Abstract

The objectives of this research article were to the fantasy in Alina's Nawahimapan novel series. This is a qualitative analysis of two fantasy-themed titles, Tutiyaasun and Ekathep. According to the study's findings, fantasy in books about Tutiyaasun and EkaThep can be classified into three types: fantasy through characters, fantasy through supernatural items, and fantasy scenes. There are two types of characters: those with supernatural powers and those who are supernatural beings. Second are five types of fantasy through supernatural items scenes: namely bows, amulets, poisons, magic blossoms, and magic necklaces. There are two types of fantasy scenes: realistic scenes and fantasy scenes, which communicate the fantasy through the essential elements of the story, such as characters, supernatural objects, and scenes.
