I think to get past the modernity effect on fantasy you need to go back to Dunsany. Where gnoles obviously live just outside of reality and yet placenames are muddled with real ones by the...

Not to sidetrack the discussion, but someone mentioned Atlantis. Did Greyhawk (either in the original campaign or as it was presented in the Folio/Boxset) have its own version of Atlantis?Paladin of...
