Winner:  Fantasy

"Within the smoking ruins of Keister Castle, Princess Gwendolyn stared  
in horror at the limp form of the loyal Centaur who died defending her  
very honor; “You may force me to wed,” she cried at the leering and  
victorious Goblin King, “but you’ll never be half the man he was.”
