Could someone define the category fantasy? I put a story in it, but I think I should have created a category medieval.

It's for stories set in a "fantasy" setting - worlds where magic exists, gods walk among men, etc...
A basic rule is "If it has advanced science, it's science fiction. If it has magic, it's fantasy." Though there are things like 'Modern Magic' (ie: magic exists in the modern world). There isn't much more to it than that - classic myths can be considered fantasy, worlds with non-human races are fantasy if they have magic as well... The list is rather long and I don't know if I'm explaining it properly.
