shaking the LEGO box and ignoring the instructions for? For example:
Beautiful elves and bearded dwarves?
Steam power or electricity?
How much tech is too much tech?
Gunslingers or bows-and-arrows only?
Bonus: Have you read a high fantasy story (on Wattpad or elsewhere) that did a great job breaking a mold? Share!

@highfantasy I have trouble with Sci Fi elements in Fantasy. The two genres are so similar, to me, so I guess I have a hard line drawn in my mind about what constitutes Fantasy versus what constitutes Sci Fi. Magic is Fantasy; science is Sci Fi. Elves are Fantasy; zombies are Sci Fi. That kind of thing. Actually, @HeideHunt's book "A Book Nerd's Guide to Falling in Love" was a mold-breaker for me, because the fantasy element is so understated. I'm used to very in-your-face magic, and this very subtle idea that a single book in a library can work its way through a community and make people fall in love with reading is really intriguing to me.
