about princesses and princes; fairies, elves, witches,
sorceresses, magicians, with magical frogs, birds, snakes,
lions, tigers, bears, and dragons; in faraway kingdoms or dynasties; on farms,
in towns, in palaces and castles, in deep forests, dry deserts, thick jungles, by rushing rivers, on high mountains, in the wide sky or the open Milky Way; with heroes, heroines, gods, goddesses, and mythical beasts; or just plain everyday folk and animals traveling through other realms.
