"High fantasy" can mean one of two things. When contrasted with low fantasy, it refers to fantasy that uses a relatively high level of magic. In such high fantasy, wizards may be common, or perhaps many people have access to magical items. These stories tend to emphasize the use of magic by protagonists to overcome obstacles.

Such moral concepts take on objective status, and are not relative to the one making the judgement. See also:

Grendel's attacks on the Heorot estab ...
